It works for me with David M. Karr's suggestion. To be more specific,

Go to Ubuntu 16.04 All Settings (mechanic gear icon), Click on Appearance... All Settings"->"Appearance"->"Behavior" and change the "Show the menus for a window" setting: Check both of the following: 1. In the window's title bar and 2. Always displayed.

I had the same problem today. I found the answer in Ask Ubuntu. It fix my system. I just execute this command on dash:

$ initctl restart unity-panel-service

You're only showing the Eclipse window. Apparently, Ubuntu will default to showing the application menu bar in the desktop status bar, instead of the application window. Go to "Settings"->"Appearance"->"Behavior" and change the "Show the menus for a window" setting. Even then, you will only see the menu if you hover the mouse there.
