United Cafe Bar & Bistro

Friday for lunch at 1:00pm. Menu recently changed (don't know if due to new owner/mgmt). Ordered a "British Farmer's Platter" at a steep lunch price of $13.00. But, it sounded like it was worth it. Menu stated "served on a platter", chicken breast, pork, brie wedge, scotch egg, baguette bread. After a long wait, our server approached and said that our order was coming, that the egg was still in the oven.
What was served:  I received an approximately 8" square luncheon plate with a half of a scotch (hard boiled egg), 3 small wedges of Brie, 3 slices of baguette bread approx. 1.5"" by 1" and wait for it...2 slices of deli lunch meat ham and 2 slices of deli lunch meat turkey and garnish.
I told the server that this "platter" was listed on the menu as chicken breast and pork. She said she'd check the menu and get back to me. In the meantime we chuckled that technically ham was "pork" and maybe the deli turkey was deli "chicken". Anyway, server came back and here was the reason: "The owner lives in England and prints and sends us the menus, and in England that's what the Farmers platter is". WT? Really? Because the owner prints the menus and sends them, I just got screwed out of chicken breast and pork? The server said the chef would make me some chicken breast. But, nothing was said about the pork and I paid $13.78 for either an intentional ripping off or a menu misprint, I'm still not sure which and the people I had  lunch with were unclear as well. Stay away! Certainly no longer a "work crowd" friendly place and will rip-off unsuspecting tourists. Go to the Veranda, Broadway Bistro or French Connection. They are all honest businesses and I'm pretty certain would not lie about such a huge discrepancy on a menu listing and make it right if there was an honest mistake.

Cool and unique place that I'm happy I chose over Starbucks.  I enjoyed the everything bagel with roasted tomato, cream cheese and fresh bagel.  Extremely friendly and attentive service, fun decor and good music.  And the coffee is good.

Love the mocha cappuccino
