Leather and wood armchairs, waiters in uniform and air conditioning so high that you have to dress up to avoid getting sick. It seemed like a New York restaurant to me, even in terms of prices.to paraphrase. Good choice of wines, good cuisine too. For an evening with your sweetheart, if she likes it and with a good budget. Excessive.
Visiting the Costly Coffee Cafe was an indulgent experience that left a lasting impression. While the prices may be on the higher side, the quality of the coffee and overall atmosphere justifies the cost. The cafe exudes an upscale ambiance, providing a sophisticated and comfortable setting for patrons.
The staff's attention to detail and commitment to excellent service were notable. Each cup of coffee was crafted with precision, showcasing a rich and robust flavor profile. The extensive selection of coffee beans from around the world highlighted the cafe's dedication to delivering a premium coffee experience.
In addition to the exceptional coffee, the cafe's menu offered a variety of delectable treats that complemented the beverages perfectly. The presentation of the food and drinks was aesthetically pleasing, adding to the overall sensory delight of the visit.
While the Costly Coffee Cafe may not be an everyday indulgence due to its higher prices, it undoubtedly provides a luxurious escape for those seeking a special treat. For coffee enthusiasts willing to invest in a premium experience, this cafe is a must-visit destination, offering a memorable blend of quality, ambiance, and top-notch service.
This review is purely for their 1.mocha cold coffee. 2. Food price
Please, DO NOT have this coffee as their name does not justify the taste. It taste so pathetic especially with that Hershey’s chocolate syrup. Thir coffe cost me Rs 289/-. You can have the same coffee at Paul’s (Paul’s iced mocha) which is 10 times better than the one i ordered at United Coffee house, quantity of coffee is more at Paul’s and the price is tad bit less (Rs 275/-) than the one United coffee house charges.
Food is overpriced. We had 6 dim sums, 1 english breakfast tea and the mocha cold coffee, cost us Rs1200/- approx.
You can have a good meal at the same price at Smoke House.
The experience was so bad i forgot to take photos of the food and / bill here in United Coffee house.
Here is my PoV on the place. It is caught between old world British fine dining and service, and a Punjabi dhaba, both being different spectrum of dining experiences. Caught in between UCH is unable to balance either, leading to a sub-par experience. This is the second time I have had the experience, and now I safely can say that the restaurant has a long way to go in service and food, both. The ambiance is tolerable, but nothing exciting or thematic that one can remember. I think the place can improve by many knotches if they pay heed to deciding which side of the spectrum do they want to be in - fine English world dining or Rustic Punjabi Dhaba style.
It allows you to see the Indian culture in detail because they make pre-English colonial food during and after. I really liked this feature and the waiters are very good, they deserve the tip.
Great restaurant with quality food, good staff and hygiene. Rates are fine and taste is good.must try crispy honey chilli. Huge space and lovely ambience. Good for regular foodies and family.
My favourite place to visit since so long and here food is just awesome.they serve hot and tasty food. I have been here several times.must visit I have tried Greek salad. All the dishes were tasty. (Happy fooding)
Some of the best authentic Old Delhi food if you don't mind the price- with well sourced coffee and authentic expertise (at least for the Indian cuisine: wouldn't vouch for the east Asian stuff)
It's always a delight to visit this place, though a bit on the costly side but you bet it's worth almost all the dimes.one of my loved café n restaurant.
Ambience is good and cozy but food is pathetic.no taste at all. I ordered kadhai paneer, achari gobhi.n it was bad.gobhi was absolutely bland n tasteless.kadhai paneer was super averagish. Lemonade was also nothing great. Not going there again.
The ambience and music was top notch, however, the hi tea platter was extremely dry and not fresh. The service was very ordinary and not worth the premium 12% service charge levied. Extremely disappointed with the experience especially since the decor was so perfect.
Centrally location, lovely ambience especially on 1st floor - very cozy, courteous and friendly service and delicious food! It's a lovely place to go and have a relaxed chat with your friends or special friend
Loved their Hazelnut Caffe Latte with extra milk on the side. One of the best milky coffees I have drunk outside my own house. We were impressed by the decor, the cleanliness and the friendly staff. Overall a very pleasant experience. Definitely worth a visit.
The place has not changed much over time and remains a good dinning experience with family or friends. You can explore from indian, oriental to western cusine with great taste. I prefer their authentic Indian food.
Amazing authentic delicious food with a vintage ambience. Worth spending time and money. Superb staff and their service. Superb vintage interior walls and the music.
Iconic place in CP.the decor would certainly take you back to the British raj days in all its grandeur.food and drinks is typically on the expensive side but its a great place to dine in if you are looking for an experience.
The place has an old world, laid-back charm, a warm ambience laced with soothing Jazz tunes. Come here if you can spend atleast 3 hrs of your time for the meal. Great when you have a lot of playful banter to share.
Cold coffee with ice cream was good but their UCH sandwich with ham & chicken was very dry. But i would love to try their other English items in the menu.
The place was good.nice ambience.good food.slow service. It was pretty crowded, maybe because we visited on a weekend. The staff still tried to follow all norms and protocols. One thing which did not go down well with us was that the Voluntary Service Charge was converted to a mandatory one. Even though we had a good dining experience and we had no qualms about paying the service charge, what irked us was that we were forced to bear it, just because the staff wanted us to. When we enquired about the same, one of them just told us "yaha pe to dena padta hai". Since we were expecting better, the overall experience was definitely not in good taste.
I recently visited this place with my friends. We had cold coffee with icecream, fish fingers, non veg platter, butter chicken, hakka noodles, tiramisu and cheesecake. The food was amazing and the coffee was just perfect. The ambience is very beautiful.
Best cafe in cannaugt place. Amazing food and their classy ambience. A must place visit in CP. Their cold coffee is just mind blowing. Quality of food and service is worth every penny.

I recently went to this place to try delicious food we had cold coffee, Belgian chocolate shake and in main course we tried paneer khurchan, malai Kofta with Pizza paratha which was so good in taste the Mozzarella was melting in our mouth it is a must try.
I ordered mutton curry, apple pie, Darjeeling iced tea and Darjeeling second flash (hot). Mutton curry was so deep and sophisticated for the first time. It was the most delicious curry in my life. I drank Darjeeling tea from this restaurant, so I decided to buy Darjeeling tea leaves and go home. It was a wonderful scented black tea. The service was also kind and courteous, providing a safe space.
Visted this yesterday with my friends for dinner and I’m awestruck with royal feel and vibe. The food was lipsmacking and service was too good. Quality of the food and quantity of the portion size was also good. Out of the dishes I ordered i really liked drums of heaven and mutton seekh from the starters. Ambala wala mutton and butter chicken from the mains. Kala Jamun from desserts is a must try.
Would love to visit again and try out other dishes!
"ICONIC", 75 years of Legacy. Offers World Cuisine. Delicious food with attentive service. The Legendry fine dining experience. Great place to cherish your memories.
I would rate 4.5 stars only reason would be added of service charge which is optional. Food was exceptionally great and well served. I recommend what i ate. Bruschetta veg, Fajiyas cottage cheese veg sizzler. But mojito Virgin Sangria didn't met my pallets taste. Like some medicinal syrup. Great place to have dinner. Verh nice ambience. Polite staff. Good seating And soothing music. Could be waiting. So suggested either reserve your table or wait a bit
It's one of the most classiest/fanciest place I ever been to. The cold coffee here is really good and after tasting food here you would forget that you were born on earth. The place is definitely not cheap, if you thinking to get full in just 1000 rupees not the place for you honey. I think even the gaurd here have 10lpa package. Really good place to throw parties for your friends. The place have a bar so do remember to get a little tipsy # bon appetite
Very poor service and tired waiters seem to be struggling. The packing was also lousy. The sandwich i had packed had no fries/ chips which are part of the menu and there was no cloeslaw packed either! Lost situation. Just felt very awkward. Poor customer satisfaction.
Excellent place to dine in. Awesome ambience, and awesome food. I have been going there for around past 10years. And it always lovely to be there. Service is very good. I am sure you will love once you visit it.
Not a satisfactory one as the pizza i ordered was served cold with a thick crust and not at all a good taste, regret spending money unnecessarily just for the sake of brand name.
I have been a couple of times. It's one of the oldest in the city still standing tall and proud. My favorite here is #Morning breakfast with scrambled eggs and coffee. Also, I love here #Non veg, #Veg platter, #Belgian Choco shake. #Vanilla and Caramel shake is one of the over priced shake here which I don't prefer much. It's an expensive place but I like the ambience and the service here. Definitely worth a visit if you haven't visited here yet.
Very unprofessional, charge illegal service charges if u insist only then they remove service charges from bill, their manager Mr Anish's behaviour was very rude, also took more than 50 mins to serve food.dont go there, go somewhere else if u want good hospitality
Sat for 15 minutes, waiting for someone to take the order, told 4 different people, but no one was interested. Walked out - very poor service, and overpriced food
This place is always on my mind! love the classy woody ambiance of this place.we generally go for good coffee and snacks.vegetable spring rolls, makai malai seekh and kababs are really amazing.place is perfect for family and friends both.veg and non veg options both are available.
Different outlets have different ambience. The ones I've been to is in CP and in Cyber Hub. In both the outlets, I've loved the ambience and the food! It's a little expensive, but the amount of food you get! Highly recommended to go there with your family and friends.
Fine Dining Multi Cuisine Restaurant with Bar serving since Pre Independence Era. One can walk in to regale with Hot & Cold Non Alcholic Beverages with befitting snacks & for those having sweet Tooth their King Size Gulab Jamun is treat to watch & Enjoy in the company of near & dear ones may be the date as well.
Food quality is average. Atmosphere too noisy. Seating arrangement is improper. Most irritating is that the same waiter would be serving veg, non veg and wine.
A decent place to sit and spend some time with your friends, family or colleagues. The combos are more economical than separate meals. Had tea and English breakfast for 1k for two people. The taste is also decent.
Over hyped it is.you can get much better food at other places.they serve only handful of beers, don't go by looking at the menu.expensive and not good food.
One of the best fine-dine places in CP. Food is always awesome no matter what you order. Have been there twice and the experience was great. Nice decor and overall ambience. Highly recommended.
