There is nothing more relevant today to consumers than price.  According to Steven Johnson Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions®, “if you want to garner new customers and or increase the frequency of customer visits you had better be honed in on the price you charge for everything.”

Urban Plates understand just how relevant pricing is too consumers. At a time when many restaurants are raising prices, the chef-driven concept, is doing the opposite. Urban Plates recently announced it is dropping prices on a selection of some of the restaurant’s most popular salads, sandwiches, and bowls. Additionally, Urban Plates has expanded its Everyday Value Menu to include 13 meals for under $13.

Ok, the selection of meals with lower prices include: 3 Chicken Tender Plate with two sides; 6 Chicken Tender Feast with 2 house made dipping sauces and grilled artisan bread; Salmon Caesar Salad; Steak Salad; Chicken Cobb Salad; and Chicken Caesar Salad.

Expanding relevance, Urban Plates has also expanded the lineup of items on its Everyday Value Menu and revamped prices to start at just $9.95. The 3 UP Plate, which includes a choice of three scratch-made sides, the Caesar Salad, and the House Salad are all just $9.95.

Now there are other affordable options, now all under $13, include: an all-new 2 Chicken Tender Plate; Moroccan Chicken Braise; Beets + Avocado Bowl; Chargrilled Cheeseburger + Fries; Grilled Chicken Sandwich; Portobello Mushroom Sandwich; Crispy Chicken Tender Sandwich; Nashville Hot Chicken Tender Sandwich; Chili Glazed Grilled Tofu Bowl; Local Mixed Beet Salad; and the 4 UP Plate for those who want to make a meal of four scratch-made sides.
