Been coming to Metropolis since they first opened 20 years ago. They have INCREDIBLE coffee - roasted to peak flavors (unlike a certain national brand, no names *cough cough*) so that you can really taste the differences between the varietals and blends. Mocha Java is my favorite for everyday drinking. They have fanastic cold brew. Get the Spice Island or Hullabaloo (holiday blend) for the perfect coffee to complement holiday sweets (or anytime sweet desserts). And they have decaf coffees that taste like proper full-on-caffiene coffee, which is quite an accomplishment, as most decafs tend to be quite bland.
I hope that they will eventually change their K-cups to using the paper-filter bottom style instead of the current plastic style. The paper-filter-bottom K-cups give far more flavor to coffee than the traditional/classic plastic style. And with Metropolis, you deserve to taste every last drop of goodness from their great coffees.
Having lived in the neighborhood for ten years, Metropolis has always been around. I've stopped in for meetings, coffee, to work, etc over the years. In the most recent months, I've worked here more often to get out of the house. I just find it difficult to get connected to their internet sometimes. They have two wifi's and I feel like they bounce between the two which will work. I've had to ask college students working here, who have trouble as well.
A real gem! The food and drinks are delicious, the staff is friendly and skilled, and the ambience is cozy and charming. I especially love the wall art and the diverse and welcoming atmosphere. Lots of locals and students working and studying and chatting. I love Metropolis and come here whenever I'm in Chicago!
