Metropolitan Bakery

Had a fantastic sandwich today at Metropolitan today. Also tried the Cuban coffee. That was amazing. My new go to coffee and sandwich place. You've got to try this GREAT little spot!

This place a neighborhood gem. Bread always good. Sandwiches poppin with an excellent café vibe

Hard pass. I started coming into this establishment because it made me happy to have a local small business close to where I work/study. Unfortunately, they’ve gone through some changes on the menu, supposedly fresher ingredients etc. But the quality has just become more subpar: pastries are stale, sandwiches are tasteless not sure how fresh the ingredients are. The staff is inefficient so be ready to wait a while for the most basic order. They just can’t keep up with the demand. I recently ordered a sandwich, waited 15 minutes for a wrong order though I appreciate they give a heads up that they are slow but that’s over the top especially because of they’re not understaffed. The cashier is lovely and courteous, but not the other ones so that’s just rubbing the wrong way. Overall don’t go! Walk a little further on Chesnut to get better options!

Major changes to metro U City. If you used to come here and love it, be aware it is nothing like it used to be. Entire experience was a disaster. Flies everywhere. No more long list of specialty lattes/drinks. Out of sausage at 9:30AM...? No longer using the rewards card where your 10th coffee / sandwich are free. When I asked about this and the drink list they looked at me like I was crazy and said "we've never had a snickerdoodle latte" etc. No longer bring drinks to you. No longer bring the food to you. No longer used plates. Trash bass music playing this is coming from a Bassnectar fan. 25 minute wait for latte- no "sorry for the wait." So sad.

I absolutely love this bakery/cafe! They have freshly baked items everyday, amazing sandwiches made to your liking and tons of homemade goods like pastries, cream cheese, and sweets. Their coffee is really good too. I usually have a latte here and it's pretty bold and flavorful. I believe it is run by a couple who are super friendly and warm. This is located across from the Panera Bread and movie theater. It's a small cafe but still has room for seating indoor and outdoor. I highly recommend this place, it'll become a favorite!

I never write reviews but I’m making an exception for my new favorite place. They are just far enough away that its not really convenient for me to walk there but I fully don’t care. The staff is so nice the food is so good, the baked goods are incredible. 10/10 really great place, love it.

Pretty darn great. You'd be hard pressed to find a better cafe in philly. They have got quality breakfast sandwiches and they also have delicious artisanal breads.

Good coffee, good bakery and relatively short waiting line!! Just realized that this photo got over 1 million views and it's the first to pop-up on the maps!!!

We came across this place on our recent visit to Philly. So glad we found it as the coffee, sandwiches and bagels are delicious and great value. We visited most days. All the staff are great too and super helpful. Definitely recommend this place and we will be back on our next visit! Thank you

Really good coffee. Food and baked goods are just as great. The chocolate cherry bread - there's a reason why it sells out all the time. The people inside are top notch as well. I love this place.
