Metropolitan Coffee is such a cute hidden gem tucked away in Old Brooklyn. You can really tell they…read morecare about quality--everything is made from scratch, even the flavor syrups, and they use Rising Star beans. The menu has some standout breakfast options you don't see often around here, like loaded grits (a rare Southern find in this area). The grits were absolutely amazing--definitely my new go-to breakfast craving. The blueberry cream cheese muffin totally lived up to the hype too: moist, sweet, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the seasonal strawberry mocha. The coffee itself was smooth and well-made, though the strawberry flavor was a bit subtle. The vibe is one of the best parts--lots of seating, a mix of people working and chatting, and the kind of cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. They also host yoga twice a week (Thursdays and Sundays) and fun events like game nights, which adds to the community feel. Definitely a spot worth lingering in.

They also had a small selection of food items, and everything looked scrumptious. I ordered a spicy latte paired with a chocolate brownie (perfect choice), and the combination was comforting with just the right kick. The atmosphere is what truly sets this café apart. It's designed in a way that makes you want to stay for hours -- calm, relaxing, and easy to get lost in. I'm already looking forward to stopping by again next time I'm in the neighborhood.

From the time I ordered to getting all of my items (2 coffees and 2 food items) I was in there for almost an HOUR! There was NO communication at all. When I finally asked for an update waiting on my last drink (20 min after receiving my first drink) they just said sorry we are catching up. No sorry we are busy or sorry we had an issue with our machine nothing. They weren't abnormally busy, your typical Saturday morning. I get it that things happen and sometimes you have delays. I try to be empathetic to those in the service industry cause I know they deal with some tough people. I am not sure if there was an issue with their equipment or they were short staffed. But the wait and zero communication was ridiculous.

As for my espresso - temped correctly with bright acidity at the front, finishing smooth with notes of tart cherry, dark chocolate and molasses.

I'm so conflicted with my review of this place. I really…read morewanted to fall in love because of how spacious and cozy the interior is - and because of how friendly the staff was! But I'll start with the bad. I got an iced Americano. The espresso was fine, but there were so many coffee grounds in my drink that kept getting in my mouth with every sip. Also tried their iced matcha latte. If you're a fan of matcha, skip this place. Pretty sure they use pre-made matcha. They said it's already pre-sweetened when I was ordering because I asked for no sweetener or syrups. It wasn't very good :/ Finally I'm a sucker for home baked goods. So I got a blueberry muffin. It's definitely store bought. Tasted like the kind you can get from Walmart. Definitely not bad, just wasn't what I was hoping for. But the inside is beautiful. I would love to sit and stay a while if their drinks or pastries were any good. Also the staff were wonderful! So nice and welcoming. Honestly there are so many other coffee shops that are so much better. I probably won't be back sadly. Overall rating: 2.8/10

There aren't any food options, so just a heads up. (There are a few bakery items that the worker said they purchased from the grocery store.) I ordered a vanilla latte. They have three sizes: 12, 16, 20 oz. I asked how many espresso shots were in them, and the worker said they all have 3 shots, no matter which size you order. Very odd. I asked what kind of bean they used, and the worker wasn't quite sure, but they weren't local or even a small business. Which is very disappointing to hear. My latte was very good though! And the place was so spacious. So for those reasons, I'd come again. But I'd never go out of my way to come here. Nothing too special !

The shop itself is super cute, one of those coffee spots where people clearly come to get work done. Not really a loud catch-up-with-friends place, but perfect for locking in with a laptop and a latte. The staff is incredibly nice, and you can genuinely taste the passion they have for coffee in every sip.
