    Wide array of flavor options. The lavender latte was fantastic! Tasted better than my big city latte, bravo. My boys got cinnamon rolls and devoured them. Get this place on the map!!!

    Iced sugar cookie. So soft!

    Super-excited about these Super-awesome goodies from @sissys_asweetshoppe in the Super town of Metropolis, Illinois! I know, I know, that was Super-terrible, but my goodies were Super-fantastic! Ok, I'm done being Super. Blueberry pastry, good old sugar cookie with icing, and a strawberry lemonade cookie. Yuuuummm!! All excellent, but I think the sugar cookie was my favorite. Sissy's has more than just mentally nourishing food sweets!), there is physically nourishing sandwiches and salads, too, along with coffee, but I was just interested in the baked items. Park by the Superman statue and you can walk a few blocks down Main Street to Sissy's, taking in other cool stuff in Metropolis before (or after) you get your sugar fix or other needs met.

    This place rocks! It's accidental that we ended up in Metropolis and looking for a restaurant for breakfast and stumbled upon it. Their sweets are amazing, have not had like it before. I had almond croissant and wifey had walnut danish. We had to buy more to take home with us. Their coffees are better than Starbucks, at least the one we order regularly. This girl Brianna bakes them daily. We think she should supply coffee shops with it. If you are in the area, give it a try! No regrets here. Happy Eating!

    We stopped by after visiting the Superman store. We got a coffee and a pear chai tea. The tea was so good! My picky 10 year old even liked it. Would recommend. They had some other fun sounding lattes.

    I was working in Paducah, KY for the week but wanted to make a trip to Illinois for breakfast since I've never been to the state. Stopped at this place and it was so cute! Nicely decorated, really really nice employees, and the cutest desserts. I got the cinnamon bun and it was tasty and simple warmed up. Also picked up some peanut butter fudge for my coworker (and he loved it!) I recommend stopping by here if you make the trip to Metropolis because you're a block from Superman and can take a picture with this cute mural on the side of the wall!

    Great place! A block-ish from Superman. So unexpectedly quaint on the Metropolis downtown strip. Got a drip coffee which wasn't as hot as I like and the woman working made me a new pot without hesitation when I mentioned it. Appreciate that. Unfortunately, I'm rarely in the area, but if I needed a decent cup of coffee, a place to meet a friend, or a pleasant environment to sit with my laptop and work (free WiFi) I'd be at Sissy's.

    Such a cozy coffee shop & bakery. Lunch options also available. Their homemade soup is delicious. Love the gooey butter bars too!

    Spectacular sweets and great coffee. I've had some of the best breakfast pastries ever at Sissy's.

    These donuts are amazing. Very fresh. We had a glazed that just melted in your mouth! Small…read moreplace. The young man working was friendly and took care of us.

    I came to Red's Donut Shop after hearing for years how amazing it supposedly is. I genuinely wanted…read moreto like it. Instead, it ended up being one of the more disappointing bakery experiences I've had. We walked in to a display case that was almost empty and a line that felt more like a suggestion than anything organized. After waiting longer than expected, I ordered a French cake donut--what I received was surprisingly small, closer to a sample than something you'd expect to pay for. The service, though, was the real standout--and not in a good way. The employee helping us seemed clearly annoyed from the start. Basic, reasonable requests were met with visible irritation, and the overall attitude made it feel like we were inconveniencing them just by being there. That kind of interaction sticks with you more than the food does. What really added to the confusion was noticing trays of fresh, better-looking donuts behind the counter as we were leaving--none of which were available or mentioned while ordering. Yes, the prices are lower than other places, but the portions reflect that, and the service makes it hard to justify even a quick stop. I can understand people having fond memories of this place, but based on this visit, it doesn't hold up.
