Metropolis Coffee Company is a vibrant indie café in Edgewater, famed for its stellar brews, cozy atmosphere, and delightful pastries.
"This family-owned coffee company does mostly wholesale business these days — its roastery is in Avondale — but the cafe where it all began is still in Edgewater, where it’s been for the past 18 years, and it’s still a friendly place to sit with a laptop or a book or a friend and sip coffee and maybe nibble a pastry (from Phlour) and watch the world go by." - Eater Staff, Ashok Selvam
"When it comes to iced coffee preparation, this family-owned company applies the same level of seriousness as it does for steaming hot cups. A neighborhood haven in Edgewater for 2003, Metropolis features potent draft cold brew and oat lattes for a dose of cool caffeine as well as rotating specials like iced French toast and “cereal milk” lattes." - Naomi Waxman
"When you want good coffee and can't have good coffee it sucks. Lucky for you, Metropolis has been serving Chicago with delicious blends and friendly baristas from their Roger's Park shop since 2007. Come on in, warm up or cool down with a delicious beverage from one of Chicago's best independent Coffee Roasters." - Sidekick Video

"This family-owned coffee company does mostly wholesale business these days — its roastery is in Avondale — but the cafe where it all began is still on Granville, where it’s been for the past 18 years, and it’s still a friendly place to sit with a laptop or a book or a friend and sip coffee and maybe nibble a pastry (from Phlour) and watch the world go by." - aimee.levitt, Eater Staff
