The Metropolitan Coffeehouse

"I've lived here for 20+ years. They served us the Thanksgiving sandwich on toasted cranberry ciabatta *stone cold.* The real issue was how the staff handled it, specifically the cashier. The description on the menu is "in-house roasted turkey breast sliced and served on a bed of warmed cranberry herb stuffing with cranberry aioli." Description definitely has the word "warmed" in it. My dad brought the food over to our table and we could feel through the paper wrapping that they were cold. I took our sandwiches straight back to the cashier and asked if they could please be warmed up. Simply all I asked. Cashier started arguing with me about whether or not I asked for them to be warmed up when I ordered them. I said, my dad ordered these sandwiches, not me. We would just like them warmed up, please. Simple ask. Simple solution. No need to argue. The nice young man working in the back in the kitchen did me a solid and threw them into the toaster oven. I am annoyed that my dad tipped $5 for $35 worth of food and coffee and then we got treated this way. I also ordered a pastry, and they asked me if I wanted it warmed up, and they handed it to me nice and room temp, not warmed up at all. I have lived here since I was a teenager and we love to support local business. My family runs a local business too. But I can't say that we will be back."

"Cute little cafe in the area. I tried the vanilla iced latte which was strong and delicious. The avocado toast was good too and the egg & cheese bagel was worth it!"

"The Met has got to be one of the best coffee shops in this whole area of New Hampshire. Last time we visited, people told us about this place, so when we came back, we gave it a shot and were very impressed! This is right in the center of all the action in North Conway, it’s a 2-story coffeehouse with a great selection of food and drinks, great service, and a really nice atmosphere both inside and out. We got a mango smoothie, white peach cream lotus energy drink, and their hot gingerbread apple cider. The apple cider was AWESOME - one of the best we ever had. The mango smoothie was exactly what we wanted (really good) and the energy drink was awesome! It’s way better than canned energy drinks you get at the store. We had already eaten lunch beforehand so we didn’t get a chance to try the food, but it looked really good on the menu, so we’ll have to try that next time. All in all, great place - you’ll definitely enjoy it!!"
