The artwork is so interesting and I spent the first 15 minutes just looking around! I tried the Sweet Potato Pie latte and it was amazing. So I broke my rule of having only one cup of coffee a day and try the Taffy Apple latte and it was equally amazing! The owner gave me a half off discount on my second cup. He was so nice and took the time to chat with me about his business and his hopes for expanding his hours. He was so kind. I love the seating spaces. This will be a great place to work remotely, to go with a group of friends and have a book club meeting, to just go and relax yourself and get some reading done. I really love this space! Also, coffee drinkers will appreciate this bonus.... There is no upcharge for milk alternatives!!! Definitely check this spot out!

Highly recommended.

I had the dulce de leche latte with oat milk, and it was so good. I really enjoyed it and it had the right amount of espresso strength. The barista was nice and friendly.

I would return when in the Pilsen area.

Love their pour overs and how they take the time to brew each cup. The workers are knowledgeable about the coffee you ask about and the vibe of the space is quick and fast pace. Similar to another place I went, visited Metric twice--once on a weekday and once on the weekend. Since it's near a bunch of semi-trucks, it's a bit busier on the weekday if you hit the time when the trucks are parking or moving in and out. The weekend, it was a bit easier to get around. A lot of side street parking here!

It's a comfy, quiet little coffee shop with new but pleasant workers, good coffee, some light snacks that could be lunch. The one thing I don't like is that this place doesn't allow the workers to take tips. Unless they are getting paid over $15 an hour, that's not right.

None of them were particularly exceptional, but they serve their purpose of caffeinating (if that be your goal). I believe they use the same roast for all 3 of those drinks, which is a bright, acidic roast. If you're into that sort of taste, then this place will suit your needs. The employees are hit or miss. I've had a couple good experiences and a couple poor experiences--not rudeness, but not an inviting, pleasant attitude. It wouldn't keep me from coming to this location, but it is a bit of a letdown to be served by someone who doesn't seem to want to serve. All in all, I enjoy this coffee and the employees more than the alternative around the bend from here, but it won't become my go-to stop for now. For now, I prefer walking to Starbucks, although I don't consider myself a Starbucks person.
