Cafe Metro
“It gets insane at lunch time but at least you won't waste your break in line.”
“They have lots of fresh ingredients to choose from- I normally roll with the kale base and then add broccoli, brussel sprouts, squash carrots and corn.”
“You dont know what additives or fillers are going into their coy, unassuming, 'lobster salad'.”

Went here for breakfast and ordered two eggs over easy with home fries and toast. Decent meal with no surprises. The restaurant does appear to ration items like napkins and butter, which are obtainable at the register. They featured both indoor and outdoor dining areas.
I have gotten a quick breakfast here (the cafe is in the ground floor of my office building) as well as many a lunch. This review is mostly on soup/salads – I have yet to try their hot lunch.
The soup is $5-6 for a medium depending on if you go "premium" or not… quite expensive for the quality. I do appreciate that most are lower in sodium than other to-go soups and that they post if there is dairy and if a soup is vegetarian or not.
The salads are made in front of you – the lines are amazingly long at the rush hour, so go around 12pm or 2pm to avoid waiting 30 minutes for your salad to be made. Also – I recommend getting dressing on the side, as when the guys squirt in your dressing, sometimes they overdo it…
Overall – pricey for a quick bite but I frequent it because it saves me from going out in -3 degree weather!
Cafe Metro is a decent priced spot to get some good food in a good location smack in the middle of Metrotech. This place has some competition with other great spots such as Panera bread, Starbucks, and other good spots in the area. The staff was ok, not overly excited to be there but cordial at least. The food was better than I expected and I'm sure I will return again for breakfast or lunch.
I stopped by here for breakfast and was really happy with what I got. I had an omelette made with home fires and toast and it was all really delicious and way too much food. I was really happy about the prices of the food as well since these items can sometimes be on the pricey side. I would definitely go back and try this place for lunch because they had some re made sandwiches out that looked really yummy. Definitely a spot I would check out again.
When I am on lunch break (and I'm only allowed 30 mins sadly) I don't have the time to wait in line or deal with food being made from scratch. This is the place I go to during that lunch hour rush. I am in and out instantly (except for the check-out line). I usually pick a pre-made sandwich which they pre heat for me and never had a complaint. While waiting for the sandwich, I get soup usually Turkey Chili. Still trying to get my hands on the New England Clam Chowder which they keep running out by the time I get there. After all set and done, I get 20 min to myself before I'm back in front of a computer screen.
I used to not like Cafe Metro at all because I thought it was overpriced, but after going to other restaurants for a salad; I realized Cafe Metro is a lot more cheaper and there's a lot to choose from if your building a customized salad.
Since I've developed a liking for kale – I've been coming here a lot more and all their toppings and salads are fresh. They come in regular or large bowl and even a regular bowl you can get a lot of toppings and be extremely full afterwards!
The salad line can be out the door at times and slow, but it all depends what time you go. So glad I gave Cafe Metro another shot!
Quick and friendly service. Even during the busy times, you can get in and out of this place in no more than 5 minutes. Good for breakfast and lunch.
This is a good option to have around the Metrotech area for a quick lunch. They are slightly overpriced but the place seems clean and the food is decent.
I have tried their sandwiches,their burgers,their salads and a few of the soups and though none of them were spectacular,they were tasty enough and did serve their purpose of satisfying my hunger. I especially like the option of a soup and half sandwich combo.
The portion sizes seem a little small for the price.The service is quick and to the point.I can see myself coming here a lot this winter,mostly because this is one of the closest spots to my work that serves up a varied menu of hot soups and sandwiches.
