Metropolis Coffee Company

About

Metropolis Coffee Company is a Chicago roaster with a cafe at 1039 W. Granville Ave. in Edgewater, half a block from the Granville Red Line stop. The company roasts on Rockwell Street and pours the results at the Granville cafe as espresso and brewed coffee, alongside savory and sweet snacks from local makers. The cafe sells local artwork, has indoor and patio seating and takes mobile orders, and the room fills with Loyola students during the semester.
