The Design Museum of Chicago and Metropolis Coffee Company proudly present... The Chicago Blend; a signature brew designed to celebrate the people, communities, artists and designers that make up our Metropolis — the one we call Chicago. Roasted daily along the shores of the mighty Chicago River, these beans are as bold as a drunk fan at a Bears game, as sweet as the 72 hours of decent weather between June 8th and 11th and as reliable as the old friend who helps you move to the top floor of a multi-flat greystone. In January. One Chicago. One Metropolis. One Bean.
We aim to create an approachable environment where everyone has a seat at the table and the bean benefits all.
With every brew, we pour our passion and expertise into designing a cup of coffee with your pleasure and tastes in mind.
All our coffee is purchased at or above fair trade price from transparent and sustainable brokers and farmers.
As coffee nerds, we have a quirky outlook sourced from the early days of science fiction, fantasy, and lore.
Our favorite of the moment. Smooth, easy to drink, with just the right amount of brightness.
Really enjoying this blend. Smooth, nice roast. And the grind was great for our flat bottom coffee maker. I'd prefer to grind myself, but need to cut out some steps in the morning. Need my metropolis as quick as possible in the AM!
This is a dely hood cup of coffee. Great flavor, low acidity due to the right combination of beans
This is definitely a Metropolis original. I've never had any coffee like this anywhere else. It's bold and complex. I like it best with dessert after a big meal.
Good flavor, better taste hot as opposed to iced coffee
That coffee on your doorstep? It’s freshly roasted to order—that’s the Metropolis promise.
