Awesome produce, cheeses, meats, and other specialtyfoods. A bit expensive for some other things, great prepared food, too.
Had everything I needed plus a clean restroom.
love this little grocery store
I love the upmarket goods, presentation and service. Unfortunately shopping here is a "treat" as the prices are so much higher than elsewhere. They do stock Isernio's British Bangers, which is definitely worth an extra star and the gelato bar makes the pain of the pricing recede briefly. One highlight is the prepared food and hot food area, which seems to have some well above average ready meals and after to eat hot food.
Look - my visit here was brief, but I have never wanted so badly to return to a grocery store a second time. The produce was GORGEOUS and much of it was packed in cardboard rather than plastic (berries for instance). I liked that a lot. Got some beautiful rhubarb here, and walked around a tiny bit. Looks like the lower level has kitchen gadgets and there is an espresso bar on the main floor as well. Floral department was not huge but the flowers looked a very nice quality. AND there were tons of non food goodies in end caps and such, which makes it a great place to find a unique gift. I saw lots of cool stuff but couldn't really take a leisurely stroll through the store as i would have liked. I plan to return and will update my review. It is very possible this grocery store is a gateway to heaven....
Cleanest kitchens in the industry and friendliest staff. I should know as I worked there for years. Ask yourself that last time you saw someone who works at safeway buying fresh food from safeway? Odds are that when you come in to Met Kirkland you will see employees buying fresh meat, produce, and deli food. This is a testament to unrelenting quality standards from source to consumer. I buy fresh produce, meat/seafood, and deli items there regularly and always will.
Good Prime Rib sandwich!
Love the coupons that are sent out every month. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Love this store, it's beautiful. Most of the staff are really nice to interact with.
Nice clean market with a HUGE selection of yumminess!!
Amazing store with unique items. Great cheese counter. Excellent hot soup. Beautiful flowers. Fun store!
High quality foods for reasonable prices.
Best market to get all fresh and excellent quality.
ALWAYS Love being there.
Great selection of fresh and packaged goods, friendly staff. The prosecutor are higher than at some other supermarkets, but you're paying for that but of extra quality. Don't miss the bakery - they have some of the best cookies around.
I've been going there since a move to Kirkland about half a year ago, and always had good experience except for today. One of the bags was broken and I asked for a new one. And the cashier was very rude and stormed away afterwards. It was kind of scary! Will start to look for new places for grocery shopping..
Great market with everything. Nice prepared foods. A little pricey.
Awesome people who work here and the products are great. Best thing about it is it is open 24/7 unlike other larger retailers. A little on the pricey side but we'll worth it.
Prices are high for standard groceries, but you can find specialty/gourmet items that other places don't have. I enjoy their bakery highlights most. Try their bake at home garlic bread or "The Cookie" (omg the best and it even comes with its own shopper bag!).
The service at the counter is fats and very professional. The products there in are very fresh and good quality.
I stopped in to grab some food from the deli and it was delicious. I got the sesame noodles and pasta salad that were both delicious. Then I got one of their "the cookie" and see gelato which were both great! I usually prefer a milk chocolate cookie without nuts, but this was still good. The gelato was decent- nothing to write home about. Depending on what you get this place can be pretty pricey. I remember getting 3 peaches from here and paying like $7 for them which is ridiculous. I mean, granted they we're perfectly ripe and amazing g bit still. That's highway robbery! This time it wasn't too bad I think all together it ended up being like $12 so I didn't feel ripped off. Really really delicious food and treats!
Great products high prices
This is the lovely market in Kirkland. It's a lot like a Whole Foods only smaller, more intimate and nicer. (Only 4 stars because like WF, it is spendy. Maybe not an every day grocery store for most people.) First off, the store is so visually appealing. Before you walk in the door, they have displays of seasonal fruit and vegetables, and then a lot of flowers! I like that the flowers are placed on multiple levels, in large buckets and arranged by color. Once inside, you'll encounter a rounded counter where they are often giving away wine samples or food to taste. To the right is a fantastic produce section, which in my opinion is better than Whole Foods because it has a lot more options. Again, everything is displayed so nicely, it really makes a difference. Throughout the store you'll find a large cheese section with a cheesemonger, as well as a meat & seafood section with a butcher. They have lots of packaged meats as well, which Metropolitan Market prepares in house, including some meant for one to two people. I think that's hard to find nowadays, it seems everything is packaged for a family of 4. Some of those packaged meats are also unique, such as boneless chicken breast but with the skin still attached. If you're in a hurry, you can grab that ready to roll instead of having to ask the butcher to do it for you. On the far west side of the store, you'll come to my favorite sections: the bakery and prepared foods! (Both of which are far superior to Whole Foods.) Let's start with the prepared foods... They have a salad bar with an amazing amount of choices, as well as your typical hot foods and sandwiches. But what takes it over the top for me are the roasted meats! In particular, their prime roast beef is a thing of beauty. While they can slice off a hunk for you to take home for dinner that night, you can also order up a French dip sandwich on a crusty baguette. They also have a soup bar but be sure to also check out their additional soup bar over near the seafood department, which often features some of the best clam chowder and seafood chowder I've ever had. I love that they have little cups next to each soup tureen for you to sample the soups before purchasing. Classy! On to the bakery... undoubtably the star of the show is the warm chocolate chip cookie display. At any given time there's about 20 of them on a heated platter, so they are always warm and gooey like they just came out of the oven. And these cookies are ginormous! At $2.99 a piece, they are worth every penny. Unfortunately they are also chock-full of walnuts, so if you have a nut allergy or are nut averse like I am, you'll want to skip them. Thankfully, there are plenty of other options. I suggest the Bakewell Tarts, but they also have croissants, huge cakes, and about a thousand other options from local bakeries (Midori Bakery!) and items they make themselves. The Metropolitan Market is just a fun, pleasing place to shop. And a great place to stop for lunch, especially because they have a bunch of tables inside or outside. I believe they also have a kitchen items store on the lower level.
Excellent fish dept.
Beautiful grocery with nice selection of items.
I want to like this place way more than I do. The staff is awesome and I really like their coffee, but that’s about it. It’s very pricey. I’ve been twice to get dinner from the hot deli and twice I’ve been disappointed. I don’t know why but I guess I assumed for the price the food would be high quality, maybe even small batch made. That is not the case. The fried chicken is so dry, the Thai wings are flavorless, the prime rib is tough, the quinoa is bland. The greatest disappointment though was the cake from the deli. I haven’t seen a hummingbird cake West of the Mississippi ever, so I was excited to try it. Well it was just sugary boxed allspice cake, which is NOT hummingbird cake. I’d rather they didn’t sell it all. Anyways I only go for their chocolate chip cookie and coffee. Everything else is such a disappointment.
Lots of local goods, hard-to-find gourmet ingredients, and a wonderful bakery! Great for finding gifts for your favorite foodie!
Great food options available 24/7
People are nice. Food is great! Love the variety
Fresh fruit...but it's all about The Cookie
High-end market with friendly staff and an awesome bakery! I recommend the toffee, the giant cookie (grab a bottle of milk from the grocery store to go with it), and the strawberry croissant. There is a seating area where you can enjoy your spoils
Staff was super friendly and helful
Best high end grocery store in town in terms of quality and customer service
Everyone is always friendly and great selections
Well organized, great food quality and excellent service.
This is a very nice store. Everything looked good.
Great place for groceries. Upscale prices, but upscale quality. Their salad bar, deli, lunch counter, and heat able meal selection is not just easily accessible, but really tasty.
Cheese old. Salumi old. Whiskey pre-opened....sheesh.
This place has a great selection of unusual plants, as well as the more tried and true favorites. The plants look very healthy. Reasonable prices and a nice range of containers. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly too! 5/5 would shop again!
Little on the pricey side, but has a fabulous salad/deli/soup bar. Always lots of variety.
This is my go-to market. Great customer service, friendly staff, good product selection. They do run out of specials, but only for a day. Not closest to the house, but always worth the extra mile.
It has everything! Wonderful staff, amazing products. The wine staff is particularly knowledgeable!
This market is lovely. The produce outside looks fresh. The bakery and meat/seafood butcher have high quality selections and items from local areas. The rest of the store has unique supermarket items for any food you can imagine and caters to vegan/veggie friendly diets. The staff is super friendly and helpful and the wine manager describes wine in excellent fashion.
Bakery is excellent, very fresh and tasty. Deli and cafe is a hit or miss. Most sandwiches and soups are great but other items really depends on the day and the person behind the counter. Other grocery items are much more expensive than QFC or whole foods.
Good selection of wine and beer, as well as better quality produce. Not an inexpensive place, though.
Hot prepped food excellent, bakery fabulous but grocery store had some bare shelves?
Good produce selection. Good food for lunch. I wish they had more hot vegetarian options though. Coffee and espresso drinks are good. Their desserts look beautiful, I gotta try them next time. Their bakery seems to change items seasonally. Workers are always nice there.
Great coffee, really sweet staff. Bomb pastries.
Really great high end food court. You can never go wrong with their linguine alfredo
Quality, Quality, Quality! Great market, amazing customer service, always! I ALWAYS shop there!
Nice place with good produce and good people. Prices are still a bit high, but what isn't up here...
Staff here is always really friendly and willing to help. They do a great job of keeping the aisles clean and organized. I tend to come here to grab a small soup and one of the premade sandwiches. If the line is long in the deli you can usually jump over to the espresso bar or go to the main check out and get out of there much faster.
Nice store, usually have interesting things, but check the freshness of their produce. Generally 20-30% more expensive for general grocery items. Prepared foods very nice. Have found good deals on tahini, vegan protein powder, and other specialty stuff.
Metropolitan is a great high-end grocery. Lovely produce, excellent bakery, lots of specialty ingredients, wonderful cheese and deli, and first class butcher.
The place is clean, very good customer service. Fruits were very fresh and real organic.
Workers are friendly, short lines, easy parking, open 24 hours.
Best cookie ever
Awesome market everything is fresh. Try the cookies at the bakery you won't be disappointed!
A friendly, good atmosphere place to shop with lots of great options in the deli and bakery! A bit overpriced for like-products found in other grocery stores.. but I suppose this goes into the great options they have. Love the cookies!
They have some stinky cheese. Also, would highly recommend the well placed vegetables.
Man, I love this place they've got anything you want or need
They have pretty great food for the most part. Yes, it is expensive, but it's hard not to go here for lunch. Lots of options. Their produce, meat and other groceries are good quality, but yes you will spend more money. I work close by and it's hard to go elsewhere because if you want a good quality sandwich, a pretty extensive salad bar, sushi, soups, etc., it's all here.
Excellent selection but not cheap. Probably the worst piped-in music of any grocery store ever.
Best gourmet grocery store on west coast!
very expensive.....not impressed with dinners at all. prime rib was 6 oz and 3 oz was fat.....vegetables were HARD. WORTH $3,00/ NOT $12,99
Nice but expensive
Quality of food and displays are both outstanding.
Best mix nuts na
It’s on the pricer side but they have special products here that taste amazing and a wide range of brands and foods. The cookie here is amazing super chocolatey and the balance of chewy and soft.
Met Market is a high end grocery store - excellent quality with prices to match. It's unlikely you will find a deal unless it's a super sale item of the week. People come for the reliable food quality, service, hot, cold food bars. They have an eating area and a kitchen goods area downstairs. Go get a "The Cookie" when you desire a treat. It's possibly their most famous item. I also order my Thanksgiving turkey from them. Hey, it's only once a year, right? Might as well as make it count. Plenty of parking in a strip mall like area.
Great selection of freshly made food and poke to go as well as space to eat there. Quality seafood at the counter. Good beer selection.
I love this market. Being a daily shopper I'm there twice a day most days! There deli area is fabulous and the best produce!
Don't go there hungry, you'll buy the store! Amazing, wonderful stuff!
CUSTOMERS BEWARE-got some Rainier cherries and the box was less than half full- the box has a high bottom and there were cherries only on the top. I think the presentation is intentionally misleading because at first glance you get the impression that the box is full. PRETTY DISAPPOINTING. I gave a 2 stars review only because the quality of the food in the supermarket seems good.
Really good food in the bakery but highly over priced. You can get the same food else where cheaper
I always to go the Kirkland Met Market for my shopping. I can grab something for delicious and healthy for lunch from the deli and then grab what I need for dinner for the rest of the week in under 20 minutes. I love to cook and I try things often and I come here because I know that they will always have that hard-to-find ingredient that need!
Fresh produce, gourmet food choices, amazing cookies made fresh daily at their bakery, what's not to love?
Bountiful fresh produce selection, and delicious prepared food.
Metropolitan Market is an upscale market in Kirkland. Lovely bakery, produce displays, flowers. Deli area with prepared foods. Enjoyable to browse and have a coffee in their kitchen store one level down from the main market. Enjoy!
My favorite supermarket in Kirkland. Yes you pay more for everything...but in return you get a more diverse selection of high quality products. The fruits and vegetables are fantastic and the butcher can do nearly any kind of cut with almost any kind of meat. The also have a great selection of local salmon, halibut and crab as well as other fish. My favorite part of the store is the prepared food section. They have soups, sandwiches, and entrees. They also have an impressive salad bar and poke bar and much more. It is a very impressive store.
Check your receipt before leaving the store! My fish was rung up twice yesterday and I was charged for an extra soup. I caught the $20 error by watching the items rung up. This is not an isolated instance -- it happens often at this store. I always verify the price of each item, including the weight per pound of produce. I don't think the mistakes are intentional, but checkers aren't concentrating. I gave the store 4 stars because I like the products and I've trained myself to check the receipt.
Great grocery store, friendly staff, QUALITY produce and fresh food.
Awesome food/salad bar for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Fresh meats and produce are always top notch. But it is a little on the pricey side for being a grocery store
Service and good quality are superior... staff is always friendly and helpful
Always the best experience at the Met!
Great selections, super helpful people.
Visited at the suggestion of a friend as it's advertised as a 24 hour grocery store. Unfortunately, both times I've tried to visit (roughly around 1:00 AM) they've been closed for an "unforeseen staffing incident." I was willing to make the trek out twice but don't think I'll bother again in the near future. Being closed without warning once in a while is fine, obviously, but more than once in such a short time means problems.
Ran in for a quick dinner to go. Got the sushi and some ready to eat berries. It reminded me of a small Whole Foods. It was clean and organized. The food was good. It was expensive.
Its a very good uplift store. the beat part i liked is there are tons of ready to eat options from salads to meals and what not
Metro Market is amazing. Great selection of deli, sushi and other foods. Injoy the ambiance as well.
Beautiful store with very nice people. It's dead at night, but the employees are still nice even then. The cheese and deli and bakery are great. I love the downstairs gift shop with housewares and kitchenware.
Lots of variety and gorgeous foods. Staff are friendly and accommodating too. Little pricey.
Too cluttered, not design very well for shopping. Employees are always stocking items during business hours, the Hot Bar seems to be only Asian or Latino themed dishes (I love Italian food). Overpriced too Not my go-to shopping place.
This place is great. The employees hate dealing with rich people and I don't blame them; everything here is super 'spensive
Terrific bakery and meat counter. Lots of specialty items in the aisles.
I like this store alot. Always clean great selection
Fun market to shop at occasionally. They have a lot of specialty items. Priced high on staples though.
Best Salmon I have ever eaten. Very buttery and went down easily.
Great grocery store with many organic fruits and vegetables. Fantastic bakery, deli, fish, meats, flowers, kitchen shop, wine and liquor. Excellent service.
Not only is Metropolitan Market a great place to shop, but the Kirkland store also gives back to their community. Thank you so much for your in-kind donation to the Interlake High School Theatre program! With gratitude, Interlake Theater Boosters
It is an amazing place. I hung out there with my friends. Umm... You guys, here is one thing you need to get.. FRENCH FRIES and MACARONS!!! Especially the raspberry flavor, it's the best!! French fries are warm and fresh, just the way they should be while the macaron was a perfect texture and the super neat jam inside was splendid!!! I will definitely come back!!!!! The workers are nice. Book store downstairs, they have awesome candles, the grapefruit one with the bumblebee sticker on it is the best smell ever!!! They are a little pricey though. It kinda should be because when you read the description of the place it says " gourmet grocery". I would have at least 10 bucks if I was going there for a meal, maybe even 15 if ya want some delicious sushi.
one of the best supermarkets around! prices are slightly higher than average, but completely worth it. Fantastic deli, salad bar, and soup bar. I come here even when i want just a quick bite, not only to grocery shop. Highly recommend!
Very amazing products!!
GREAT market - everyone is so friendly and helpful, and the store is always spotless. The curry chicken soup is delicious - our favorite. The produce is so fresh as is the wonderful seafood section where Elliott is such a delight when I'm deciding what to have for dinner. And oh, that prime rib sandwich - YUM!! It is simply a wonderful place to shop.
Great selection, wonderful produce, delicious deli
Metropolitan Market has quality goods when you need them. I do prefer to do most of my grocery shopping elsewhere. But, whenever we are cooking dinner for company we come here for what we need.
Very good produce! Interesting types of meat, great yogurts
Hours are no longer accurate, have come to the store several times recently and they have "temporary hours" signs up. I'll no longer be frequenting this location.
I like this market a lot. Clean and well organized. Open 24 hours. Fruit and vegetables here are obviously higher quality. The only thing I have some complain is the price. But you get what you pay.
Always fresh ingredients from the deli and great products overall. The kitchen supply section down stairs is also fun to explore.
Very upscale with many great local offerings. Price is not bad at all for the setting and quality. Awesome deli and foodservice bar. Great service and beautiful people everywhere!
I love this market! I come here for Poke and the cafe/bakery. Try "The Cookie" and you won't be disappointed! Unless you don't like cookies, then you might be.
This place is always great.Enough of cashiers, well-stocked and well arranged shelves, available carts and baskets where you would expect them to be, and typically great prices. Best thing about this store is that they almost got everything.
Pricey but the quality of the products is generally higher than the QFC near my house. There's also a lot of specialty goods here that you can't even find at whole foods. Their deli also has really delicious Bali meatballs and a poke bar that is good enough for a market meal.
Always quality although at a premium price. Not right for your every week grocery shopping but great on occasion.
Great hot food deli and desserts!
Wonderful selection of products. The prices are a bit pricey but the services are incomparable. One of my favorite stores.
Hot bar food was good. Disappointed they didn't have real plates and flatware. Too much waste.
Great variety of fresh foods, more than most other markets.
Great selection especially for gifting of food; candies, pastries and sweets. Hot bar has a selection for vegan and Paleo. Also a self serve pokie section. They offer coffee and coffee drinks as well as a super delicious cookie.
Terrible baklava! So hard I couldn't put a fork thru it. Threw it away! This is my last purchase at met market.
Enjoy these stores, brought my mom who enjoyed all the prepared food options. I had to get the fries in a paper cone, like in the Netherlands and their big cookie.....DELICIOUS! Only issue here....the prices are outrageous.
Right idea on the free range - corn free beef but it's way overpriced; even more than Whole Foods. Prices in general are higher here than PCC, Whole Foods, and New Seasons market. My wine for example was $7 higher at Metropolitan Market than Fred Meyer. Seems like the store caters to the elite. Didn't even have Hemplers or Welshire Farms whole Bacon, only center cut. Some of us Paleo and low carb folk like the fat on the bacon! At least have options. The salmon they were sampling was farm raised. The poke bar sounded good but all of the protein options were seasoned. I prefer to control the flavors and sodium level in my Poke bowl. The paneer makhani from the hot bar was delicious and actually hot. My husband swears by 'The Cookie'. Decent options in Halo Top styles but not a lot of flavors. I was happy to find full fat ice cream most stores only cary the low fat no sugar added...yuk. Talk about taking all the joy out of it. Store was clean and everything looked fresh.
This is a smaller store, but has good selection of selection.
Very good place to shop and staff is very helpfully and friendly.
What Whole Foods used to be.
Great bakery, deli and seafood departments. A little bit pricey.
