Metro Caffe | Our Story
A Lower Haight institution since 1989
Metro Caffe has been feeding the neighborhood from the same address for over 30 years — same formula, same commitment to doing it right.
The formula
High-quality ingredients and great customer service — that's been the whole plan since day one. We figured out what we're good at and never drifted from it.

More than cheesesteaks
The cheesesteak is what people come for, but the menu runs deep — burgers, dogs, fish, appetizers, fries, and vegetarian options too.
Details matter
Bread comes in fresh every day, and every cheesesteak gets premium steak — no shortcuts, no exceptions. You can taste the difference, and that's the point.
Metro Caffe Cheesesteaks & Burgers
Whether it’s the bread we get delivered daily or the premium steak we use in our Cheesesteaks, we go the extra mile in order to make Metro Caffe one of the best quick-service restaurants around!
We’ve been in the Cheesesteak business for over 30 years and we attribute that fact to one thing; simplicity. We stick to high-quality ingredients and great customer service. Yes, you matter! We know what we’re good at, and it’s been the formula since 1989 at Metro Caffe.
We’re excited to serve San Francisco and we will always keep our promise to provide our community with the highest standard of food and service that WE STAND BY!
