Vivo cerca de los Mettricks en Woolston y he estado en el transcurso de los años para el almuerzo, bebidas. ¡Cada vez que las órdenes están mal! Los cafés helados nunca se hacen de la misma manera dos veces, incluso el café con leche de caramelo no tenía ningún caramelo, huevo y aguacate en las tostadas que le falta el huevo! Los nachos eran realmente horribles solo un plato de lío empapado por nombrar solo algunos! , el chocolate caliente es agradable pero siempre fresco no caliente, y el personal es tan lento y grosero. ¿cuánto tiempo se tarda en hacer un café cuando el lugar está vacío... realmente? ¡Claramente ninguna gestión y contratación desesperada que conduzca a personal de baja calidad, alimentos de baja calidad y precios altos! De todos modos a mi nieta le gusta que la lleve allí como hacen buenos batidos pero ya no comemos allí, solo podemos soportar tanta decepción! Lol El lugar necesita un buen gerente.

Very very disappointed with the service. Paid for cocktails...waited 15 mins for them to be brought to table to be told they didn't even have the ingredients. No real apology...no atmosphere this particular night. Was pretty much empty. Re ordered another cocktail but was cheaper. Never gave a refund of the difference in price. Staff looked pretty sad really. Don't understand what's happening here as used to be great

Atmosphere is nice and comfortable, dogs welcome and good choice on the menu. Food and drinks took a while even though it wasn't super busy and there were 3 people behind the bar (half an hour for two soft drinks , a tea and a latte) and 45 minutes for two toasties and two pancake stacks. Pancakes were missing ice cream when they arrived and chips were cold but otherwise good food. Nice place to eat and will return just wish it was a little quicker!

I came here for brunch, but it was a letdown. We waited 30 minutes just for drinks and over an hour for the food, which wasn’t worth it—my bread was burnt. If you’re short on time or want quality, I’d suggest going elsewhere.

I have been to Southampton metricks for a long time, came to Woolston with already the same expectations and it didn’t came close to what I’m used to see with this company. I completely understand when it’s busy and things take time has I am a waitress myself. After ordering drinks took 35min to arrive and my food (eggs on toast) arrived more then 1h after. The response given to me was never about my food but my friends even tho I had ordered before her, once the waiter came with a plate of food he stopped and walked away saying “one second” and gave it to a different table. Making me getting even more stressed. Food came and it wasn’t nothing special. Well I hope it was only one bad day, just maybe next time communicate better on allowing people to know the estimated time or even be true with why it’s taking longer, cuz if I had an honest answer I wouldn’t be here complaining. My friend wanted to ask for a refund and leave but I thought once food came we would be okay but then it just disappointed us Just make sure if u do come here and ur in a rush to ask about how busy they are and if food will come out on time and preferably in condition

Vengo hoy para darle una segunda oportunidad. La vez anterior mi pedido de comida se olvidó a través de la emisión de boletos, eran solo tres clientes me incluyó, así que el error debe ser detectado directamente, de todos modos, disculparse y obtener reembolso porque se quedó sin tiempo ese día para esperar más tiempo. Sin embargo hoy pedí queso y tocino hachís morenos, como su nombre dijo que debería incluir tocino que no lo he conseguido en absoluto, también la comida era simplemente caliente. No hay excusas para ese menú porque no es grande y mi comida incluía solo tres ingredientes. Solo dejé el lugar decepcionado y un poco enojado. Tal vez debería hablar con el gerente, pero decidí escribir una opinión que espero que tenga impacto para mejorar la calidad del servicio. Solía gustarme este lugar pero no quiero que me traten así, sólo siento que pierdo mi tiempo y dinero. Quizá vengas a tomar café en algún lugar pero no creo que pidas comida allí.

I wasn’t impressed. Expensive coffee which may be roasted in-house but the blend needs less Robusta and more Arabica. Table was sticky. But the place was busy so it must have something. NB I didn’t try the food, just coffee so there may be points to be won.

Went there before going to take that concert last weekend. Did the same thing 5 years ago too. What a disappointing visit this time! I had heard from friends that the food quality had gone downhill so we had already decided we were just going to drink. Asked staff about cocktail offers and was told 2 for £14 all day. Sampled a real ale which was great. The cocktails were also great. Sat down to relax and literally are hands or elbows were sticking to the table! Moved to different table and exactly the same! Moved again and the same! Staff came over to serve a drink and I went to order some cocktails and was told by the same staff member that the offer was over! And also they were closing a hour earlier because of a private function! I would be horrified if I hired that place with the tables being so sticky! Very disappointed !

The food was ok, had about a 20 min wait. Unfortunately the restaurant is cashless which is not signposted anywhere, there should be a sign at the door to note that it is cashless. The servers were not friendly, we were ignored a few times when we needed help with something.

First visit and not impressed. Bordeing on the verge or arrogant attitude (male staff member), very sticky tables, sound system needs updating as too loud and no base so very tinny, prices are slightly over average so not a good all round experience overall.

We usually come here and have a lovely meal. Today the chips were cold and my scrambled egg was. We asked to have it re made and it came out again. Chips were uncooked now hot and also did not have the lovely coating on My scrambled egg was warm but the whole plate was swamped with sauce and I mean the whole plate was slop. I had a refund and decided to have a cake instead as we were hungry we were charged for them and they had no taste and were not nice at all both cakes cost £8 were left on the table. To add when I went to ask about my food the lady making coffee told me to move as she was busy. I had to stand in the queue In front of your new customers to complain where I was trying to be discreet for you. The chef had a long beard uncovered which I don’t think is food and hygiene protocol. Sorry but since Mia left and you opened West Quay and changed your menu this place is doomed we will not be back. REN did try and when he is there all Is good but he’s not today and it’s full of attitude and poor quality food. Sam the assistant manager did try but is too nice and young this place needs an older manager ti take charge. On another note there were 6 dogs here today which is too much barking and growling at each other. Also there are people with no food or drink taking tables of 6 up for hours. I took the food back so could t take photos of that sorry which is a shame.

Very nice breakfast. Coffee is really good. (Flat white with coconut milk and americano). Avocado eggs were perfect. Full English breakfast is a bit too salty. Carrot cake is delicious. Overall atmosphere is cosy, spacious room, pets are welcome here. They also have tables outside. There is only one person serving - takes orders at the bar, serves dishes and pours beverages. I would expect at least two, especially in busy morning hours.

We spent £25 on cake and drinks this morning. The place was dirty at 9.15 am. 2 toilets dirty and skid marks on the toilet. Same in baby changing room. Floor was not swept or mopped from night before. It was black with dirt. We told staff when we left and was told we are getting a new floor. Mmmmm you just need to clean it. Standards of cleanliness is shocking. I find it hard you got a 5 star rating last year. Very disappointed.

Mettricks stands out in Southampton as a charming, independently-owned coffee shop. The staff deserves high praise for their admirable work ethic and speed, contributing to a welcoming and efficient atmosphere. However, despite these positives, I've noticed recurring issues during my multiple brunch visits that need attention. The tables often remain sticky, and the cutlery, particularly teaspoons, are marred by dried coffee stains, diminishing the overall dining experience. On one unfortunate occasion, there is even an oversight with a dog's mess under an outdoor table as I sit here with my hot chocolate and write this. While the staff's efforts are praiseworthy, it appears they are stretched thin during busy hours. This leads to a lapse in maintaining the cleanliness and quality one would expect from a five-star worthy rating. Mettricks has a lot of potential, but addressing these issues could significantly enhance the customer experience, aligning it with the high standards their hardworking team strives to achieve.

Popped in for coffee and a bit to eat while waiting for my car to go through it's MOT. staff where friendly and welcoming when not stood by the kitchen door chatting amongst themselves. The atmosphere was some what ruined by the 'business' man having a phonecall on loudspeaker in the corner. Then that brings me on to the food.... it says along the top of the menu the following - "ALL OF OUR FOOD IS MADE INPROPER KITCHENS BY PASSIONATE CHEFS USING REAL,HIGH QUALITY INGREDIENTS. WE USE LOCAL BUTCHERS, BAKERS & FRESHFOOD SUPPLIERS SO YOU KNOW THAT OUR FOOD DOESN'T JUST TASTE GOOD; IT IS GOOD!" Now from my experience this morning I can on imagine the chef must of run out of passion or was on holiday and someone had been karted in off the street. As the 'local butchers' sausage in my sausage sandwich looked as if the 1st time they where cooked was yesterday. Honestly the casing was as tough as old boots. And the outer layer of sausage meat itself was dry as well. Not to mention the price, the price that made me weep slightly as I ordered it. (This was before knowing it was going to contain yesterday's sausages) £8 for a sausage sandwich! Even if this was cooked perfectly 8 quid is a bit steep. But what I got was a car crash of sausages on some average bread. Only made edible by the HP sauce I added. It doesn't matter how high-quality the ingredients are if it's over cooked it will taste rubbish. I suggest they find some passion for the chef that was on this morning that or find a new one. As no real chef would of have been proud to send out what I received today. I won't be eating here again, also the coffee isn't all that either.

Came in for lunch today to find that the menu is now half the size and of the small selection of items left not all were available. Not a massive deal but annoying as we had already decided what we wanted before coming. The big issue though was the price, £38 for what you see in the picture + a hot chocolate that was forgotten about. £8.50 for cheesy chips and bacon and the size of it was the same as my chips.... that are still £4.50. Just feel like the portion size has reduced and the price has gone up. Still nice tasting though I can't fault them there. But... The food came out warm at best with my steak being stone cold 🥶. Plus the two glasses my wife picked to share a drink with me both were dirty with one containing part of a blue cleaning cloth. UPDATED due to chat with new management. He over herd my wife asking for a clean glass at the bar due to the others being dirty and came to speak with us in person. The first thing he did was refunded the entire meal + drinks and apologised for the exspirnce we had. This was definitely a shock as we had not requested this. He then explained why the menu had been reduced and listend to our feedback regarding the portion sizes and how they had changed from the previous year. We explained that in the past we would have never begrudge paying the slightly higher prices for items on the menu due to the portions size and food quality being so good. The reduction in portion size was definitely unexpected hence our upset. So my orginal review of 2 stars is now 4 stars and I will be returning in a couple of month to see if this exspirnce was a one off and the improvements the manger said would take place have.

What I love about mettricks is it’s suitable for any occasion, family meal out, business meeting, independent work space, Friday night drinks with the girls or a lil self date! The food has never been a disappointment with a variety of sweet and savoury options as well as pastries and cakes if you fancy a light bite.

Absolute shocking service, went in there today for breakfast slash lunch, the premises was at approx 30% capacity so not too busy, was told 45 minute wait for food, ok I’m prepared to wait that long, after 25 minutes we still hadn’t got our drinks, I questioned the waitress who said sorry it’s a five minute wait for drinks, erm am I missing something here?? Food finally arrived after just over an hour wait, although plentiful everything but the beans (obviously microwaved) on my big breakfast was cold!! How after an hour to prepare it. Very dissspointed £40 down the drain, needless to say I will not be coming back and will advise others not to bother. Unfortunately the place seems entirely staffed by young people and there appears to be no leadership or management skills.

We used to come here and loved it here.but last night I ordered pizza which i knew its not big from previous experience but what we got was smaller than small. It was a palm size pizza which wasn’t worth £11. I wouldn’t pay even £5. Plus it was undercooked. After asking where is the rest of the pizza we got chips to share for free which was great, but also felt like Acknowledgment of something’s not quite right. I am giving 1stars and hoping that the management or owners will do something to change the place back to what is used to be like. Not just the food. The toilets at 10am not looking like been cleaned for days and 8pm you don’t even want to know. Hope someone there is listening

I like Mettricks as a brand, and really hope for all the success possible, but this location always just feels empty and lacking in real ambience. The food and drink is good, but that's sadly not everything when you're socialising. Also, the drinks menus were literally replaced middle of an evening with new ones that were more expensive. Quite why the staff couldn't do this for the next day, instead of rolling it out in the middle of service, I'm not sure. Portswood and City Centre are both much more pleasant in terms of having a nice buzz to them.

Visited with a friend, and we had a coffee outside, overlooking the water, which was lovely. It always takes a while for anything to get to the table, so it's not the place for you if you're in a hurry. I had a latte, and they seem to come in a glass cup with no handle. So you either can't hold if it's hot or it's lukewarm. Usually, the latter. I have returned in the past, but always forget to ask for a normal cup. I enjoy going to Mettricks, but it has its drawbacks.

The fried egg looked liked it had been run over, flat and over cooked. When I took it back to the bar area to show the girl behind the counter she wasn't at all bothered. Our bill for 2 came to £35, we will not be returning.

Not been for a couple of years due to poor service. Glad to see this has improved a little, although still seems very slow compared to similar establishments.

Food was amazing! I had the fried chicken breakfast wrap, really different and delicious! The service is a bit odd though, counter service which means ordering and paying whenever you do, we sat around for a good hour after finishing with no plates cleared as to be honest could have had another drink each but with a dog and baby it was a bit awkward to go to the counter to order.

Some of the best coffee in Southampton. My £12.5 avo on toast (with bacon) was extremely stingy portions. Wouldn't order again.

Good food. Never been as cold in a pub. Turn your heating up or get it sorted

Great experience here. Especially the Santa hunt in November 24.
