The Petrie Court Café is a pleasant café located within the Metropolitan Museum of Art, offering stunning views of Central Park. The café serves good coffee and provides excellent customer service. The pastries, particularly the berry scone, are a highlight, making it a great spot for those seeking a fancy treat. Live music performances add to the memorable experience.
The café is also kid-friendly, with ample parking and wheelchair accessibility available. However, recent reviews suggest that the menu options for lunch are limited and overpriced, with some customers describing the food as similar to what one might find at an airport kiosk. The service has also been criticized, with customers having to serve themselves coffee and still being expected to tip.
Despite these drawbacks, the Petrie Court Café remains a popular spot for visitors to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, offering a place to recharge and recover during their museum visit. Customers recommend ordering the onion soup and pairing it with a beer, or opting for bagels and soda if visiting with children.
