I had to get something to eat while at the Met because I hadn’t had a lot to eat this day and for someone with dietary restrictions, I didn’t feel they had the best selection. Some of their foods looked very yummy, but as someone who cannot have dairy, I felt a little disappointed by the options. For people who have dairy or gluten restrictions or are vegan, I suggest having a big meal before going on. For vegetarian or don’t have any restrictions, it should be totally fine!

3.5 / 5.0 - The Petrie Court Cafe is a cafeteria inside the Met, with high ceilings and a view of the Obelisk.
Menu options for lunch were limited to a couple of overpriced sandwiches or salads.
