Metropolitan Market Queen Anne (Uptown) is a high-end grocery store offering a wide selection of quality products, similar to a smaller Whole Foods with better choices in many categories. Visitors are drawn by fresh food options, especially the fresh chocolate chip cookies, and enjoy the variety of groceries, including a notable deli and salad bar.

The deli offers high-quality food, but prices are on the higher side. Service experiences vary; some staff are friendly and helpful, while others are less attentive, especially at the checkout.
