| The first of London's three major free daily newspapers (followed after a couple of years by [[London Lite]] and [[thelondonpaper]]), ''Metro'' is a free and reasonably good quality newspaper available from [[Tube]] and [[bus]] stations. It's popular, so does tend to run out quite early, generally by the end of [[rush hour]]. You may well find some copies left in your Tube carriage, though, at least until about lunchtime. |
Metro is a free morning newspaper, available in 16 cities across the UK, and is currently the 4th largest national newspaper in the UK. It is aimed at 18-44 year olds, and provides short articles on current affairs, entertainment, sport, etc. Available for morning rush hour commuters, it can be found at tube and bus stations. |

It occasionally has offers of free coffee/sandwiches/etc from various London sandwich shops; [[Benjy's]] is one that I remember. |
It was launched in March 1999, and is part of Associated Newspapers, which is home to London Lite, a free evening newspaper launched in August 2006. |

It's produced by the same company as the Daily Mail and [[Evening Standard]], so some people complain about it being too right-wing. It also basically rehashes all their stories from the day before and plugs the other two. Although that said the 60 second interview is always worth reading. |

There are editions for other cities, too - Manchester definitely and possibly Edinburgh too. |
