The products and categories are restricted to registered users only. If I go to a category the meta description is always the one I have set up in the main Joomla 3 config. Once logged in of course then anything I configured in a Hikashop category is shown. I also tried to set this in the menu meta descriptions but get the same result. Is there a way to show the category meta description without being logged in?

The metadata should logically be displayed, but if it's not I think that it's more a Joomla problem than a HikaShop one.

I will search Joomla forums and perhaps raise a question there.
