Very cozy little coffee shop with an extraordinary amount of thoughtfully designed statues. I was drawn in by the deep meanings some of these had. I have pictured my favorite.
Family friendly, we brought in our 1 year old an felt like part of the family

This is Lovelands little gem. Great coffee (and I am a coffee snob), food is delightful and all homemade. The atmosphere is cozy and warm in the winter, cool and shady on a hot summer day. The great service is a rarity to find these days.

Stopped in quickly on our cross country travel. Got a mocha and an Americano. Both were delicious but the pecan roll is what really steals the show ๐๐๐ค

A very nice little coffee shop. The atmosphere of the place is extraordinary, and the coffee is great too. However, the cinnamon roll I ordered was a bit stale. Still a great experience overall.

Awesome atmosphere and great coffee. We are "tourists" but when we're back in town we'll be back.

Adorable, small, quiet coffee shop.
Had great iced coffee and a sandwich at the coffee bar will definitely be back !

Owned by artists (bronzes), the Muse not only has great coffee & pastries (incl gluten free goodies), it's also visually stunning. Outside seating is available. Family friendly.

Five Stars says it all !!!! This masterpiece of art is much more than a coffee shop. Outstanding coffee and tea drinks along with mouth watering pastries, fresh gourmet sandwiches and two delicious soups are served in one of the most creative atmospheres we have ever experienced. What a beautiful and talented family has put this all together !!!!

I used to come here a few years back when I lived in Loveland. It was usually wonderful and fantastic. I was very excited to share this extremely special place with my dad since we were in town for the Sculpture festival. George's booth manager even reminded us and suggested we go after the show (this was a Saturday).
I double checked the hours of the shop on google and my maps. Both said the shop closed at 3. We got there (parking is tricky but I don't mind because I think it makes it a great "find") and walked into the coffee shop at 2:15...
There was no one around. We walked up to the register. The workers were off to the side in their prep area. I said hello. There was no answer. My dad and I looked at the menu and continued to talk, our voices getting louder to try to alert the three workers to our presence. A younger girl poked her head out and looked at us and then disappeared again.
She came out a couple minutes later (time is now 2:20, which, I recognize is a relatively short amount of time that I wouldn't have minded if our presence had been acknowledged at the very least). She asked us what we wanted (No greetings or niceties). I asked for one of the food items on their menu. She informed me that their grill was already shut down for the day. I asked if they had changed their hours or if the site was incorrect (an apology from me was in order if they closed at 2:30 instead of 3 as I thought). She informed me they do close at 3 but that they shut off the grill at 2:30. I asked if that was advertised anywhere while refraining from pointing out that it was still ten 'til 2:30. She admitted that she didn't know if it was posted anywhere.
My dad ordered an ice tea and waited. Another couple came in and also started looking at the food menu. My dad got his drink and we proceeded to the milk and sugar table. At that point, a woman came out and informed the couple that if they wanted food, she could turn the grill back on. The couple told her we had been there first and had tried to order food. She then asked us what exactly we had wanted to order. I told her it was just one of the sandwiches on the menu. She did offer to turn the grill back on for us but by this point it was 2:30 and we needed to get on the road and headed back out home. She apologized and explained they were shutting down early for a later event.
Honestly, I understand the grill being shut off. I understand them shutting down early for an event. What I am most upset about (and what embarrassed me in front my father) was the fact that we were completely ignored. I'm not high and mighty. I don't need a ton when I walk in. It would have cost them nothing to shoot us a smile and say, "We'll be with you in a minute."
