Green Muse Cafe

Green muse boooo's. Okay so me and my roommate go here a good bit, and I took my best friend there to study too. So obviously at one point in time we were all big fans, however, not so much anymore. right like everyone says great atmosphere, except this one guy who works at night ( black hair, tattoos and a shitty attitude ). We've seen two times where he has approached ppl and instead of asking them kindly and explaining the situation; he just says if your gonna be here you need to buy something. We'll he gave it bout 5mins then comes back and goes hey that means now... if your not going to buy something then leave. The kid says ya okay im not bothering anybody i havent been here long- the employee cuts him off and is like look it really pisses me off to have to been saying this

Then ends his blow up with quote " if your not going to buy something then get the f*@# out of here"

The place could be great but the customer service reflects its zombie atmosphere, i.e. dead.

The place just lacks coffee shop charm.

Make it a day trip and its chill, youll prolly get a smile from the curly haired kid working. But until they roadkill this employee I wouldnt recommend it.…

Best coffee shop ever. This place is great. I love the atmosphere, it's quiet, but people still talk, the servers are friendly, and the Italian sodas are good. The only drawback is that parking can be a hassle sometimes. That however, is a small price to pay.

Throw your Starbucks in the trash and go to the Green Muse. You won't regret it.…

Could be great. The Green Muse kills me. It should be so awesome. Such a great space. Especially the outside, with the movie screen etc.. Great location. So, it all seems to fall apart right when you pull into the parking lot. First off, no parking... ever... idiot business next to it always tows everyone. You'd think they could simply work out an financial agreement? a percentage of profits for shared parking? something.

Then you get inside... and instead of a lively neighborhood coffee shop, with good music and conversation, you're greeted with dead silence... and awkward stares from the 12 or so people on HP laptops that you just disturbed. I guess they were hard at work... studying... far from UT... trying to figure out how to get on the wireless network?

Then you walk up to the bar to order a coffee. Totally understaffed. Never more than one employee. So it takes about 15 minutes to get espresso drinks for 3 people. And the coffee is unfortunately about as uninspired as the clientele in the front room.

Then you walk outside (cause you can't tolerate the stuffy, quiet, pretentious atmosphere inside) only to discover that there are about 12 seats in a space that could hold 30. Why are there so few seats?

This place has such great potential to be a really unique, wonderful coffee shop. They need to flush out the zombies with some music inside, Maybe try something with an Absinthe angle? BYOB Absinthe? Provide the accessories. Address the parking situation, and redesign the seating in the outside area.…

There is tragedy, but from the tower?. I love this place. OHH...I am a towing professional. This place is quiet, relaxing and a great cup a jo! I am not sure how long you have been in town, or any major city, but towing is, and always will be, an issue that is a fact of life. Read the signs! It really is that easy! Property owners and tenant have the right to disallow anyone they choose on thier property. If they are having towing conducted on that property, then I am certain they had a reason to even go this far as a solution. And come off of this "I parked facing away from the business" stuff. You know where you parked and knew you were wrong for doing it. Yea, it may have been after you came back and actually read the sign, but you knew. And you know that you thre in this little bit of "the property is getting kickback" stuff of of the top of your head. They are not being paid kickbacks, not getting a portion of the tow bill, or anything like it. I bet they do not even know you were towed, which means the towing company is doing thier job right and keeping unwanted vehicles of of thier property. If it was your business, you may have done the same thing. You cannot sit here and give that answer without being in thier shoes.

But the Green Muse is a great place to socialize quietly and even to just be secluded to work on your oqwn thing in peace. I love it!…
