Description

The reviews for Muse showcase a varied experience, with many praising the efficient and friendly service they received. The breakfast options were highlighted as extensive and delicious, with the Srirachi Eggs Benedict being a popular choice. However, some customers complained about long wait times, dry and bland food, and extra charges for soy milk. Despite these issues, the overall consensus is that Muse offers a unique atmosphere with a cafe and bookstore combination, making it a popular spot for brunch or a quick coffee. Patrons also appreciated the availability of a variety of dishes and the accommodating service provided. Overall, while some aspects may require improvement, Muse remains a charming and inviting venue worth revisiting.

Muse is great. Friendly and attentive staff, decent menu options and they allow you to build your own breakfast. I had quinoa toast with avo, sautéed mushrooms, oven baked tomatoes and a fresh OJ. Yum! If I ever find myself in Canberra again, I'll definitely go to Muse again.

Very cool vibe, and I always end walking away with a new book to add to the collection! Great for weekend brunch or a wine (whiney?) night with the girls.

Amazingly lovely cafe. I love the location,ambience,the food,the idea of book,the sitting...we sat by the window.it was so nice to glance at the view outside. Unfortunately, it was cloudy today. It must be better on sunny day. I ordered healthy breakfast which is vegetarian. I will back to try more.

Popped into Muse while attending a conference at the East Hotel. The variety of books available in the bookshop was outstanding, some great reads. I'd recommend Muse to anybody whether looking for a gift or looking to expand their world view. Certainly worth paying a visit.

This was by far the best meal I have ever eaten in my life! Sour dough Miso steak Banana pecan Heaven on a stick! I will never be able to eat out anywhere else again as I will always compare it to this wonderous meal.
