Muse & Co

Muse & Co is an artist lounge and tea house in downtown Fayetteville, known for boba milk teas and fruit teas served alongside guided painting sessions. Drinks range from Red Bean Sesame, a creamy adzuki and black sesame boba, to Matcha Wonderland, a layered drink with honey-frothed matcha on top. The tea list also includes oolongs, green teas and caffeine-free floral options. Founded by artist Pinghui Ren, the lounge runs sketch club sessions, origami classes and a small gallery of work by local artists.

Paint & Boba packages include a drink, art supplies and a painting space, and Sit and Paint sessions give you room and materials on your own. Metal cuff workshops take drop-ins during open hours, while painting sessions and classes can be booked through the website. Mondays are reserved for private events such as birthdays and team-building, for groups of up to 34 with a drinks package available. There is street parking, step-free access and free WiFi, and the lounge is open Tuesday through Sunday.
