My favorite place for breakfast and coffee in Fort Collins. When we visit Fort Collins, we usually stay at the Armstrong Hotel, which is attached to Mugs. Love waking up and getting a breakfast sandwich and coffee from Mugs. (They have quite the menu to choose from). Everything we have ordered there is super good and fresh and tasty! And their coffee is top notch. The people that work there and the customers are so friendly. I love the atmosphere. You can chat with friends or work on your computer. Also a good place at night too. We met some friends there on CSU parents weekend to catch up-we hadn't seen each other in about 20 years and it was a great place to meet and was still open late at night. I love the art (and the art is for sale!) that they also have displayed at Mugs too. Just love the food, coffee, people and the ambience.

I work right across the street so my coworkers and I are always in here getting large orders of different drinks and food practically everyday to get us through our shifts. The people that work here are so wonderful; very friendly and always remember us, even by name. I always feel bad coming in with an order of anywhere from 2-5 different lattes/chais/smoothies and a sandwich or a bagel but no matter how busy it is, they always assure me that it's not a hassle and always make me feel welcome. When it gets busy there usually is a good wait for drinks and food so come with enough time if you have to be somewhere! Everyone at my work is obsessed with the Nuckin' Futz latte, I personally like the Big White Whale or the Moca Mocha. Everything is delicious, plenty of seating, free WiFi, board games, friendly service. I love this Mugs!
(5)Stan T.
Love this place. White Whale is irresistible. I'll drive out of my way to get there.

After reading the fantastic reviews, I wanted to give Mugs a try. However, I was sorely dissapointed. If you are looking for a quiet area to relax, this cafe is not for you. They play loud 80's-esque rock music, in the middle of the day, when there are clearly several individuals trying to study. Also, the individual who served me my Darjeeling iced tea was rather rude when I asked if I could add fruit to my drink. I would not come back here again.
(3)Michelle S.
Wonderful baristas, fantastic baked goods (including $1 brownies that are fudgy and to DIE for!), and skillfully-made coffee. Plus they are local and organic, and are a great place to study. They also have AC in the summer which is a godsend.
(5)Leah B.
My husband and I were staying at The Armstrong Hotel and decided to give this place a try. Nice coffee shop! Lots of seating and good food/drink selection. I ordered a Black Ice Tea and purchased some cookies and brownies. Pastries were delicious! Would definitely come to this place again!
(5)Nancy F.
Ordered a quiche...it was still frozen in the middle after they microwaved it. Ick. And, it was supposed to be vegetarian when it clearly wasn't. My vegetarian daughter took a bite and there was a huge piece of bacon in it. And, the service sucks!
(1)Brenda L.
I came here and tried a seasonal apple mate tea drink that tasted like Thanksgiving or Xmas. I thought that was ironic because I came in March and the drink most definitely tasted like a past season. Their menu awesomely offers a wide assortment of tea and coffee mixes. They definitely have some unique drinks. My friend got a matcha green tea which I was really disappointed in. It tasted really artificial and had a really artificial color to it. It was like no other matcha I have had before. I wonder if it was supposed to taste that way? Yelp told me about a check in deal there but the worker there had never heard of it and was confused about it. They honored it anyway which I thought was cool. This place is decent to study at but the atmosphere could be a little bit cozier.
(3)Jen E.
Mugs is a great little coffee shop right in the heart of CSU. They also offer a variety of goodies for breakfast and lunch. You can choose from coffee or smoothies to yummy baked goods. I just had a coffee and my daughter had the Mango Tango smoothie. Very tasty! I am most certain that she will be visiting Mugs quite often when she is at college next year. Great local coffee shop that takes pride in their community feel. We loved it!
(4)Corinna P.
Atmosphere: the design of the place has a relaxed, college feel to it. The music is fairly loud and there are plenty of people chatting there, so unless you can focus with lots of people around you and a lot of noise, it may not be the best study area. Food/drinks: their food is good, however it is a little more expensive than you would think. They offer gluten free options, have breakfast and lunch items, as well as smoothies and teas. As for their coffee, unless you get it right away, it typically sits in their containers for a while, and starts to get an old/acidic taste to it. You're better off getting a drink with espresso in it for a fresher taste. Not bad, but also not great. Great location that's for sure.
(3)Shealin E.
First breakfast in Fort Collins and it was delish and fast. Large menu for food options of breakfast, lunch, or evening fare and droolworthy desserts. Many options for coffee/espresso concoctions including sugar free flavors and dairy alternatives as well! Nice out door seating area, workstation area, and WiFi. Parking out front, retail shopping nearby and friendly staff. Hard to come by. Check it out.
(5)Ben S.
This is probably my 3rd favorite coffee shop in FoCo, which is not a slight on Mugs, it's just a testament to how many AWESOME coffee shops there are in FoCo! This locally owned and run coffee shop is on the edge of old town (though there is also a location right next to campus, but I prefer the Old Town location). They have remodeled numerous times in the years that I have been coming here, and it is slowly getting better and better! There are comfy chairs, to normal tables, all depending on why your there, for social or business purposes! The WiFi runs great, which is always a plus! They have just updated their menu and unfortunately I have not been in here to try their new stuff but if it is anything like their old stuff I am sure it is great! Their drinks and coffee are great as well! If it's hot outside, or if you just like cold/sweet drinks, I suggest you try the Orange Dream Cycle which is like a flavor explosion in your mouth (I have a much more descriptive term but it may not be appropriate for yelp...LOL). Probably one of the best things about Mugs is how community oriented they are! They often allow local organizations to use space for meetings and events for free! I have been a part of numerous workshops, activist meetings, salon talks, movie previews, etc. at Mugs! All in all if you are in old town and need some coffee, check out Mugs, it is great!!!
(4)Alexis P.
Awesome place. Good workers, great chai, coffee and their jasmine tea is one of the best, so are the brownies and plus they're cheap.
(5)Dawn E.
Always super atmosphere and great staff! Coffee, bagels, yogurt parfait...yumm-o!! Comfortable, clean, tasty and inexpensive. What more could you want?
(5)Karen P.
So glad we found this place! We were staying in Fort Collins for 2 days and ended up here both mornings. We tried a few of the specialty coffees and a smoothie - all yummy! Inviting atmoshphere and friendly employees.
(5)Julie P.
I love the coffee here, they also have other good drinks and some good food as well. The atmosphere is pretty cool and the service has always been friendly.
(5)Eric B.
This great coffee shop has a great local vibe. Great menu that anyone with any preference can find something to enjoy. The staff is very friendly and drinks get to you fast! The coffee is very high quality as well!
(5)Julie G.
Very cool and relaxed place. The gentleman who took my order was very sweet and engaging; welcomed me to the area as I had never been before. I had one of their specialty lattes; the cinnamon roll latte- iced. It was perfection. It was sweet enough that the cinnamon flavor came through, but not so sweet that it tasted like a milkshake. It was what flavored coffee should taste like. The ambiance is friendly and cozy.
(5)Stephen T.
Great little coffee shop. I also had the soup and a grilled cheese, mmmm. Nice friendly staff and a relaxed setting to do some work between meetings.
(4)Mila G.
Everyone comes here to hang out, and there's a reason for it. The atmosphere is great, and they serve good coffee. If you're lucky enough to find a table, grab it, it won't be there for long. These days we go when we're in town as a break from shopping, and its a nice corner spot where you can people-watch while you hang out.
(4)Christine B.
I am a breakfast burrito snob. Normally, I power through less than stellar brekky burr'os because I love my tortilla wrapped breakfast. I hand it to the Mugs folks, those foil wrapped, ready-to-grab veg burritos ($5.50) are tasty, filling and fresh. When they offer the side of salsa, just say no...it adds nothing but a bit of a mess to the whole brekky experience. I'm also a huge fan of the vegged out sandwich on a bagel ($5.50). Friendly service and good food options. Hate that coffee is served in paper cups, but I'm that girl who drinks my coffee out of a real coffee mug, in my car, so can't fault them on that front.
(4)Jana H.
What a wonderful little coffee house! Stopped in for a quick breakfast, & I was pleasantly surprised at the bagel selection. I opted for a jalapeno bagel with a side of garlic herb cream cheese, & it was delightful. The cream cheese had a mix of fresh herbs and garlic. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place!
(4)Jennifer R.
Mugs is very inconsistent with their food and service it's starting to make me angry. Once in a while my breakfast burritos are perfect, other days the center is ice cold. Today I craved the delicious BLT with tons of bacon and zesty mayo I had there last week, today I got a tiny amount of bacon on barely toasted bread. Also some employees say you get chips with your $7.75 sandwich, others say no.
(1)Danielle S.
This place would be great if they hired all new staff. Rudest staff I've ever encountered. No customer service skills at all. And maybe a more appropriate dress code for the ladies should be inforced.
(2)Michael D.
This is the only place I'm willing to go for coffee when I'm working in the area or doing a coffee run.
(5)Brian S.
Great coffee and top notch breakfast burritos. Staff is also very friendly.
(5)Joe M.
coooooool joint. bfast burritos could grow a bit but they are delish :)
(4)Lisa B.
Wonderful location with great outdoor seating! Relaxed space inside too. Nice staff, lots on the menu and priced well. Great spot for coffee and grub!
(5)Andrew B.
Second time here. WiFi available. Comfy seating. And much I like Alley Cat, it's much easier to find a seat here. The folks behind the counter are cool and a brownie with hot chocolate is a nice combo.
(4)Holly P.
As someone who's worked in customer service most of my life, I have NEVER had a good service experience here. EVER.
(1)Heather T.
Mugs is a quirky local coffee shop! Today it was just a quick stop in for some forbidden fruit iced tea. The tea was lightly "sweet" from the fruit flavors and totally refreshing on a warm spring day.
(5)Jack E.
I likie. While I was at first about to rate this an "eye roll," as the college-aged barista gave me a bit of a hipster stare when I asked about the drip and said I couldn't decide between that and an Americano, when I asked him for a recommendation on the drips, he described a couple with me and I settled on the "Dark Canyon" letting him know I enjoy Sumatras. He was all smiles as soon as he saw I had some coffee knowledge. Guy probably doesn't realize I have a friend who's a premier roaster in Summit County, and have been a coffee shopper for years. Yes, I know a little about coffee. But anyway, I like the space here, it's friendly enough an atmosphere, and it's chill. Decent music even though I prefer my ear buds, but I think after trying a lot of the selections in this town, Mugs on College will be my main go-to for a coffee shop experience.
(4)Brian H.
Okay there are two local coffee shops I really care for in Fort Collins, this is my #1. Mugs has a lot of character, great coffee, and good breakfast food. This place blows the pants off Starbucks on coffee, but the breakfast food items are also surprisingly good. Mugs is great... Don't keep walking or driving, come in for a cup of Joe.
(5)Kolleen M.
Great little coffee shop! Fabulous coffee, great atmosphere and delicious breakfast sandwiches.
(5)Ashley H.
I was kinda excited to eat here. It was cute and on a hot day the shaded outside seating seemed like a wonderful idea. We went in and found it a bit tough to track down a menu. I asked the staff what was good and I got a 'meh most of it.' The guy that was gong to ring me up was friendly but he was not joke pushed out of the way by the rudest person in the area. 'What do you want...' Isn't a very good way to greet someone. That's great you got that hipster 'I don;t really need this job I'm just here and looking cool' thing isn't something I look for in a place to eat. I went and sat outside but it took a long time for my sandwich to get made. All be it, it was OK it was $10 for it and some water. Just OK. Not great. Which kinda summed up the place. I was disappointed to say the least. I think if the staff came with a better attitude this place would be a bit better.
(2)Laura C.
While visiting from the Springs, we stopped in for a latte on 5/25/14, and it was the best ever! So sad that we don't have Mugs in the Springs! Foco rocks
(5)James R.
I love their breakfast burritos, their drinks are awesome, and they are often pleasant enough to keep me coming back. Location in old town is awesome, and if it's not too busy, you're usually able to find somewhere to do some work or reading. Their outdoor seating is great, too, considering their location. Still, as I drink my delicious drink, their music is piercing, and I therefore have to blast my own music in my headphones to combat this. This problem plagues this place and so many other local cafes (eg Dazbog) that would otherwise be awesome alternatives to my workplace. I very much understand staff keeping the music up to get them through the day, but on the other side of the counter it's disturbing and makes me want to drink up and be on my way. The 3/5 also is also to account for several occasions (a good portion of my visits) with staff who seemed bummed about being there, or my being there... Either way, wasn't the nicest interchange.
(3)Tim H.
Love this place! The vibe a local coffee shop should have. Fun staff, great food and a fun layout.
(5)Gabriela H.
"Cool spot, nice people, and great vegan options. Good coffee and killer quinoa and fruit for breakfast. Wish they also had nuts and hemp powder to add to the quinoa for extra protein."
(4)Lauren C.
Great environment for studying, especially the downstairs area. They even have office chairs with huge tables. Additionally, I'd come here to chillax and read a book. My latte was perfect- loved the leaf art on it as well. My friend's honey vanilla chai latte was a little funky... Great staff, friendly local place.
(4)Matt F.
Great coffee, as always! I had forgotten how much I liked Mugs; the barista actually took the time to strike up a real conversation as he was making my drink.
(5)Stephanie K.
This place will never fail me! If I am within the vicinity of Fort Collins I must stop by this place! Dee-lux bagel with egg and bacon! Heaven on a bagel. I may feel a little bit fat for devouring the whole bagel in five minutes, but I'll just look down at the foil wrapper, head back the next day and let the cycle repeat itself. That good! Plus they support local art and I randomly saw my friend who now lives in SF on the wall!
(5)Andy M.
Mugs is a cute little Coffee House located on the main drag in Fort Collins. The coffee is great, and the make a kick ass Breakfast Burrito. Mugs offers free Wi-Fi and they have a comfortable little outside seating area in front of the shop. It's the perfect place to enjoy a cup of Java and watch the world go by. Mugs is a bit on the pricey side, but I believe that you get what you pay for in this case. The great coffee and comfortable setting is worth a few extra bucks. I would be happy to stop in here anytime that I'm in Ft. Collins.
(4)Kim B.
I called to get some info on coffee and the person that answered the phone was very helpful and pleasant. When I went in to buy the coffee, the man at the counter was very nice and friendly. I like this place, friendly people, and good coffee.
(5)Monty K.
BEST coffee and wraps in Fort Collins! The authenticity is palpable and the location is superb.
(5)Kolohe R.
GF bagel with locks &cream cheese the best!
(5)L B.
When I first moved to Fort Collins, I loved Mugs. I think however, that I was mesmerized by the earth-friendly signage, plethora of goodies and fun atmosphere. After visiting Mugs (both locations) many times I've finally come to the conclusion that they kinda suck. First, the coffee: It really is mediocre at best. Whenever I get the drip coffee it always smells and tastes slightly stale -- as if its been sitting in that carafe forever. Even my espresso drinks have been letdowns. The food: Also mediocre. They never properly toast their bagels. I've had a taste of others' baked goods that have seemed old and stale or just boring. They almost never give me a plate or silverware when I ask for my food 'for here'. In addition, they seem incapable of making a good lox sandwich. The open face sandwich has only been served to me open faced ONCE. At that, the lox tasted slightly old and they were out of one of the ingredients for the sandwich. (not the first time they've been out of something I've wanted) As far as the 'focaccia sandwich' goes: lame. It's like a giant piece of dry bread. The atmosphere: They play their music way too loud. It's terrible to study and it's terrible to have a conversation if you like talking to your friends. And if you ask them to turn it down? Most likely they'll say 'sure' and not actually do anything. The employees: Are only genuinely friendly to people they are actually friends with. I will not be spending my money here again!
(2)Aaron J.
Very nice, eclectic coffee shop. They have excellent smoothies and the bagels are out of this world. Can't speak for the coffee without having had any, but my friend had the hummus and it was delicious! We sat outside and they patio is big and relaxing, which makes for a great location for people watching. They also have free wi-fi.
(4)Lauran H.
We were in Ft Collins visiting our daughter and went to mugs twice for breakfast. The coffee is good and the service excellent. Had the Fort Lox. Sandwich and the sprout sandwich. Both were open face and a bit hard to manage. Mine had way too muchcream cheese. But I do like the ethic of this place and have no trouble recommending it as a great coffee spot in this town. Has nice outdoor seating also.
(4)Justin L.
Extremely friendly service by the girl with dreadlocks. Excellent smoothies. OK espresso. Nice amateur art on the walls. The inside had a bit too much of a school cafeteria vibe for me. Overall, though, a very enjoyable early morning stop and decent value coffee.
(4)Alden C.
I have gone here enough now that I had to buy one of Mug's t-shirts. I bought the one that said 'Friends don't let friends drink Starbucks' (or is it Corporate Coffee?) with a image of Lady Godiva looking dead and gagging. I had to look on two different occasions for this shirt because it is apparently quite popular! It is safe to say that I love this place! Yep! Yep!
(5)Rick K.
It's not Bean Cycle (my favorite), but it's an okay place; decent coffee, friendly staff, and great outdoor seating and people-watching under the trees. As for inside, it seems too dark and chaotic, except for the nice window seats. I can't comment on the food because I don't think I've had more than a pastry and coffee the half-dozen or so times I've been here.
(3)Rachel E.
I'd become a CSU student again just to relive my study time and Saturday mornings spent at Mugs. The coffee rocks.. the food rocks.. the location rocks.. it's local and the owners are nice guys, too! Just a few reasons to love Mugs a latte...:)
(5)Kristin M.
I am an addict. That's the first step, right? Admitting you have a problem? Although, I don't see my addiction to coffee as a problem. Maybe my kidneys disagree. At any rate, I drink a lot of coffee. Being a mom and a writer, I think it's just part of the job description. Living in the enabling city of Fort Collins, with all of the different coffee houses, only adds fuel to the fire. Mugs Coffee Lounge is one of my favorite places to get my caffeine fix. My breakfast experience at Mugs, as always, was exactly what it should have been - perfect. Breakfast items, smoothies, freshies, lunch and snacks, it's enough to make anyone jones for another bite. With coffee houses this good in Fort Collins, it's possible I might need an intervention.
(5)Angela L.
I wish there were a "6-star" rating option just for MUGS Coffee Lounge in Ft Collins! Wow! This coffee shop goes well above "as good as it gets." The coffee is excellent, the food is marvelous (VEGAN and GLUTEN FREE options), and the staff are all simply amazing people. MUGS is very much involved with the Ft Collins community, and I absolutely LOVE that they are very environmentally conscious. Their recycling is so organized, and they offer coffee ground compost for people to take home. Yoga-by-donation in the basement, and they share a building with the beautiful Armstrong Hotel. Great location right next to Colorado State. I agree with some of the other reviewers, however, **the music is played very loud**, but I've only had good experiences here. Free wi-fi, comfortable seating and lighting, creative decorations, great atmosphere.... I cannot say ENOUGH good things about this place. If you are nearby, you must stop in!
(5)Rob L.
Gotta love a place that offers Agave as a sweetener option, YES! And it's local and it's vegan and it's Mother Earth SUPER friendly! WINNER is all I have to say!
(5)Bill E.
I really like the energy of this place! It's a great place to grab some coffee, and explore the best food menu of any coffee place I am aware of in old town. Sometimes the music is a bit loud, so having a conversation is sometimes hard. Just make sure you're not right below one of the speakers. The fact there is outdoor seating = summertime bonus!
(4)Sean T.
I liked this much better than the Bean Cycle even though that was recommended by a few folks. Mugs has a great corner location - the coffee is really good and I'm now hooked on sweetening with brown sugar! The line was constant the entire time I was there and it's no surprise - definitely my favorite coffee house in Fort Collins - I even bought I mug - WooHoo! So basically what I'm trying to say is, if you don't go here, I will punch you in the face. And yo momma doesn't want that now does she?
(5)Chris W.
Wonderful atmosphere and awesome staff. Great coffee spot. Can't be beat
(5)Mary G.
Mugs is probably my favorite coffee shop in Fort Collins! I love the cozy atmosphere and have spent many hours there chatting with friends or doing homework. The service there is always very friendly and laid back and the drinks have always been yummy. If I've ever had any specific requests, they were met without hesitation.
(5)Marty S.
I love coffee! I always measure a coffee place by how good the black coffee is. If the black coffee is good, not a burned taste like at StarBurns then you know it only gets better from here. Great quick lunches and snacks, smoothies etc. Mugs has by far the best coffee in the Fort.
(5)Joe M.
My favorite coffee spot in town. Fantastic drinks (best chai in the city) and really good food. Like, surprisingly good. Friendly and competent staff. Beautiful location. All in all, the best in FoCo.
(5)Jon T.
Good local coffee shop. Very local feel. Many folks come in and connect their laptops and tap away while enjoying their coffee. They have great breakfast burritos in the morning. If you go a lot sign up for their frequent purchase card.
(4)Justina R.
Played a gig outside this coffee lounge and had an average experience when ordering some drinks and eats to fuel up before I had to perform. Not an inviting atmosphere in general. Service was quick but didn't feel like my business was appreciated. Average food and drinks. Average service. Not horrible. Not great.
(3)Nick S.
Coffee is so-so, atmophere is pretty cool, and local artist friendly. I love that they are pro environment and that they go out of their way to recycle and what not. Not a place I frequent, because in the end, I can lounge at numerous coffee joints in town, so the coffee that they offer is my numero uno concern, and in that aspect, they are not my first choice.
(3)Steve B.
Well we stopped in this morning for cup of joe & breakfeast. Coffee was hot and dark - good. We ordered sandwiches, you know at that other place they just microwave them and charge you $4-5, well these are handmade and they are really two in one. They were huge!! Eggs were nice and I'll say "fluffy" with fresh tomato, spinach/lettuce and cheese on a choice of breads. This was really good. I know we will be back.
(4)Brett H.
Decent atmosphere. Awesome corner location - definitely sit outside if it's warm outside. Café Americano was flavorful and the breakfast burrito was very tasty.
(4)Stephen K.
Good coffee, great location, atmosphere is okay. There's plenty of room downstairs, but it still feels like you're in thebasement.
(3)Shannon G.
Average. The service is hardly ever great and sometimes very rushed and rude--especially at the one on Laurel. The coffee is so-so. I do like the food menu and the gluten-free options. The store on Olive and College is nice with the downstairs area with seating, but the one on Laurel doesn't have as nice of atmosphere. Like others have said, this is an average coffee shop in a town of lots of coffee shops--I'd rather go to some of the others.
(3)Amy A.
I really like Mugs and it is nice to see a local store really trying to do great things. The fact that McCabe is growing a garden to bring fresh local food into Mugs speaks volumes. They are one of the few places around that actually composts and will even share their old coffee grounds with you to help your compost at home. The donation based Yoga in the basement of downtown is really cool and I can't wait to go check it out! It is definitely my go-to place for meetings or lunch or just to hang out.
(5)Cari B.
So they are trained to pretend to have seen you before here, so don't get weirded out if they tease you about your hat. However, they are nothing less than friendly and mean well. They have a fairly big downstairs area, great for a group who wants to play a board game and sip coffee. The upstairs can get crowded and a little warm.
(3)Sabrina K.
Yay! I love Mugs! The coffee is good and they have vegan food. It's a really cozy place and the staff is super friendly.
(5)Carolynne M.
The coffee here was astoundingly good and huge, the options and choices to the menu endless. And that is partly the problem. The menu is so vast and with so many possibilities, I rushed through ordering because I didnt want to hold up the line. I guess its no big deal if you come here all the time and know what you want, but I think my breakfast sandwich could have been so much more awesome had I had more than 30 seconds to look at the choices. Nice outdoor seating and nice folks behind the counter.
(4)Michelle F.
I love to sit outside or next to the Armstrong Hotel windows (so cool)... The kids love to hang out at Mugs. Open later than most. Gotta love that.
(5)katy b.
the BEST place to sit outside on a nice day. and the coffee, in my opinion, is great. i also recently had lunch there for the first time, and it was decently priced, and friggin' delicious. i also tried the morning something, which is basically just wheatgrass in orange juice, and even though i fell back asleep an hour later anyways, i feel like it was a good drink. i don't think i can blame mugs for my inability to study physics without sleeping. they also have some rockin' stuff go on here weeknights, and maybe i only think it's rockin' because i get spanish extra credit for going to see it, but poetry, cultural things, it's all pretty fascinating, if you're into that.
(5)Samantha M.
It's OK, not the best, average coffee
(3)Patty S.
I love this place! Great to pretend to do my class stuff...drinking many coffees, lattes, etc. the location is prime for people watching. The people are very laid back and oh soooo mellow! Kudos!
(5)Michel T.
this is my place to go when i feel like a coffee shop visit or just pop in for a to go boost. love how they are earth friendly so bring a coffee traveler and you will save big. food is great and the staff is very friendly. love the outside patio for people watching and if you ride a bike there is a huge rack just outside.
(4)Jocelyn H.
Okay. I know the owner's mom. Notwithstanding, this is a great cafe. What I loved THE MOST was the biodegradable corn-based plastic cold-drink cup and their overall commitment for doing a solid for the environment. That's not where the biodegradability ends - it continues through to their hot cups and other beverage conveyance devices. Also, all the coffee is Free Trade. I really liked the laid-back, hip, college-town feel of the place. Extensive menu. This was my first time in Colorado so I hightailed it to Fort Collins to see what the buzz was about. Okay. It was from McCabe's mom, but still. I ordered an ice coffee (one star subtracted because they didn't have decaf and the coffee in the fridge was still hot and melted my ice which equals diluted unflavorful coffee) and a Gentleman's Club (on croissant - really. Can't go wrong.) As I was biting into my sammich I thought "you know, some hot sauce would be great on this" and what did I bite into? Tabasco. Perf. Then I went into this whole fantasy in my head that Coloradans don't eat anything without hot sauce. I know it's not true, but I had fun making it up in my head and then proceeding to convince myself it was fact. The Club? Taste. Came with a pickle and non-Lays potato chips. I went in for a refill and a desert. I was full so didn't end up eating the tastalicious apple-caramel square until hours later, but I wish I could get that here! Mmmm [dribble]. Next trip to Colorado will definitely include another visit to Mugs.

This place is awesome, and that's coming from a Seattlite who happened to be in Ft. Collins for a friend's wedding. We do have lots of great coffee shops in Seattle, but when I needed a place to study and rejuvenate the morning after the wedding, the place was perfect. Not only did it have outlets and free internet, but also delicious bagels with cucumber and dill cream cheese and GREAT coffee. Hurray for Mugs!

In the 2 days I came here the girl got to know me. Maybe it was that I was still up and drunk the next morning that left the lasting impression of me wanting 1 of everything before I retiring to my room to disco nap.... good bagels and cream cheese and nutty yummy coffee.
