Hidden gem for cofficers out there. If you bring your own wifi, the quiet mezzanine has a private feeling and offers enough sitting space and power outlets to hang out and stay for a working lunch.
Free WiFi and plenty of power outlets for all your gadgets. Get some coffee (and maybe a waffle) and get to work! Read more.
If you get here early enough, you can get the corner coffice! Also, stay for lunch and try their sandwiches and flat bread pizzas.
Recharge yourself with a great selection of teas. Also, recharge your phone and laptop at the power outlets conveniently installed at the standing bar.
Large community tables, free wifi, and the nicest staff - great place to get work done or catch up with a friend.
The drinks here are better than Starbucks! Tip second floor is a great place to just chill while drinking your coffee
My new favorite place to work in this part of Midtown. Decent coffee, but comfortable, spacious seating. Good ambience, not too loud, free WiFi. Road warriors rejoice!
Wonderful giant place with a friendly staff and great atmosphere. It's like a chill lounge cafe joint. LOVE their cappuccinos : )
Good place for getting breakfast/food/coffee and it has the wifis. Team SpotOn/Fondu got together here quite often back in the day. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more.
Naveen & I built 1/2 of the foursquare prototype here (mostly at the back table near the bathroom). The "mayor" feature in 4SQ came from our buddy Chad making fun of us for camping at that table :)
There is no outlet power available on the first floor - so head upstairs, where there is lots of extra seating as well as comfortable outdoor space for the nice weather.
my fav cafe in all NYC. great working environment, friendly, crowd changes throughout day into night
They roast their own coffee here, and it's usually great. Try a single origin espresso or pourover and something from their Essex St bakery. A good number of plugs but sometimes overwhelmed wifi.
the wifi password is 341east10 and there's an outlet by the stools near the corner.
Great place to sneak an iced coffee and a mini peanut butter and jelly sandwich (on baguette no less) while you're walking around Soho. Also a good place to chill and do some work on the long benches.
Stumptown coffee, free wifi, books on the bookshelves and couches in the back. Reminds me of the old school coffee shops we'd hang out at in high school. Awesome addition to the area!
Winner of Best Makeover in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! The snickerdoodle with saffron takes a standby and makes it divine.
Coffee + free wifi, what's not to like? I've told them, tho, they need more food options than bagels & muffins. I'm paying their neighbors for sandwiches while using their wifi. Don't go broke please!
Tucked into an amazingly quiet & serene corner of Brooklyn just a short walk from the Promenade, Iris is a charming place w/ laid back atmosphere. The smoked curried turkey salad is incredibly tasty!
Great coffee and plenty of space to set up shop. The vibe is lively, so if you are planning to stay for a while and get some work done, you should probably bring your headphones. Read more.
Photographer Sam Horine calls it "a unicorn" (we're surprised he's not the Mayor). A knowledgeable, unpretentious staff. Pro tip: Sunday morning they do homemade cinnamon buns and bacon cheddar buns.
Love this little place! Friendly staff and yummy treats with a cute loft and free WiFi. I wish it were in my neighborhood.
A large gloomy space sporting a beautiful Mistral espresso machine, Modca has wifi, plugs, many tables & one big communal one. They use 49th Parallel Coffee from Vancouver and prepare it acceptably.
A new Stumptown shop in Williamsburg serving quality espresso & rotating French press offerings, lots of seats & plugs & strong wifi, built by the owner w/ reclaimed barn wood and found objects.
Great noms and coffee, wifi, and a lovely backyard. Try the pesto baked eggs and an arnold palmer. If you're working inside, bring a sweater- it can get cold with the AC.
Like an episode of Portlandia but that's why I love it. Good vibe, good music. Coffee isn't amazing but the hot chocolate is pretty good. Free wifi. Get the choc chip banana bread!
If your workplace is a laptop, consider this location your new boffice (bar+office=boffice) Get amped with $2 bottomless coffee, or mellow out w/ a $5 locally-made Sin Cider. Read more on MetroFocus Read more.
They have outlets! Staff is also super sweet, coffee's good, and it's never crowded.
Great place for an informal meeting or to get some work done. Coffee is good, and the place can get crowded, seating and plugs are plentiful, and the WiFi connection solid. Read more.
Smallish, comfortable, with a staff that relentlessly curates a strong indie soundtrack overhead, sometimes of the 90's variety. Good food, solid wifi.
Good place to work during the week, but no laptops allowed on the weekends. Cash only.
One of the few places in the city where you can park with your laptop and work while enjoying your coffee.
The food is aight but the vibe is great. Very laid-back and casual. If you're looking to get work done in your sweatpants come here. It's not one of the trendy/beautiful people cafes in the EV.
Has free wifi upstairs (yay!). Make sure you ask for the password-not posted anywhere. Otherwise you have to eat, then pack up your laptop, go ask for the password, then go back up and set up again.
One of our all time favorite coffee shops around! Counter culture coffee+great baristas+cool space+free wifi = you have to go here immediately! You'll have some of the best espresso around!
If you're trying to be productive over your coffee, sit in the back. The view of Cortelyou road through the big front windows is way too interesting and distracting.
