Benjamin 🦅 Hawkyard: Good coffee shop for working, free WiFi and relatively quiet during working hours. Not much else to do nearby though so it has to be an all day affair.

HISTORY UK: This Vespa showroom has become a trendy ‘50s themed cafe, with atmospheric soundtrack and a Milanese1957 Faema Urania coffee machine that aficionados rave about.
Hassan Mirza: Funky arty coffee house with 80s pop star posters on the wall...and free Wi-fi! Feel like I'm in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Sad it's only open till 7, would be happy to chill here this eve.

Omid Ashtari: Amazing place to work from for as they have reliable WiFi. Staff is super nice and will give you some freebies if you spend enough time there. There are only one set of plugs at the entrance though.
7 Upper St. Martin's Ln (Tower St), London, Greater London
Coffee Shop · Holborn and Covent Garden · 266 tips and reviews
Amanda Foley: Timberyard was sorely needed in the Covent Garden area. It's a freelancers dream with lots of plugs, WiFi, plenty of tables, meeting rooms for hire, amazing coffee and great food served all day!
Deniz Aslan: Seats are very comfortable and there's lots of space. With unlimited WiFi, this is the best place to work or study! This soho branch is much better than the Covent garden one which is always freezing!
