    Named in 5 Reddit threads.

    "OBA Oosterdok - Public Library" is a good place to work, it's quiet, free and sells coffee. I think there's a small fee for wifi.

    coworking space72-H Eerste Jan SteenstraatWork 84

    Buro de Pijp is 4 euros per hour, its a desk/ coffee bar mix, not bad at all, but its in the Pijp so you probably got to metronor tram there (or get ov bike)
