Cafe del Art on Plaza Cascorro near the La Latina metro (2 stops from Callao) are remote work friendly, nice cafe and they won't mind you sitting there for a long time so long as you order a coffee or two!
r/MadridFebruary 2023 I recommend the Reina Sofía library, it's impressive and it's not very far from the BNE. You can bring a laptop and whatever, the only thing is you have to get a card

r/MadridMarch 2023 Municipal Public Library Ana Maria Matute is a public library in the Carabanchel district of Madrid, open weekdays from 8:30 AM to 8 or 9 PM. The library is wheelchair accessible. The library is suitable for studying and work.
My favourite library in Madrid is the Ana María Matute one (it's around Marqués de Vadillo, L5). You don't need a card, you can always find a place to work comfortably and the views are great.
