  1. 01Highly Likely

    café4310 West Jefferson BoulevardWi‑FiWork 100

    They also have a large bar inside so if you’re less in a coffee mood you can do work over a beer or a glass of wine instead. Can’t recommend enough, super fast wifi too!

  2. 02Awesome Coffee

    café3959 Wilshire BoulevardWork 64

    My fav two spots for this are Awesome Coffee and Tom N Toms Black. They're very close to each other too. TNTB is open until midnight and has a nice mess of food options too! Awesome is open until 2 am, not as many food options but still really good.
