The best cafés to work from in Philadelphia

“There's plenty of seating in the post-apocalyptic chic room, which makes it useful for a Center City meeting over Caffè Umbria coffee, pastries, grain bowls, and sandwiches.”

“Unlike the rest of the coffee shops on this list, Chapterhouse stays open consistently late, making it the ideal spot for a marathon day of midterm studying.”

“Reserve a table in advance to ensure your spot — there aren’t many of them but the atmosphere is quiet and both the wifi and coffee are strong.”

“This free wifi hasn’t harmed any animals. Vegan snacks and very decent coffee, plus lots of tables to spread out and work.”

“Come to their Fairmount location for deep work and confectionary delights ranging from tiny whoopie pies to moist tahini loaf cake.”

“Cafe Walnut is spacious and seemed great for working the one time I’ve been. Coffee is meh but the place is nice. Near a great park too!”

“Milkcrate Cafe on Giard in Fishtown is a cool spot. They have a separate room on the side with booths and I have brought my laptop in there and got some work done while having pretty good coffee.”

“No matter the season, the light flows in through the windows in a way that would take anyone out of a work slump. Schedule a lunch meeting here, then spend the rest of the day cranking away in this little oasis.”

“I’m currently remote working at Elixr’s coffee shop in Rittenhouse and can tell you firsthand that the coffee is strong, the wifi is fast, and the people-watching is excellent.”

“Third this, they just put in more outlets, great espresso/coffee anything then wine, amaros, beer etc. good tunes and a respectful staff. I go there with my laptop and it’s always a good spot”
