Easily one of my new favorite cafe work spots in NYC. Silver Light Tavern is a bar/restaurant, however, during the day they open their space for a small cafe. The interior looks really cool, featuring dark colors and lots of natural light, giving a very cool vibe.

It wasn't busy on a weekday so we could easily get a large table for ourselves. The booth seating is super comfortable, idle for some laptop work. Every table also has power and the WiFi is very fast. There's a decent selection of pastries, cooked food, tea and coffee. So if you want to stop by for lunch that's an option as well. Also worth mentioning, the staff was very friendly and welcoming!

A small coffee shop right by the river in Williamsburg. It's mostly a takeout place, but there are some nice counter seats with views overlooking lower manhattan and brooklyn bridge. There's coffee, snacks, ice cream, good WiFi, and lots of power outlets. A great spot for getting some work done for a couple of hours on a weekday.

There is a restroom, although it was unavailable during my visit.

I usually don't find Blue Bottle Coffee to be especially comfortable to work from. However, this location has comfortable cushioned seats along the walls by the windows, good enough to sit and work for a couple of hours.

On a weekday morning it was quiet and not very busy, although I imagine it might get busy around lunch time or in the afternoon. There are plenty of power outlets, although the large worktables in the middle don't have any. The WiFi is a little slow, but it works.

(The restroom sink and toilet flush was broken during my visit. Hopefully that was just a temporary issue though...)

Amazing cafe for getting work done. Calm atmosphere, quiet music. Power outlets are everywhere. surprisingly comfortable wood chairs. Second floor is really bright, surrounded by windows with some comfy sofas. There is a big table. Cozy and vast selection of coffee and tea. Friendly owner.

Quite busy during weekdays. The 2nd floor is where you'd want work. Nice window counter seating. There are some standing desks available, and a lot of power outlets in the walls. Internet isn't great since there is many people, try to come with your hotspot.

A fairly large cafe with two floors, lots of seating options, and very comfortable chairs. Good WiFi and plenty of power outlets as well. I really like the second floor since there are two large work tables, great for working. Although the second floor closed early (at 16:00), so I had to move downstairs. I'm not sure why or if that's always the case.

The vibe is quite nice, not too busy on a Friday afternoon, and not very noisy either (especially on the second floor). The menu is very large, with a lot of food options, so it's probably a good place to have a working lunch, although I imagine it might get a little busy during lunch time (I'll have to come back and check some time).

A great cafe near Kunyang MRT, just a short 10 minute walk from the station. Although this at first might feel more like a restaurant it is definitely very workable on a weekday. I would recommend coming here for brunch or lunch and trying some of the great dishes, then working the rest of the day. I particularly like the counter seats by the windows, which looked like a nice spot to sit and work from. The WiFi is good and there are lots of power outlets. The cafe feels bright and modern, but it was a little noisy at times (people talking and slightly too loud music).

Rustic interior. Fantastic cinnamon buns and nice drinks (black tea was very good). The WiFi is super fast, but lacking power outlets (there is one by the large worktable though).

A small coffee shop right across from exit 5 of Nangang Expo MRT. The interior is small, with one high table and a couple of seats by the window. But, it feels bright, modern, quite comfortable and not very busy. The menu selection is good, they offer plenty of coffee, some good Taiwanese tea, and some small snacks as well. The WiFi is very fast, there are some power outlets, but no restroom, so it's probably only suitable for short work sessions.
