A really nice cafe to work from on a weekday. Lots of seating on the second floor and good drink selection. There are some power outlets, so be sure to check for that before you choose where to sit. I like the large worktable by the large windows, which has plenty of natural light. It can get a little noisy at times, but after lunch on a weekday is usually very quiet. Note that the restroom lock was broken when I visited.
This cafe is located inside the Starfield COEX mall (B1) near the escalator to the City Airport Terminal (CALT). Usually quiet in the morning, but gets busy around lunch time.
A solid place to sit and work at. Wifi is good but only some tables have power outlets. The large table is "reserved" for large groups. Good selection of tea and coffee and some snacks. Friendly staff.
A popular work spot with good WiFi, plenty of power outlets, and good natural light. It was quite empty in the morning but slowly filled around lunch time. Decent drink selection and small food items. There is a two hour time limit, but it didn't seem to be enforced on a weekday. Beware, if you speak too loud you may get told off!
A great work-friendly cafe by Taipei City Hall station. The first floor looks unassuming, but head downstairs and you'll find a very large space with many different seating areas, including sofas, small tables and large tables. Good for both individuals and large groups. Despite being underground the space is well-lit and has a good vibe. It can get a little noisy though when it gets busy. The menu has a little of everything, with good drinks and both desserts and proper meals. Decent WiFi, lots of power outlets, and very attentive staff. Be aware of the minimum spend rules. From 7:30-11 there is a minimum spend of one meal or drink per person. From 11-20 there is a minimum spend of 200. 10% service charge as well.
The free basement area is quite nice with some decent seating options. It was pretty much empty when we arrived. Really fast wifi. Be sure to check the event calendar though as the space might be booked.
A very nice outdoor terrace on the 7th floor. There are lots of restaurants inside, and lots of seating outside. Seems like a nice place to hang out with friends and get some food and drinks. It was quite peaceful. If you want to sit and work then make sure you bring a wifi hotspot.
The outdoor seating area is great for outdoor working when the weather is nice. Other than that this place is just ok. The main drawbacks being the very slow wifi and no power outlets. The high tables are good for standing working, but uncomfortable to sit at.
