This Buenas Migas is very close from a station so access by train is amazing. There are only 8 tables by the wall that has power outlet. The food selection is not the best but has enough things if you need a quick bite. The coffee tasted little off for the one I ordered but maybe it was just a one off. The music was bit loud, and they were playing a lot of bossa nova mix of popular pop songs, so if you're easily distracted and can't stop the urge of singing along, make sure to bring a ANC headphone. And maybe not the best place to make calls for that reason.
Large lounge across two floors with many different seating areas. The first floor is usually quite busy, second floor by the bar is quieter.
This library is filled with highschool kids and college students who are studying / nomad workers. The google review says it's not a good library but for sure it is a great spot to get things done :) The desks were available in the morning but quickly fills up in the afternoon. There are plenty of outlets even with direct USB-A and C sockets next to it. The downstairs is a food hall where you can grab some Chinese or other Asian food. The square in front of it is clean and beautiful too.
As soon as I stepped into this cafe I knew it would become a new favorite. The interior is simple but still has a very unique vibe. It was quite busy on a weekday afternoon, but still very quiet, making it a great place to get some work done. Luckily for me there was still some tables left that I could grab. The menu is large, offering desserts and small snacks, however the main highlight is definitely the huge selection of tea. You'll definitely find something interesting to try!
A hidden gem near Zhongxiao Fuxing. I visited this cafe on a Saturday and I was worried it would be very busy. However, that was not the case, there was only one other group during the whole day. I imagine weekdays are probably quiet as well. The cafe entrance is hidden on the 2nd floor of the building. If the outside door is locked, then you need to press 7202 on the buzzer.
The interior feels spacious and bright, with large windows over looking the street and MRT line. Music was a little loud, but other than that it was a great work environment. The menu selection is all vegan, and all "milk" drinks use almond milk. As a non-coffee drinker the latte tasted quite good to me. Unfortunately the tea selection was quite small.
A fairly new Dreamers location near Dongmen station. If you take the narrow staircase up to the 2nd floor you'll find a large seating area, with a large worktable and many small individual tables. The seats near the large windows have nice views and let in some natural light. On a weekday morning it was fairly quiet and not too busy.
A quirky but cozy cafe with interesting decorations. The inside is quite large with plenty of seating options. I especially like the music selection, which was a mix of soft low-fi, piano, jazz, and instrumental music. The WiFi is great, the food/drinks options are really good (you can have a proper meal here), and the staff was very friendly. There are some drawbacks though. Most of the seats are hard and not very comfortable for extended stays, and some of the larger tables are lacking access to power outlets. In any case, it's nice to spend time here in the morning when it's very quiet, it got a little busy during lunch time though.
A great cafe/bookshop for working, studying, or simply just to go read some books at. The atmosphere feels relaxed and quiet. The chairs are comfortable, and individual table lamps provide good lighting. There are several seats near the front of the shop, and another room in the back (which I didn't notice at first). I chose the seat by the window though, which was a great spot to spend the afternoon working from. Perhaps I was lucky, but the day I visited was very quiet, with many people either studying or working. The menu is quite large, with plenty of food and drinks. If you're looking to have a drink and a snack, the tea cake set was a great option.
