Best Cafes to Work From Around the World

200 cities with 1,000 verified laptop-friendly cafes across 80 countries. The global average WiFi speed across all tested cafes is 35 Mbps, with an average work-friendly score of 7.6/10. Every cafe has been evaluated on four key metrics: WiFi reliability, power outlet access, ambient noise level, and seating comfort for extended sessions.

This guide is built for digital nomads, remote workers, and freelancers who treat cafes as their office. Unlike generic review sites, our scores reflect actual working conditions — not just coffee quality or ambiance. We test WiFi during peak hours, verify outlet placement, and assess whether staff are comfortable with multi-hour stays. Data is updated monthly and all scores are independently calculated.
