Let’s face it — not all coffee shops are great places to get work done. Either they’re too busy, loud, or just uncomfortable. Or, even worse, there’s a dearth of outlets or spotty Wi-Fi. On this list you’ll find the best spots to write your paper or novel, answer emails, or casually browse the internet while staying active on Slack.

With 24-hour options like Bennu; coffee houses with a view of the Colorado River, such as Mozart’s; quiet neighborhood joints like Flightpath; and coffee-bar combos including the Meteor, Radio, and Cosmic, there are plenty of places to sip the hours away in front of your laptop. Just don’t forget your charger!
