I was in NYC, it was a combination of a work and hang-out trip. During the week I needed a place to camp out and get some blogging work done and the hunt for awesome coffee shops in the city began.
This is a coffee place after all and if you’re going to be there all day, it might as well be for damn good coffee. Oh and don’t forget about the food.
What really makes it an awesome coffice is that it has an enormous amount of table space. It’s almost as if they designed this place with coffice in mind.
I found myself at Stumptown for an early morning meeting. I really enjoyed the old-time kind of feel it gave off. The well used laquered wood of the coffee bar and mellow hipster music set the tone.
There are smaller square tables, larger rectangle tables, and couches. It was just the right amount of noise level, ambiance, music and didn’t have that overpowering coffee smell everywhere.
The food of course was delicious. The coffee fabulous but they made a huge cardinal sin – there was no wifi. I decided to just tether my cell phone since I had data in the US.
It’s not a big place at all but they manage to cram in a lot of table space which is impressive. It does get very busy in the day though so it might get a bit competitive for spots.
Wifi here is fully open here and after ordering my iced tea, I easily found a table to work from. I loved how this place had an emphasis on table space, chairs.
