Add a way to filter by free parking and I'm sold.
Nice point Eric. I'll add this to our list to chat about.
I second this! My biggest issue with finding the right coffee shop is no parking or having to pay for meters.
by is another slick site for finding coffee shops to work from.
My number 1 search when I'm in a new city is good coffee shops to work from with solid Wi-Fi and plugs. I know there's a few sites that exist that help with this but my problem was making it easy to see while I was on the go. Oftentimes, I would just have my phone and needed to find the closest place around me. So what we did with this project is connect each city to a Foursquare list that can be saved on your phone and seen when you open Foursquare's app. We created collections for 10 of the biggest cities in North America and London in the UK. 100 coffee shops total with Wi-Fi passwords and plug locations. If you don't have Foursquare, we added a Google Map that uses your location data to spot what's closest to you. Our goal was to find enough coffee shops so you could move from coffee shop to coffee shop on foot. Hope this helps if you're traveling and looking to get some work done :) More on backstory for why we built this here: Feel free to recommend a coffee shop here:
I was thinking about creating something similar. What's are the other services that exist?
Similar to Instabridge.com. 200k networks and counting.
The lists are no longer working!?
Nice work! I'd love to have your recommendations added to Workfrom as well. You're clearly part of the family :) and if I can be helpful!
Thanks ! Ya, Workfrom looks great man. Saw you're from Portland. Would love to grab coffee if I make it there. I guess we'll know where to go :)
100%. I'd love to grab coffee as well.
Gentlemen: It seems there's a bunch of us who believe in the "working from coffee shops" culture. Rightfully so! Happy to get in on the collective action with . Hit me up . (It's powered by Sam.)
Awesome stuff guys. I noticed Calgary, AB wasn't on there. After living in San Francisco for a bit, I realize I under appreciated the number of great cafes to work from in the city. Although, a lot of them are new or new-ish, the city is changing rapidly as it's been growing quite fast. I submitted a whole bunch to you guys, a couple of the shops have multiple locations as well.
Thanks so much Eric! Got 'em :)
Oh weird I thought this was going to be Philip Rosedale's Coffee and Power. I guess that shut down? Anyway, this is awesome. I work out of coffee shops all the time. I have a few good ones to add here in NYC and SF.
Beautifully executed MVP, love that it points to Foursquare lists :)
Thanks Taylor :) Ya, we were thinking of maybe doing something for mobile but Foursquare did what we needed to make it work more or less the way we wanted it to.
Love this. Glad there is a "suggest to unlock" feature at the bottom.
