Order a cup and charge up: These Prague cafes are a haven for remote workers

The "Cities Best Facilitating Remote Work" global index, compiled by the WorkMotion platform, recently named Prague as the best city in Europe for remote work. This distinction is based on various factors, including regulations supporting remote work, cost of living, availability of public amenities, and legal obligations. For those in search of a laptop-friendly cafe to work comfortably from for extended periods, here are some recommendations for where to power up, plug in, order a cup, and start working.

A top pick in the Vinohrady area is Miners. It stands out with its large windows that provide plenty of natural lighting, which helps enhance concentration. The spacious interior provides ample room for comfortable laptop work, while a dedicated area in the center offers convenient power outlets positioned discreetly under the tables. Once you start work, there is no need to ask anyone for the Wi-Fi password as it is open and freely available. 

Located near the National Museum in the center of Prague, Cafedu is easily accessible, as it is situated right outside a tram stop. With its two spacious floors, you don't have to worry about taking up space for an extended period while you complete your tasks, study, or work. And, if you prefer an outdoor setting, seating options are available outside the cafe.

If you're looking for a dedicated workspace, you can choose to use the study room upstairs (available for a fee). The study room is open 24/7, including weekends and public holidays, making it convenient for those who need to work during late hours or on weekends. Inside the study room is a quiet room if you prefer a silent work environment. However, if your work involves conference calls or group projects, there is a separate room available for such activities.

As a student, you can take advantage of discounted rates using your ISIC card or providing confirmation of your student status. For students, the daily fee is CZK 80, and for non-students, it is CZK 180.

The café provides reliable Wi-Fi and convenient outlets, allowing you to spend a few hours working comfortably without interruptions.

When you visit Žižkavárna Cafe, don't forget to check the Wi-Fi password written on the cup at the counter before finding a seat.

If you prefer a peaceful and quiet spot to concentrate, you can choose a small table that offers enough space for you and your laptop.

With ample space available, you can comfortably spend a significant amount of time without feeling cramped.

When you place your order, simply ask for the Wi-Fi password, which will be provided to you just before you choose your seat.

Sitting in Prague 6, in the neighborhood of Bubeneč, Kavárna Místo offers ample space and reliable Wi-Fi.
