Working from home is the new normal and with load shedding an even more constant threat, we look at restaurants and coffee shops that offer all the remote working conveniences. Nowadays, for a coffee shop to make it on the ‘favourite list’, Wi-Fi and accessible plug points are a MUST. Here are the Mother City’s spots that cater for your remote working needs:
Truth Coffee
Only a two-minute walk from District Six Museum, this café is for the proclaimed coffee lovers, with its home-roasted coffee and exotic premium blends that have equally exotic names like Black Honey, Resurrection and Nicaragua premium blends. If not for the coffee, then drop by for its Wi-Fi which is free for as long as you’re there.
Burger & Lobster
The name says it all right? But that’s not all they offer. From lockdown menu specials to signature cocktails, this local favourite on Bree is perfect for remote working with its limitless Wi-Fi, comfortable seating and you guessed it…plugs near your seat.
Ground Art Caffe
What came first, the artwork or the coffee beans? We say it doesn’t matter because this fine establishment combines two of the city’s greatest loves — art and coffee. With outdoor and indoor seating, no wonder it’s ideal for remote working.
Kloof Street House
Leafy garden, eclectic décor and Instagram-able views, this Victorian-style restaurant offers fine dining with a cosy ambience and of course, is remote-working friendly. While there are no plugs to charge your laptop and phone in the seating area, the quality of the Wi-Fi makes up for all of that.
Origin Coffee Roasting
Fancy your coffee beans roasted on-site and served any way you like it by the artisans? Then come ‘set up’ your mobile workstation at one of their power outlets and indulge in their salad bowls or baked goods between your virtual meetings.
