Paris: Laptop Friendly Cafés👩💻☕️
Hilary Matson | @hilaryinparis
Available for hire
36 (!) Laptop-friendly spaces to work in Paris (NOT paid co-working spaces, but coffee shops open to the public that I've personally visited and worked from).
I pay attention to:
📶 wifi (duh)
☕️ coffee (essential)
🍽️ food (does it go beyond pastries?)
✅ table quality
🔌 outlet availability
🙂 friendliness of staff
This guide includes:
💎 4 Gems! ... Best all-around, my absolute faves.
🥇 18 Great ... They have it all, but only a few can be my “coup de coeur” 🙃. One is gluten free!
✔️ 12 Great (but missing something) ... Wonderful shops that are lacking in one or two areas. + 1 sister café
➡️ 2 laptop-friendly cafes I want to try next
1 FREE guide to my favorite laptop-free coffee shops
As I revisit each shop, I'm adding...
📶 The actual wifi password, so you don't have to ask
☕️ The cost of an allongé* to use as a price benchmark
*An allongé is a ‘long coffee’, or one espresso shot with hot water, but smaller than an Americano.
BONUS:
🇫🇷 1 laptop-friendly café in Metz
🇬🇧 4 laptop-friendly places to work in London (Southbank, Kensington, Angel)
You also get:
✍️ My personal notes for each recommendation
📍 An interactive map of all recommendations
🔓 Access to all future updates when you SAVE this guide
🎞️ Linked videos (where applicable) that bring recommendations and advice to life

My absolute favorite, favorite, favorite. Wonderful staff and menu, and always playing great music. Frequently bustling. Pro tip: Be prepared to NOT work during lunch hours as they can get really busy! The food is so good though, you should just take a break to eat :) And then keep on working. Also to be aware: this is a roastery, so sometimes it can be quite loud as they roast their beans. Still, this place has my heart.
☕️ Allongé 3.50€

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hilary Matson | @hilaryinparis

Hello et bonjour ! I'm (another) American in Paris.
I've lived in France since 2016 and I loooove sharing my Paris & France recs in hopes I can help others love this city and country as much as I do. I'm quite confident I've seen more of France than most French people, so no matter what you're looking for, I've (probably) done it!
✅ What I'm a great fit for: Mature travelers, couples, solo travelers, and families who enjoy soaking in authentic experiences, great food and wine, off-the-beaten-track gems, classic sites, and sustainable travel.
🌱 What's sustainable travel about? Traveling in a way that is kind to the environment, respectful of local culture, & supportive of the local economy. My trip-planning services are always through a sustainable lens.
❌ What I'm not a great fit for: Travelers focused on bars/clubbing or high-end shopping.
➡️ Follow me on TikTok, Instagram & Pinterest @hilaryinparis for Paris & France recommendations, tips, personal stories, and more.
🌍 PS: I'm on Thatch because I genuinely love sharing France with folks. My day job is running Yugen Earthside, a booking platform for responsible package trips primarily catering to groups of mature American travelers. My company's website is linked below.
