Nice environment and very friendly staff. Food is ok – iced matcha not good.
Also the WiFi was very weak & slow and kept kicking me off. Not a productive place for work if you need WiFi.
Wifi speed is exaggerated. Also not sure what the deal is, I can connect easy enough via my Android phone, but my Thinkpad running Ubuntu is having trouble here. I can connect to the network but get no internet service. My friend sitting next to me was able to get a live connection with her MacBook after disconnecting and reconnecting.
Really friendly staff, lots of tables with plenty of plugs along the wall.
The coffee is quite good and the pastries are decent.
Wifi kept kicking out for me today, but it was certainly usable.
Not sure if I was in the best part of the cafe for signal strength, I’ll have to experiment.
My favorite place to work in Playa! Best time to go is in the afternoon, around 1pm to avoid the morning rush when it’s pretty packed. The afternoon there is lots of room though. The food / drinks / coffee is all amazing. Overall cute atmosphere to work in 🙂 Always had reliable internet too.
