A laptop-friendly space in Portland
They have big industrial power strips, so if you have multiple pieces of gear, you need not worry. There's outside seating and a smoking area, outside if you are into that. A little too much noise on the street and inside for phone calls, but the music is cool and its not so loud you can't block it with nice set of headphones. They have great coffee, but also server beer/wine and lots of food options: breakfast and lunch fare, including healthy and veggie options, as well as the usual pastries.

Struggled alot with wifi reliability and speeds today. Others with me did as well. It was busy with people working and that may have been the reason.
Wifi is fast and reliable. Plenty of seating and lots of power outlets. There’s a huge power strip by the windows and a couple others spread throughout. Also, the coffee and bagels are great.
New Wifi, now password protected. MUCH faster … just tested download >50Mbps and ping <9ms with 28 devices connected.
Wifi was kind of slow, couldn’t reliably open my Gmail account, uploads and downloads took awhile. But for free wifi and no password necessary, it’s not a complaint. Super cheap food and drinks! Will be back.
Pros:
WiFi is fast and reliable
Coffee is good
Cons:
Very few customers – feels somewhat lonely
No energy/vibe to motivate studying/working
Can be cold is seating next to the windows
