Best Cafes to Work From in Orlando
Working from home is great until it's not. If you need a change of scenery, these are the kinds of Orlando cafes where you can open a laptop for a few hours without getting the side-eye.
What makes a good work cafe
Wifi that actually works. Outlets you don't have to crawl under a table for. Enough seating that you're not hogging a spot. And honestly, good light. Natural light makes everything better.
- Go early or go late Weekday mornings before 10 and mid-afternoons are the sweet spots.
- Buy something every couple hours It's the rent. Keep your favorite spots in business.
- Headphones are your friend Some of the best cafes are also the busiest.
Downtown and Thornton Park
Downtown has a cluster of cafes near Lake Eola, plus the Orlando Public Library, which is free, quiet, and criminally underrated.
Mills 50
Mills 50 has the most personality per square foot. Independent cafes, great pastries, and plenty of lunch options within walking distance.
Winter Park and College Park
Both are perfect for slower, prettier work days. Park Avenue and Edgewater Drive each have spots with patios under the oaks. See Winter Park and College Park.
