  • While I was in Madrid last week, I discovered CaféOlé! Clubworking, a café-coworking space, and I loved it. The working atmosphere is great, and I had the chance to meet some interesting people. Lastly, the coffees made by the staff are excellent. I highly recommend it!

    Very important info: I went to Nomade cafe to work and they told me it’s possible only after 2pm. So have that in mind if you’d like to work on your laptop.

    Hi Joachim, I agree that La Infinito is a great cafe for working / studying and they have a great selection of books too. I also really like the workspace downstairs. La Colectiva Cafe has a great workspace in their basement too! I recently wrote a blog post with my favorite cafes to work in and thought you might be interested to read it. https://blog.ailolamadrid.com/2018/08/13/best-cafes-for-studying-spanish-in-madrid/
