Best work-friendly cafes with free WiFi in Singapore
1. Working Title
It’s all the name, and we’re calling this cafe the best place to whittle down your to-do list. This spot has it all: a laidback ambience, good food and speedy WiFi. If you plan to work from the Lasalle outlet, grab a seat at the long table near the wall ‘cos that’s where the charging ports are. But if your laptop’s all juiced up, you can chill out anywhere and clack away at your keyboard.
Working Title, multiple locations including #01-01, Lasalle College of the Arts, Blk D, 1 Mcnally Street, Singapore 187940
2. Louisa Coffee
If you’re in Bugis but don’t wanna work at the library because it’s too quiet, hit up this new joint at Guoco Midtown. It has all the trappings of a work-friendly cafe in Singapore: plenty of power plugs, free WiFi and, of course, coffee. Sip on the orange peel latte as you respond to emails and attend online meetings. Feeling peckish? Nosh on a slice of Boston cream pie for a sugar rush (and some motivation).
Louisa Coffee, #01-13 & 14, Guoco Midtown, 130 Beach Road, Singapore S189774

It takes two hands to clap, so if you need a space to gather your colleagues for a fruitful collaboration, this quaint cafe is it.

Listen, we know there are too many distractions at home. We get it!

6. An Acai Affair
We won’t gatekeep this work-friendly cafe at Bukit Timah because you deserve to know about it too! Besides the free WiFi, it’s a quiet space where you can get your work (or study) done without any distractions. Bonus points for the pleasing aesthetics, which we absolutely adore. The only caveat is that there aren’t any power points, so make sure your laptop is juiced up before heading over. Order an acai bowl, make yourself comfy, and get busy.
An Acai Affair, 617 Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 269718
7. Twenty Grammes
A minimalistic, industrial-chic space in Kampong Glam, this work-friendly cafe is known for its frosty gelato swirls, house-made waffles and cakes.

Fast WiFi? Check. Exceptional coffee? Double check. Cool, work-friendly vibes? Yep, the joint’s got it all, especially at its lovely Fusionopolis location. Beans from Colombia and Papua New Guinea are roasted in small batches to coax out the best flavours from each variety. So go ahead and get that espresso, cold brew or long black you like. Other drink alternatives include citrus chai spritzer and matcha latte. To curb those hunger pangs, nosh on rostis, sweet or savoury toasts, and sandwiches made with bagels or croissants.

9. Group Therapy
We’re big fans of Group Therapy’s little nooks where you’ll be tucked away from the bustle of the CBD without having to venture too far from civilisation. Pop by on weekdays to avoid the brunch crowd and pick a table close to the window for natural light as you scarf down pasta, acai bowls, egg dishes and house-made cakes. If you need a wake-up call, the menu’s got you covered with espresso, cappuccino and piccolo latte, along with hot chocolate, matcha latte and chai latte.

But if you like extra coffee with your coffee, try the Academics Coffee Churros dusted in coffee cinnamon sugar.
The Coffee Academics, multiple locations including Millenia Walk and Ocean Financial Centre
13. Komyuniti
A social space to eat, drink and be merry, Komyuniti is also great for its super-speed WiFi and numerous charging ports. No surprise, since it sits on the 10th floor of tech-savvy hotel Yotel. Since it’s not really a cafe, you won’t get your usual eggs benny or waffles. Instead, you’ll be treated to flavourful plates of teriyaki chicken rice, pasta carbonara, mini sliders and duck fat fries. All of these can be washed down with coffees and organic teas, or you can start happy hour early with the cocktail concoctions.
