Wondering where the best cafes to work from are? If you live (or are travelling) in Sydney, read on for my favourites!
One of my favourite parts of working for myself is the ability to work from different locations.
When I travel, I love to explore new cafes and working spots - last year I worked from cafes in Paris, Abu Dhabi, Miami, LA, Mexico, Singapore and New Zealand - yet equally every time I come home to Bondi Beach here in Sydney I feel so super excited to get back into ‘everyday’ life as we really do have some of the best working cafes I’ve found.
I frequent different cafes every week to mix up the atmosphere depending on my mood or the task at hand. I also do my regular Wednesday Working Dates from some of these cafes so have shared with you which ones are good for wifi use too!

My top 7 cafes to work from in Bondi
Here are some of my favourites:
Bondi Wholefoods (winner) - free wifi, healthy whole foods and an open-air but covered space. I did joke recently that I might start an undercover tv show from this cafe due to the ‘online business conversations’ that are frequently overheard here. My friend/accountability buddy and I work here every Wednesday afternoon - if you need a good dose of Pomodoro technique, stop by and join us.
Chapter One - free wifi on weekdays, cosy and pretty quiet (although some days it resembles a working hub)
Orchard Street - I love the calm, peaceful atmosphere here and it's home to some of my favourite juices, good coffee, kombucha on tap, and delicious (and healthy!) sweet treats - so I often head here for early morning inspiration and productivity.
The Grassy Knoll along Bondi Beach - free beach wifi (or use your phone hotspot as the signal isn't always great), best view in the world, fresh air and the pavillions have sturdy 'picnic tables' which I often enjoy sitting at to coach or write. I've been heading down with my Mexican blanket for picnic-style working the last few weeks.
Gertrude and Alice - a bookstore with the best Almond Milk Chai Tea in the world, no wifi and they can get strict on the ‘no laptop’ policy from time to time - good for shorter working blocks and coffee meetings - or for quiet reading when it's an advantage to have no wifi.
Lox Stock and Barrel - admittedly not the best service but if you're working that's not a problem - in fact, you get more time at the table! - and I like this spot for its delicious breakfasts. I use my phone hotspot for wifi.
Coogee Pavillion - wifi and wine make for the perfect last-minute Friday working date with friends before winding down for the week. (Technically not Bondi but a short 15 min drive to neighbouring beach Coogee)
