Working in a coffee shop can be very comfortable if you find a nice place. You can stay for a long time and you are provided with coffee, that keeps you awake. They are often very loud, so bring your headphones if you want to be uninterrupted.

Hotel lobbies of big hotels are very comfortable. Most of the time, they will only offer free wifi for their guest, but sometimes they also do for everyone. If they don’t you should always ask them for an access key, with a good story you will probably get one.
Restaurants
All the big fast-food chains like McDonald’s, Burger King, A&W and co. offer free wifi. It depends, what you need the wifi for, but most of these places are not made to work there for a long time. They are very loud, they smell of fat and are very busy. Normal Restaurants are a good alternative for them. Most of the time they also offer free wifi, if you don’t come at a very busy time, you can stay there very long and have a way better atmosphere.
