The best cafe to work in Kyoto. You have many seats on the 1st floor and some outdoor seats on the terrace on the 2nd floor too. You can only stay 2 hours per order.
Free coffee and free snacks, even free beer. It is recommended to buy their monthly subscription or day tickets from their "Share Lounge" app. Otherwise, the fee will be really expensive.
It is a Japanese old-style hotel with a co-working space on its 1st floor. I used the drop-in plan of the co-working space and the experience was amazing. The place has this beautiful historic style and the facilities are well maintained and comfortable to use. The neighborhood is also beautiful. Walk alongside Takase river and you'll see nice cafes and a brewery.
It has real work chairs and wide desks. It can be a little noisy since everyone is doing online meetings in the public area (+ unnecessary loud BGM). Also, it closes at 18:00 which is a bit early.
In the middle of the Sanjo-dori. There are plenty of one person seating which is great for work or study. Also, Tullys has relatively better coffee compared to other coffee chains.
Nice work space and library. The drop-in plan is not that expensive (1500 yen a day).There are many foreigners here so the stuffs should be able to speak English.
