When I was freelancing in 2017-2018, I had my list of coffee shops with 
killer coffee, those that had fast wifi, and those that made a point of not 
offering wifi at all.

A couple had killer wifi and great coffee. One had the best coffee and so-so 
wifi. One had no wifi and decent coffee.

I'd go to coffee shop number 1 to work, coffee shop number 2 when I wanted 
to treat myself and still get some work done, and number 3 when I wanted to 
read a book or do creative work.

I miss them all, now. Working from home does have its advantages but 
creative inspiration isn't one of them.

There was one more category - coffee shops with killer music playlists 
that'd make me put my earbuds away.

I hope that culture makes a comeback; I think I'll be packing lysol wipes 
and wiping down my table when I sit down.
