Where are your favorite C-U working spots with Wi-Fi?

Here at Smile Politely, we all work remotely. Most of the time it’s from home, but we all enjoy sitting somewhere in Champaign-Urbana to get our work done; Wi-Fi is a requirement, and treats in the form of beverages or snackies are added bonuses. 

There are the obvious ones: all of the Espresso Royale locations, Cafe Kopi, Harvest Market, Pekara, Avionics, Cafeteria and Company. The libraries have Wi-Fi, but the snack factor is limited. Art Mart has high quality treats, but less reliable Wi-Fi (and they ask you to keep the cafe a laptop-free zone for lunch hours).

But tell us in the comments on our socials, or via email at [email protected]: Where do you go to get some work done?
