Coffee shops with WiFi in Athens
Working remotely in Athens? The specialty cafés worth a laptop session have a few things in common: a network that holds up on video calls, sockets you don't have to hunt for, and a coffee program good enough to justify a second order. This guide covers what to look for and how the community flags those places on Roasters. Roasters currently counts 121 cafés in Athens, #1 in Greece.
Specialty cafés in Athens are generally welcoming to laptop work in the morning and early afternoon — the rule of thumb is to buy something every two hours, take a smaller table, and leave the long communal bench for groups. A handful of cafés ban laptops at peak times to keep the room flowing; the app surfaces those rules so you don't waste a walk.
