Maybe you have the perfect home-office setup, but sometimes you just want a change of scenery. We feel you.

Here are a few of our favorite remote-work spots.

Jackdaw Coffee & Bourbon Bar, 120 S. Floyd St.
Located inside the Cambria Hotel downtown, this quiet coffee shop/bar starts serving breakfast + classic and seasonal drinks at 7 a.m. Try the Jackdaw — a double shot of espresso with Irish cream steamed milk — to get you revved up in the morning.

🥯 Payne Street Bakehouse, 225 S. Spring St.
This Irish Hill spot offers lots natural light and just the right amount of ambient noise to help you stay focused. Plus, it boasts 14 kinds of freshly made bagels to keep you fueled throughout the workday.

📚Northeast Regional Library, 15 Bellevoir Cir.
Don’t worry about keeping quiet here. There are multiple rooms available for Zoom calls and other meetings + a Quills Coffee location to satisfy your caffeine fix.
