    In Ipanema there's Aussie Coffee, which I've never been to, but it's highly praised because it has fiber-optic internet and the owner (Australian) always encourages people to go work there.

    Em Ipanema tem o Aussie Coffee, que eu nunca fui, mas é bem elogiado porque tem internet de fibra ótica e o dono (australiano) sempre incentiva que o pessoal vá lá trabalhar.

    We went to Aussie Coffee but unfortunately, because it's very small there and has no outlets near the tables, we had to leave without getting the chance to try the food

    Fomos no Aussie Coffee mas infelizmente lá por ser muito pequeno e não ter tomadas perto das mesas, a gente teve que ir embora sem ter a chance de poder testar a comida

  6. 06CoLAB

    café66 Rua Fernandes GuimarãesPowerWork 100

    CoLAB is a favourite of the remote-working crowd – and one of our top picks in Botafogo. The place is cosy and the people are nice. Just look for the plugs and choose your HQ.

    O CoLAB é um queridinho da galera que trabalha remotamente – e um dos nossos prediletos em Botafogo. O lugar é aconchegante e o pessoal é gente boa. É só procurar as tomadas e escolher o seu QG.
