  3. 03Amarillo

    café4 Viru väljakWork 100

    I’d suggest Amarillo in Viru Keskus. It’s more of a restaurant but i’ve never seen it too crowded and they have nice booths, to me it seemed like a calm enough place.

  4. 08Fika

    café60a/1 TelliskiviWi‑FiWork 100

    It isn't huge inside, but there are enough tables and benches that you should be able to find a spot. While I didn't spot any charging points while I was there, they do have Wi-Fi, which is a necessity nowadays.

  5. 09Om.house

    café18/2 RotermanniPowerWork 100

    Not a coffee shop, but there is a separate corner there with good lighting and power sockets, which social media marketers took a liking to long ago.

    Не кофейня, но есть там отдельный уголок с хорошим освещением и розетками, который уже давно облюбовали SMM-щики.

    Butterfly - a very pleasant and cosy terrace, great guys and good food. I use this option myself from time to time.
