This Astoria charmer boasts sleek retro interiors — a red-tiled houndstooth pattern on the floor gets Instagramm’ed often — and a comfortable backyard. Turquoise cushions line the bench along one exterior wall, and the wooden planters and wood slatted chairs and tables soften the remote work day. Pair a For Five coffee beverage with poached eggs on koulouri or chocolate-stuffed sugar cookies. For those who want an extra buzz on top of the caffeine, there’s a cocktail bar with the the inevitable espresso martini

Okay, so it’s not a coffee shop, but sometimes the day calls for both a cup of coffee and an afternoon slice of pizza to get through work.

The market has a covered outdoor seating area available with Wi-Fi access.

Baba Cool makes for peak coffee shop working: There are plenty of seats in the dining room — which has mirrors for ceilings, by the way — and a spacious backyard that’s outfitted with rain coverings and a disco ball.

Reward yourself with a happy hour that runs from 5 to 7 p.m. daily, offering $2 off beers and oysters.

Colombian coffee purveyor Devoción is often cited as brewing one of the best cups of coffee in the city.
