Had to choose between a co-working space and a cafe for a month in Lisbon

I was in Lisbon last month and my budget was tight, so I had to pick one spot to work from. It was either a 150 euro monthly pass at a co-working spot or just buying coffee every day at a local cafe. I went with the cafe because it was cheaper and had better pastries. Honestly, the wifi was fine, but finding a power outlet was a daily hunt. Anyone have a go-to cafe in Lisbon with reliable plugs?

150 euros for a month? That's a crazy price for a desk. You made the right call, the cafe was basically free compared to that. I'd be hunting for outlets too.

Totally feel you on that. 150 euros is nuts for a desk when you can just buy a coffee and camp out for hours. I'd be doing the exact same thing, scoping out every outlet I could find.

Remember my shock at a coworking space charging by the hour.
