Boston Area Work and Study Directory: Great Places With Free Internet Access

Finding the perfect place to study, work or simply browse the latest news headlines can be tricky for a Boston city dweller. There's so much to consider: atmosphere, food and drink selection and price, type of establishment, level of friendliness in employees, length of stay that is (sometimes silently) permitted and most importantly cost of wifi Internet service. So I have attempted to ease the decision making process for you by outlining the benefits of various Boston area cafes, bookstores and other locations that are conducive to work or study. A good guide for students and self employed professionals. And while I feel there are a few cafes and bookstores that are more enjoyable than others to be productive in, I have decided to limit my selection here to places that offer free wifi Internet only. So here, listed in alphabetical order, a little so-called directory of places to work or study that have access to free wifi Internet.

Armani Cafe (617) 437-0909
214 Newbury Street
Boston, MA 02116
Secondary Phone Number: (617) 437-1962

The Armani Cafe fits in well at the heart of Boston's trendiest strip of posh shopping and restaurants, Newbury Street. The Italian Cafe is two floors and wireless internet is available for free and works great if you can get over the noise of the crowd that tends to collect there. The swanky cafe is quite the scene for certain groups in the Boston area and many visit to simply make an appearance. The Armani cafe can be spotted from a block away by the hoard of people outside on their cell phones. I suggest that if you really wish to venture here to use free wifi Internet, you take a stroll by sometime first to check it out. It's the type of place where a silent dress code is expected and you don't want to be the jerk that strolls in there with an over sized sweatshirt and Birkenstock. To get there, take the Green Line Train to the Arlington T Stop and head down Newbury Street toward Mass. Ave.

Au Bon Pain
209 Cambridge Street
Boston, MA 02114
617-723-1278

If you live in the Boston area you know that the Au Bon Pain bakery chain has locations everywhere. Many of them may indeed be near enough to apartments and businesses to steal someone else's wifi Internet for awhile, but the connection may be spotty and unreliable. If you have any occasion to be near Massachusetts General Hospital (Mass General),
