Coworking Space: Rakwe in Lyon

Coffee shop where everyone is quietly co-working. I loved that you just came in, ordered coffee, and got to work. Great atmosphere. Also lovely host.

Rakwe is a brilliant idea for a co-working space - a dedicated coffee shop specifically for nomad workers. It's totally free to work here - just pay for your coffee and snacks :) You always meet an amazing crowd here from all over the world and the owner Elias is such a genuine friendly guy who loves to meet people and build a sense of community. The inside is really well set up with lots and lots of seating spaces, good lighting, and great wifi. You can stay there the whole day without any pressure. I was in Lyon for a month and I'm so glad I found this place! The location is right in the 1st arrondissement next to the old town, and there are lots of great cafes within short walking distance.
