10 Best Places To Grab A Coffee And Work In Amsterdam With Free Wi-Fi

Many of us choose to work remotely these days with ties to the physical office not as important as they once were. You might need to check your emails between meetings, tie up a few loose ends online at the end of a day or simple want a change of scenery but finding the perfect spot for a bit of surfing can be tricky. We’ve been looking for a good free Amsterdam Wi-Fi list for some time and after not finding any we decided to research it a little more and create our own.
