Whether you are going to meet friends for lunch and decide to Instagram your food, you work from home and need a change of scenery or you're out for coffee and need to send an email, I think we can all agree that we rely on the Internet both at home and while we are out and about.

Knowing what cafes have free Wi-Fi (which should be most, let's be honest) is definitely an influencing factor these days…along with the standard of course; great service, great food, great coffee, great atmosphere.

Especially with more and more people having the flexibility to work from anywhere, knowing the best Wi-Fi hotspots is a must! Although some of Newcastle’s main streets such as the Hunter Street Mall and Beaumont Street offer free Wi-Fi, it’s all about sitting in and enjoying a freshly made coffee while you work …or Instagram!
