For sure, coffee shops are tempting, as is meeting a pal for lunch and adding on an extra few hours in the restaurant just to catch up on emails, and it\u2019s a perfect option for some, but nowadays it\u2019s more than just wanting a good wifi connection and a strong coffee. Freelancers want space, a proper desk, and the perks that you get from working for someone else, all whilst working for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, with the rise of the self employed life, there are plenty of places to cowork in, that not only suit your work pattern, but also provide that office culture you secretly don\u2019t-wish-to-admit-but miss. Coworking spaces are great for sharing ideas and meeting new people, with even the added option to join some fitness classes (or enjoy the free beer!). So we\u2019ve rounded up our favourite coworking spots that we think are the perfect place to mingle, ahem, we mean work.<\/p>\n<h2>Work.Life<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1169\" src=\"\/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/worklife.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Coworking Spaces in London\" width=\"1400\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"\/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/worklife.jpg 1400w, \/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/worklife-300x161.jpg 300w, \/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/worklife-768x411.jpg 768w, \/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/worklife-1024x549.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/work.life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Work.Life<\/a> believe that work shouldn&#8217;t feel like work, and that&#8217;s one of the many reasons we love them.

Work.Life are located in some pretty cool areas too such as Bermondsey, Camden and London Fields, so eating and drinking is totally a must, once you&#8217;ve tackled that to-do list.<\/p>\n<h2>Huckletree<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1082\" src=\"\/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/huckletree.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Coworking Spaces In London\" width=\"960\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"\/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/huckletree.jpg 960w, \/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/huckletree-300x180.jpg 300w, \/flatmate-HQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/huckletree-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Think cool, bold and full of colour &#8211; this is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huckletree.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Huckletree<\/a>.
