Where do you actually go to work solo for a few hours outside home/office?
Curious to hear how people here handle this. If you're freelancing, building something on the side of your job, or just need to get out of the house to focus or a change in scenery, where do you go?
Cafes are usually either too loud/crowded to actually concentrate; co-working spaces feel very corporate - hot-desking next to sales teams on calls and monthly plans even if you just need it twice a week.
Is there anywhere in Dubai that gets the balance right - good coffee, quiet enough to actually think, doesn't feel like an office, and doesn't require a monthly membership? Or is this just a gap that doesn't really exist here?
Genuinely trying to figure out if this is a "just go to a local coffee shop and deal with it" situation or if people are actually underserved on this.
