WestFeature continues-
Minkies Deli
Chamberlayne Rd, NW10 5RQ (020 8969 2182/ www.minkiesdeli.co.uk).
Housed in a glass-fronted building, this popular Kensal Rise café-cum-deli is an agreeable place to spend a summer’s day with your laptop. A great selection of hot and cold food and pastries adds to its appeal.
-
The Tea & Coffee Plant
180 Portobello Rd, W11 2EB (020 7221 8137/ www.coffee.uk.com).
A welcoming village atmosphere and a real dedication to coffee make this café feel a world away from many of the nearby Notting Hill style-over-substance hangouts.
-
The Troubadour
263-265 Old Brompton Rd, SW5 9JA (020 7370 1434/ www.troubadour.co.uk).
A key player in London’s 1950s boho folk movement, The Troubadour has seen a lot of history. Bob Dylan played his first London gig here; it was also an incubator for Private Eye, as well as the friendship between Ken Russell and Oliver Reed.
-
The Westbourne
101 Westbourne Park Villas, W2 5ED (020 7221 1332/ www.thewestbourne.com).
Ripe with the kind of buzz that’s conducive to getting the creative juices flowing (or at least making you feel as though you should be doing something more important than shopping on eBay), The Westbourne is a surprisingly down-to-earth pub in the heart of Notting Hill.
-
Electric Brasserie
191 Portobello Rd, W11 2ED (020 7908 9696/ www.the-electric.co.uk).
Next to the Electric Cinema (the one with the sofas), and beneath exclusive members’ club Electric House, the Electric Brasserie completes the trio of Notting Hill refinement. Ask your smartly dressed waiter for the code. It gets very busy on the weekend. Read more

Tate modern is a brilliant and inspiring location with free wifi
Does any one know of any nice places more towards South west London eg Kingston, Wimbledon, Morden. thanks
A great pub called the Cumberland Arms at the end of Northend Road near West Kensington / Barons Court / Hammersmith has free wifi too. Fantastic ales and food and also a great cappuccino for £2.50. Not the cheapest pub you'll find but staff is very friendly and won't make a fuss even if you spend all day there with just a coffee. Highly recommend this place.
WalkIn WiFi is also free and you only have to register once.
Go to their website to see pub with WalkIn :)
Kennedys
297 Caledonian Road N1 1EG have WalkIn
anyone know of any nice outside spaces near Camberwell/Peckham that are wifi?
Sarah,
If you sign up to The Cloud in McDog it is free and you can then use The Cloud anywhere where it is used to supply the free WiFi. That includes Wetherspoon (I am posting this from a JDW pub) and some other pubs. The Green Man at Great Portland Street uses The Cloud and is part of a chain so all of theirs are likely to be OK as well.
Phil.
Hello, can anyone tell me, if I sign up to the cloud to use the wifi at mcdonalds or anwhere that has the cloud. Do I need to sign up for a contract and pay them. Not sure.
Barossa in Parsons Green is a great Australian cafe with free wifi
I'm back in the Antipodes for the rest of this year.
On Wellington Waterfront (between Queen's Wharf and Te Papa Museum) there is free wi-fi sponsored by TradeMe, the local equivalent of E-bay. There is talk of extending the free wi-fi across central Wellington by the time of the Rugby World Cup (in September and October).
Seventeen miles from Wellington, the Upper Hutt Public Library has free wi-fi for up to four hours/day, though Wellington Public Library charges for that way of accessing information.
Maybe there is free wifi around Valentines park?
COFFEE CO - Woolwich.
Has brilliant free wi-fi with any spend over £2!!
Kennedys, 297 Caledonian Road, Islington. N1 1EG, now have free WiFi.
WalkIn WiFi - free to register and all it means is you get a newsletter once a month from the pub about special offers and events.
Google Kennedy's Caledonian Road for their website.
