Having become familiar with cowkorking spaces in Philadelphia like the very awesome Indy Hall, I…read morethink I became too comfortable in what I imagined a space to be. I wanted to work from a space in Boston a few months ago, and gave Workbar's new-ish Cambridge location a try. But whereas Indy Hall is an inspirational, creative space full of amazing people who make you feel at home in their community, Workbar is much less so. In fact from what I can remember, only one person one their staff spoke with me during my entire week there, and almost reluctantly so. It was a huge shock coming form a city where most people in the coworking space try very hard to make others feel included and supported. Quite honestly, Workbar feels less like a coworking space and more like a real, regular working space The downstairs area, where I spent most of my time, tries to be a hip cafe, with long communal tables and music playing. This does not, however, appear to translate into the kinds of transient conversations between strangers you might find in an actual cafe. Meanwhile, the upstairs feels like a cubical farm without any cubicles, with long work tables full of people quietly tapping away and conference rooms lining the outer walls. It actually felt uncomfortable to walk through, like I was invading an actual company's prviate space. It was uninviting and a little unnerving. Maybe spaces like this in Boston are meant for Very Serious Startup Workers funded by Large, Important Venture Funds. If that's the case and that's the environment you're looking for, then by all means, give Workbar a try. But if you're not into the sterile, quietcore worker scene and go to coworking spaces to interact with other people, you might just want to work from a cafe instead.

I rented a large office (actually huge...it could easily fit six people) at Geek Offices for the…read morelast six months. The landlord Michael, mentions that the offices are low key, and they are. It's all cubicles and private offices. There is a nice kitchen with coffee and two fridges. The internet comes from a fiber connection and is 50 Mbit down (fast enough) and 50 Mbit up (much faster than you usually see.) And for those of you who care about latency, the ping is only 2 ms which is super fast. Geek Offices is a bit of a time machine. It's like the old days before super pretty shared offices with tiny tables and tiny boxes of an office. No. Here you get big private cubes with plenty of space. Nice offices with plenty of room. And yeah, you're renting from the guy who owns the building. He's very responsive and flexible. It's his building and he's happy when it serves people's needs. The offices are on the lower level. Some of the offices have high windows, but overall this is not a place with lots of natural light. The cubes and furniture aren't new, but they're in good shape and they get the job done. There are showers and bathrooms right across the hall. You get 24-hour access with a key card, and privates offices lock. And more time machine...there is parking. A lot of parking. It isn't cheap, but hey, where can you get parking just two blocks from Inman Square? There's even visitor parking. Whoever has that? Now if anyone would actually visit you in person, they could go right ahead and park for free. Really, this is a place to work. Get stuff done. Heads down. Just you or a small team. Then get lunch in Inman Square. Sometimes going back to the future works just fine. Oh, one more thing. The rental terms are incredibly flexible. You pay for the month. You can leave with as low as one day's notice. For example, you decide on December 30th that you need to leave. You give notice on the 31st. You can leave the next day. You don't owe anything. I had to have it explained to me twice because I couldn't actually believe it.

The Arlington location is in an old mill directly in downtown Arlington and is a pretty cool set up, offering small offices, shared desks and also private conference rooms, as well as pretty nice common areas, kitchens and rest rooms, all housed in a 2 floor exposed brick wall space with plenty of free parking and close to the center of town. The cool thing about Workbar, they are sanitized and clean and spacious and adhere to Covid rules and are environmentally one of the best places I have seen, plus offer cool amenities and you can visit other locations as long as you have a membership.

Maybe since it was a Friday, it was pretty quiet but there were other people scattered in the various areas working. There are mini rooms you can sign up for to take a call. Some spots are designated as a quiet zone and then others are group friendly. There is a kitchen area where you can store or heat up food. There's unlimited coffee and water...and even beer! We really enjoyed the space and were able to focus and get some crucial work done. Thanks for hosting us, we loved being at Workbar!

I know Workbar is generally a "coworking space" but they were incredible for a room rental!! Workbar was amazing because: Very affordable price! Fantastic space for the meeting Comfortable chairs All you can drink water, tea, and coffee Flexibility of using ezcater.com saved a ton of money compared to venues who make $$$$ off the catering One of our board members has an adult family member he cares for who has developmental issues who needed to be there as well - Workbar had a ton of different places she could sit and do her coloring just outside of, but still very near, our room ... but the BEST part of Workbar was Lauren and Warren, who got us set up, showed me where everything was in the kitchen, answered a bunch of random questions I had, and a million other things. At one point I saw Warren helping the family member I mentioned get some water, patiently showing her how to use the machine and offering the various water options (watermelon, blueberry, still or sparkling, etc. etc.). And if you should happen to forget to add the facilitator to the guest list for the front desk, and realize it moments before everyone arrives, Lauren just might be able to get her on the list in 10 seconds flat so no one even knows she was left off - but, of course, I would never do such a thing so this is purely surmising... ;-) Basically the best experience we could have possibly hoped for. If you have extra food leftover from your meeting, if you put it on the counter in the kitchen, rest assured it will not go to waste ;-) Thank you Warren and Lauren for helping me make this event such a success!!!
