Many Starbucks locations in Delawarehave become unofficial coworking spaces. If you're planning a half-day of focused work or a quick video call, look for: power outlets at seating, a quiet atmosphere (avoid the morning rush between 7 and 9 AM), stable Wi-Fi, and comfortable seating such as armchairs or longer communal tables.
Larger stores in university towns and business districts typically offer the best remote work environment, since they're designed for longer stays. In Delaware, the cities most likely to feature these larger, laptop-friendly stores include Newark, Wilmington, and Dover.
Before you commit to a long session, glance at the store's operating hours on its city page — closing times vary, and the last 30 minutes before close are the worst time to settle in with a laptop.
