Share Lounge at Tsutaya Books
In 2 of the Taipei Tsutaya Books, you can find the Share Lounge concept which is like a shared office space concept with hourly rates and free snacks and drinks. You can read books, use your laptop/phone, or have a meeting with clients /friends. What's more, if you go earlier in the morning, they even have a half price promotion for the first hour.
The snack selections vary among the outlets, but generally, there will be some bread selections (with toaster oven to toast your bread), nuts, popcorns, crackers, biscuits, chocolate, instant soup. There are also coffee machines (Illy and Louisa Coffee), and various tea and some juices selections. The lounge is generally quite quiet and comfortable. It's a great way to sit back and relax with some books, snacks and drinks, and I will definitely be going back there again if I were to travel to Taiwan again.
