Where to Work Remotely in Midtown Memphis
“Best remote work coffee shops or free coworking spaces?” is one of the most common questions remote workers ask about their city. In Midtown Memphis, you have real options. The right one depends on what kind of work you’re doing that day.
Here’s a practical guide to working remotely in Midtown, from free to paid.
Free options
Coffee shops. Midtown has plenty, especially around Overton Square, Cooper-Young and Crosstown. Great for email, reading and a change of scenery. Harder for calls, and you’ll feel the pressure to keep buying something.
Crosstown Concourse common areas. A big, busy building with food and seating. Good for a couple of hours of light work. Expect noise.
Public libraries. Quiet and free, with WiFi. Most don’t allow calls in open areas, and hours vary by branch.
Overton Park. On a nice day, an hour of reading or planning outside is hard to beat. Not a place for video calls.
Paid options
Coworking day pass. A seat, business-grade WiFi, coffee, snacks and phone booths for the day. At Tucker Collective, a day pass is $29, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and parking is free.
Hourly meeting rooms. When you need a door and a screen for a call or a client, rooms at Tucker start at $40 an hour. No membership needed.
Monthly coworking. If you’re working remotely most weeks, a hot desk is $129 a month, month-to-month.
Match the place to the work
| Type of day | Best spot |
|---|---|
| Email and reading | Coffee shop or library |
| Two or more video calls | Coworking day pass |
| Client meeting | Hourly meeting room |
| Deep focus on a deadline | Coworking or library |
| Brainstorming | Overton Park, then a whiteboard |
Why Midtown works for remote workers
Midtown sits in the middle of everything. Downtown, the Medical District and East Memphis are all a short drive, so a morning meeting across town doesn’t wreck your day. And when a working day turns into lunch, Overton Square and Cooper-Young are close.
Tucker Collective is on North Tucker Street, just south of Poplar Avenue, minutes from Overton Square, Crosstown, Overton Park and the Memphis Zoo.
