I love working from coffee shops occasionally, and find that I'm pretty productive.

As long as there isn't someone talking loudly about their personal problems. Or talking loudly about politics.

noise: this is why sealed rubber/noise cancelling headphones were invented. Only needed occasionally, but when they are, they're a lifesaver.

(My personal favourite for these is on a crowded tube ride after a long day - they allow me to zone out and stay relaxed!).
