In Bergerac, between the old town and the quays of the Dordogne, remote work has some good options. A third place, a community coworking space, a welcoming cafe or a free media library: here are our spots for setting up your laptop, getting online and making steady progress, depending on your budget and your mood.
A pay-by-the-time third place: Le TAF Café
Le TAF Café, on Rue de la Résistance, is probably the smartest address: you pay for the time you spend (prices on letafcafe.fr), with no booking or subscription, and with wifi, coffee and self-service snacks. A place truly designed for work, right in the centre, Monday to Friday (official website). Perfect when you don't yet know how long you'll stay.
A community coworking space: La Traverse
A short walk from the station, in the former Manufacture des Tabacs, La Traverse offers a community coworking space open Monday to Friday, with no prior booking. Wifi, a friendly, community-run atmosphere: it's the option for a working day in a place with meaning.
A cafe to settle into: Columbus Café & Co
On the cafe side, Columbus Café & Co, on Rue Mounet Sully in the centre, is the best known for working: wifi, power outlets, long opening hours (from 7:30am Monday to Saturday). Ideal for a morning session over a coffee, keeping in mind that it gets busy at peak times.
The free option: the Bergerac media library
Don't want to spend anything? The Bergerac media library, at the Espace Bellegarde, offers free wifi, quiet work areas and even six public computers with a printer, handy if something goes wrong. Watch the opening hours: closed on Monday and Thursday (reserved for groups).
In short
In Bergerac, Le TAF Café and La Traverse cover day-long work, Columbus helps out for a cafe session, and the media library takes care of the free option. To help you choose between a cafe and a dedicated space, see our guide cafe or coworking.
