Metz is a city that surprises you. Between the Saint-Étienne cathedral and its spectacular stained glass, the Centre Pompidou-Metz that anchors the city in modernity, and the imperial quarter with its wide avenues inherited from the German era, the setting is unique. The city is human-scale, well connected by TGV (1h20 from Paris), and its coworking scene is developing at a good pace. Lorraine freelancers, remote workers making the most of Metz's quality of life, students from the Université de Lorraine looking for a quiet corner — Metz has something for everyone.

What's pleasant here is the compactness of the centre. Everything is walkable, the addresses are close to each other, and prices are noticeably softer than in Paris or Lyon. We've toured the neighbourhoods, tested the connections, and spotted the places worth visiting. Here are 10 spots to work in Metz.

Le Poulailler

Avenue de Blida, in the station neighbourhood. Le Poulailler is a coworking space that plays the intimacy and creativity card. Small, warm, well-equipped — Wi-Fi, power outlets, large tables, and even a terrace and unlimited coffee. The atmosphere is that of a small setup where everyone knows each other, far from the giant, impersonal open plans.

Recommended by Now Coworking, Passion Télétravail and Working Life in their guides to Metz coworking spaces. Open every day from 7am to 11pm — the wide opening hours are a real asset, especially at the weekend. Prices are affordable, making it one of the best value-for-money spots in Metz.

Our favourite for intimate coworking with wide hours and gentle prices.

Le Grenier

Rue Chèvremont, in the Sablon neighbourhood. Le Grenier is a human-scale coworking space with 6 workstations — yes, six. It's small, and that's its strength: the atmosphere is intimate, the quiet is guaranteed, and you work as if you were in your own office. Unlimited coffee, a kitchen for lunch on-site, reliable Wi-Fi and power outlets everywhere.

Recommended by Passion Télétravail, Working Life and Le Grenier's own site. Open Monday to Sunday (except Tuesday) from 9am to 12:30pm and from 1:45pm to 5pm. It's a format unlike any other in Metz — perfect if you're looking for absolute quiet in a small cocoon.

The spot for those who want a tiny, quiet space where you work almost alone.

BLIIIDA

Avenue de Blida, right next to Le Poulailler. BLIIIDA is a hybrid community space dedicated to digital art that combines a workspace, an innovation hub, and a social space. The setting is stimulating — you'll rub shoulders with artists, developers, and people carrying innovative projects — and the creative environment gives your working day another dimension. Wi-Fi, power outlets, and a calm but lively atmosphere.

Recommended by Now Coworking and Passion Télétravail. Open Monday to Friday from 9am to 3pm. The hours are short, but the place is one of a kind in Metz. If you work in tech, design, or the creative industries, BLIIIDA's atmosphere is a real bonus.

A creative community space for digital and artistic profiles who want a stimulating setting.

Coworking Office Station

Recommended by Coworking-France, Working Life, Invest in Metz and Passion Télétravail. Open Monday to Thursday from 9am to 12:30pm and 1:30pm to 5pm. Closed on Fridays and weekends. The hours are limited, but the space is reliable and well-equipped for weekday work.

Recommended by Passion Télétravail, Coworking-France, Working Life and Invest in Metz. Open Tuesday to Friday from 8:30am to 12:30pm and 2pm to 5pm. Closed Monday and weekends. The central location is an asset, and the business address services are a plus for entrepreneurs.

Le Square

Rue Pasteur, in the imperial quarter. Le Square is a coworking space offering private offices of 12 to 14 m² to work in intimacy and quiet. The setting is calm, the Wi-Fi is reliable, and the atmosphere is hushed. It's a different format from the classic open plan — here, you have your own space, with a door that closes.

Recommended by Passion Télétravail, Working Life and Coworking-France. Open Tuesday to Thursday from 9am to 6pm. Closed Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The hours are very restricted (3 days a week), but if you need a private office in absolute quiet, this is the address.

The ultra-quiet spot for those who need a closed office with zero distraction.

B'CoWorker

Rue Harelle, 7 minutes from the station. B'CoWorker Metz offers a flexible space with private offices, open plan, and meeting rooms. Access is possible 24/7, which is a real plus. Fast Wi-Fi, power outlets everywhere, large tables, and rates from 4 euros per hour — one of the most competitive prices in the city.

L'Atelier des Cafés

Rue Mazelle, in the centre. L'Atelier des Cafés is a café-coworking that offers comfortable spaces with Wi-Fi and food on-site. The coffee is excellent, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the setting lends itself well to occasional remote work. It's more of a café that welcomes laptops than a coworking space, but the atmosphere is warm and the coffee quality is a real plus.

Open Tuesday to Saturday (from 10am generally, 11:30am on Wednesday), until 6pm (6:30pm Friday and Saturday). Closed Sunday and Monday. It's a daytime spot, ideal for morning and afternoon work sessions with a good coffee.

The café you come to as much for the quality of the beans as for getting work done.

Now coworking Metz
