New Braunfels Remote Worker

Liaka Cheesecake and Espresso is a newer edition to New Braunfels. It's a small, San Antonio based chain.

The shop is set up well for remote workers with comfortable seating, good wifi, and outlets everywhere. It was a little chilly in the shop when I was there.

It doesn't look like a great place for remote work, I may review it later, but it has food if you're hungry. I didn't see any specialty drinks so I got a pistachio latte today. It was good, but I love it when they do a creative drink here. Hopefully I'll see ...
