If it was after 2AM, I used to read in the coffee shop at the Gold Coast. They'd ask me if I wanted smoking or non-smoking and I'd respond that I wanted quiet so that I could read. There's a room towards the rear with a bunch of booths that they use when they're busy, but during slow periods it's only used for overflow of breaking employees. If you're polite and they like you, they'll let you sit there.

The thing is...service will be slow. Order everything you could possibly want in one shot. Tip handsomely.

Haven't been there in a few years, so things may have changed.

About the only thing that has changed is they no longer allow smoking.
