Free Wi-Fi

Wherever I've lived in the DC area I've always been able to find a few cafes I like with wireless internet. In college it was nice to get a change of scenery while studying, and now as a Real Estate agent, I can usually work wherever I want as long as I have my cell and laptop. Its also a necessity when your internet, or whosever internet you steal (my situation...shhhh) decides to cut out. My current go-to spots are Sala Thai's sushi bar (try the spicy crunchy tuna rolls) and Mocha Hut, both on 13th and U a few blocks from my house.
