Co-working spaces provide much more than a place to get in a full day of work outside your home or local coffee shop. This is especially true in San Francisco, a vibrant city characterized by numerous unique neighborhoods, an abundance of dining options and many easily accessible transportation hubs. Several sites are located near major roads and freeways, providing easy accessibility by car.

Many of these co-working spaces can be found in the heart of the city and have just as much to offer on the inside as they do on the outside. Let's take a look at some of the best options.

Covo San Francisco is located on Mission Street in San Francisco's SOMA neighborhood. Several innovative companies can be found nearby, including Zendesk and Slack.

This 5.4-acre elevated park lets you walk four stories above the city streets for some fantastic views. If you're driving to it, the space is just off I-80, making it especially convenient for commuters and meetings.

To take advantage of public transportation, SF Caltrain Station is just a few blocks away.

In addition to the spacious, two-story, 6,000-square-foot gallery, The Laundry also offers dedicated space for workshops and meetings.

The Vault

San Francisco's The Vault coworking space is just as intriguing as its historic Jackson Square location. In fact, you don't need to have a sweet tooth to appreciate the fact that The Vault is housed in the original Ghirardelli Chocolate factory built in 1854. While some historic gems from the square's past remain, including the stunning Gold Rush-era architecture, the area is enjoying a boom in innovation and startup expansion. Unique amenities include the Vintage Library and the historic Speakeasy Lobby with an upscale bar.

The neighborhood is renowned for its food and dining options, and The Vault provides artisan cold brew and beer on tap, as well as catered "lunch and learn" sessions and kitchens stocked with snacks, tea and coffee. When break time rolls around, you can take advantage of the exercise room, catch some z's in the cozy nap corner or enjoy some sunshine on the outdoor patios. The Vault is close to Bart, Muni and numerous parking lots, making it ideally situated for commuting and meetings.

The Hivery

The Hivery SF is situated at the Fort Mason Center in San Francisco, just steps away from the city's Maritime National Historic Park on one side and the popular Marina Green waterfront park with views of Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge on the other. While many of the city's most popular coworking spaces can be found closer to the city center, the maritime setting gives this option a more peaceful vibe — exactly as intended.

Even though the Hivery isn't in the heart of San Francisco's busiest streets and neighborhoods, you can still find plenty of food and dining options nearby, not to mention an impressive amount of green space for those break-time strolls. This coworking space is big on collaboration and offers numerous workshops throughout the year. The space itself is housed inside a chic art gallery environment to help keep the creative juices flowing.
