Coworking vs cafe hopping - which actually helps you focus?

I've been bouncing between cafes and coworking spaces for about 3 months now. At a coworking spot in Austin last week, I crushed 6 hours of work without touching my phone. But cafes save me $15 a day and I like the background noise. The thing is, at cafes I get distracted by people watching and bad wifi. Has anyone else found one actually beats the other for getting real work done, or is it just a mood thing?

Cafe hopping is just paying for bad wifi and cold coffee while pretending you're being productive. Coworking spaces force you to actually work because you're paying too much to waste time.

Have you actually gotten any solid work done at a coworking space though?
