Seattle may be an "early to bed, early to rise" kind of city, but that doesn't mean we're without a healthy population of night owls.

Whether you're finishing up some work, cramming for an exam, or taking advantage of a late night creative spurt, sometimes you need a quiet place to work away from home.

Hunker down at one of these late-night studying spots around town, open even after the sun's long gone:

Hellbent Brewing Company | Beer's a brain food, right? It's hard not to get creative after a beer or two. But jokes aside, breweries can offer calm atmospheres + pretty solid bites later into the evening. This one's open until 12 a.m. Friday + Saturday and until 11 p.m. Monday-Thursday.

Armistice Coffee Roosevelt | While most of Armistice's locations close early in the day, its Roosevelt coffee shop stays open until 10 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday.

Cafe on the Ave | For the serious late-night workers, this U District diner has hours on Friday + Saturday that run until 2 a.m. But weeknights can still be a refuge with a closing time of 11 p.m.

Tea Republik | Camp out here until 10 p.m. Sunday-Friday or 11 p.m. on Saturday — plus, there's nothing a warm mug of loose leaf tea can't fix.

A few more pro tips

While the Seattle Public Library's branches don't stay open super late, a good portion of them have hours that extend until 8 p.m. during the week.
Bars can get pretty rowdy on the weekends, but visiting on a weeknight can help you avoid the regular crowds + get you out of the house for the evening. Also, some have rad late night happy hours.
If you don't mind spilling some extra cash, coworking spaces like The Cloud Room offer membership packages that come with 24/7 access to their office.
