Looking for suggestions for late night free wi-fi offerings near downtown and midtown to park the laptop at a couple nights a week. Prefer any suggestions open after 9pm, but at least those open till 9pm. I'm guessing Cuppies and Joe is one, but need more suggestions.

Thanks. Good suggestion. I'm more interested in a coffee shop or Panera type setup, where you don't feel obligated to buy a meal, more of just a drink of coffee or such.

I'm not sure of their hours, but Elemental Coffee has wifi. Coffee Slingers does as well, but you will have to deal with their self-righteous hipster employees.

What about inner core area fast food shops like Mickie D's, T-bell's, Carl's Jr's and, if any, Burger Kings? Are any of these open late night?

I've only been to I-hop late one time. Nice folk. Reminded me of a larger version of when our old Kettle on Main was 24 hr. No wi-fi back then, but I urban camped many a night during my three years at OU, and quite a few even later, until long after I was out. There was a real benefit to someone else worrying about keeping the coffee going so all I needed to do was enjoy while I worked and tip at shift change when I was in marathon review mode. If I missed someone I would catch them the next time. It was a regular late night to sunrise and beyond haunt for me. Never mattered if I was doing only coffee, or coffee and maybe some fries or if I grazed at the all night buffet on weekends all night. When you're very nice to service peeps and their employers, they are usually nice right back atcha.

I spent many a late night there pretending to study...

Grinning here Tom. I remember the first time I noticed one of my favorite staffers was sporting her five year pin. We joked a bit and then she went and got one of the managers. I don't recall which brother it was but we all had a bit of a blast with my mock rage over no one remembering to present me with my five year pin, even though I had logged more hours in the store than many of the staffers. I never got the pin, but we joked about it off and on afterwards for some time.

Good times! My kids have their favorite places to do the same things now, but to me they seem a little more bland and corporate.
