Dallas cowork spaces
Hatchway workspace includes an open space and pods in the background for private working space
Hatchways Workspace is located in Victory Park in Dallas and includes open seating, conference rooms, and pod spaces.  |  Hatchways Workspace
Poolside work is fine and coffee shops are great. However, there’s something about coworking spaces (especially the ones in Dallas) that offer a unique mixture of fun and flexibility. Who doesn’t like working with nice cup of coffee followed by an afternoon beer?

Here are a few coworking spaces we have our eye on in the Big D:

Hatchways Workspace

With a location in the heart of Victory Park — conveniently down the street from the W Hotel and Insomnia Cookies — Hatchways offers a wide range of amenities:
  • Open space seating
  • Conference rooms with writing walls
  • Pod spaces
  • Chef-driven breakfast, lunch, and snack options
  • Full City Rooster Coffee with experienced baristas
Membership cost starts at $25 for a day pass and $100 per month for six days of use.

Industrious HQ

A rising star in coworking, Industrious HQ is doing a Texas two-step over Dallas with an Arts District location northeast of downtown and a southeast location in Dallas Farmers Market. For residents further outside of Dallas, there’s also another location in Plano.

The space offers the following:
  • 24/7 access
  • Meeting rooms
  • Bookable offices on-demand
  • Private, fully-furnished office suites
  • Daily breakfast and craft coffee
Prices can vary from $50 per hour for meeting rooms to $299 per month.

Common Desk

This coworking space has locations in Bishop Arts, downtown, and North Dallas. Common Desk has been around since 2012, so it isn’t new to the coworking world. Being a WeWork company, the coworking space is growing as it provides options in artsy areas like the West End.

The space prides itself on offering:
  • Fast wifi
  • Coworking community events
  • Plenty of coffee
  • Conference room access
Student discounts start at $75 per month and daily access to the open space and amenities is $150 per month.
