London was recently heralded as the fifth most expensive coworking city with average desk rents of £700 per month, according to a report by the Instant Group. But you don’t need to fork out a small fortune to work in some pretty cool spaces.

Office space marketplace Hubble has identified the cheapest coworking desk costs at Tube stops across the city.

Maximize Flexible Space Revenue

While major players, including The Office Group and WeWork, still offer best value in central London locations like Green Park and Holborn, independent operators are also providing competitive rates and offering the city’s workers something a little bit different. For example, there’s this entrepreneurial high street store on swanky Westbourne Grove. A members’ club in Mayfair offers desks from £200 per month and the famous nightclub, Ministry of Sound, can give you a seat for £325 per month.

If you want creative and a cost-effective space to work in the UK’s capital, here are 10 spaces you need to try:
