Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources between 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Wifi is the only work-friendly fact we could verify, and for most places here it comes from a listing, not from a policy the venue wrote. This page has four places: two cafes and two libraries. The libraries are not cafes, and we say so rather than pad the list.
Two are in Mulgrave: The Last Piece at Waverley Park and Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library. Cafelito is on the Monash Clayton campus and Wheelers Hill Library is in Wheelers Hill, so this is Mulgrave and around. The sources we checked state no laptop policy for either cafe, so ask before you set up.

The Last Piece (Last Piece Eatery) — 7/2 Stadium Circuit, Waverley Park, Mulgrave VIC 3170
The Last Piece is at 7/2 Stadium Circuit, Waverley Park, Mulgrave. AGFG tags it “Free Wifi”, which is AGFG’s facility label, not the venue’s own claim. Its site lists Monday and Tuesday from 7.30am to 3pm, Wednesday to Friday from 7.30am to “LATE”, and Saturday and Sunday from 8:00am to “LATE”. “LATE” has no clock time on the site, so we state no closing time. The site also says “From all day breakfast, to seated functions, grab and go lunch, to tap beer, we are the ideal local for everything you need!.” and prints “HAPPY HOUR - From 3pm to 7pm”. The only prices we read are on the dessert page of its menu PDF, printed as bare numbers, which we have read as dollars.
On the menu (copied from lastpiece.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- TRADITIONAL TIRAMISU: $15
- TRIO GELATO: $15
- BOMBA PIZZA DONUT: $15
- STICKY DATE PUDDING: $15
Laptop policy: We read none on its site; the only work-related fact is AGFG’s “Free Wifi” label.
Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library — 36-42 Mackie Road (Wellington Reserve Community Centre), Mulgrave VIC 3170
Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library is at 36-42 Mackie Road, in the Wellington Reserve Community Centre. Monash Public Library Service’s branch page lists its facilities as “* WiFi * Toilets * Information services * Internet Access * Parking”, and the council’s page says the centre “is home to the Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library.” The branch page notes there are no photocopying facilities. Its hours, as listed: Sunday closed, Monday and Tuesday 10:00 AM to 05:00 PM, Wednesday 01:00 PM to 07:00 PM, Thursday 10:00 AM to 05:00 PM, Friday 10:00 AM to 02:30 PM and Saturday 09:30 AM to 12:00 PM. We read no price on the page.
Hours note: Wednesday does not open until 01:00 PM and Friday closes at 02:30 PM, so check the branch page before you go.
Cafelito (New Horizons Building) — G26/20 Research Way (New Horizons Building, Monash University), Clayton VIC 3168
Cafelito is on the ground floor of the New Horizons Building at 20 Research Way, on the Monash Clayton campus, per Monash’s vendor page. That page lists semester hours of Monday to Friday, 7am to 4pm, and Saturday and Sunday closed. We read no wifi statement on the cafe’s own site, so this page makes no wifi claim for it. The cafe’s site lists “Cafelito’s big brekkie - $22.95”, a “vegetarian big brekkie - $22.95” and a “Brekfast Bruschetta (v) - $14.95”.
On the menu (copied from cafelitocatering.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Cafelito’s big brekkie: $22.95
- vegetarian big brekkie: $22.95
- Brekfast Bruschetta (v): $14.95
Best for: Weekday daytime only, going by the semester hours Monash lists.
Wheelers Hill Library (Monash Public Library Service) — 860 Ferntree Gully Road, Wheelers Hill VIC 3150
Wheelers Hill Library is at 860 Ferntree Gully Road. The library’s page lists “* Children’s collection * WiFi * Disabled amenities and access * Toilets” and says “There is an onsite cafe with meals, snacks and drinks”. Its hours, as listed on that page: Monday to Friday 09:30 AM to 08:00 PM, Saturday 09:30 AM to 04:00 PM, Sunday closed. OpenStreetMap’s hours tag differs, so we used the library’s own page. We read no price, and the page does not say entry is free.
Best for: Weekday evenings, going by the listed close of 08:00 PM Monday to Friday.
Quick answers
Which places near Mulgrave list wifi?
AGFG tags The Last Piece with “Free Wifi”. The Monash Public Library Service lists WiFi for both Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library and Wheelers Hill Library. We read no wifi statement on Cafelito’s own site, so we make no claim for it.
Are there libraries near Mulgrave you can work from?
Two are on this page. Mulgrave Neighbourhood Library is on Mackie Road in Mulgrave, and Wheelers Hill Library is in Wheelers Hill. Check each branch page for current hours before you go.
Which place stays open latest on weekdays?
Wheelers Hill Library lists a Monday to Friday close of 08:00 PM. The Last Piece’s site prints “LATE” for Wednesday to Friday with no clock time, so we cannot compare it.
Do these cafes state a laptop policy?
The sources we checked state none for The Last Piece or Cafelito. Ask the venue before you set up, and treat the AGFG “Free Wifi” label as a listing, not a promise.
How we checked
We checked every place on this page against at least two independent sources between 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026: the places’ own websites, the Australian Good Food Guide, council pages, OpenStreetMap and monash.edu. Every price is copied exactly as printed on the page linked under Sources, on 3 October 2026. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go. The photos are illustrative, from Unsplash: they show the kind of food or place, not the places on this page.
