We actually worked out of our public library every day as a small (4 person) company, and it was wonderful - they're usually in great locations downtown near good restaurants, they have really nice peaceful quiet atmospheres, and when you need a break, you can wander through the stacks and see what catches your eye for after-hours reading. When you need to take a call or have a non-compete discussion, you can just step outside. I highly recommend it.
