The L post for #26Tech A-Z Challenge profiles a few Cafe type ambient sounds should you work well with background noises like these.
Cafe Sound Apps
The following apps provide cafe or coffee shop sounds. Some writers and creatives find they are more productive writing in environments with ambient background noises. Others may prefer the sound of rain or static white noise.
For a full list of ambient noise apps and websites which provide all kinds of sounds, please see the listly list here: Distraction Free Tools – Ambient Sounds and Noise Reduction Apps
Coffitivity (Webapp and iOS, Mac and Android)
Coffitivity has been mentioned a couple of times on this blog. It began as a webapp which streamed a cafe sound. Since Coffitivity took off, they have added some different cafe recordings to the webservice – which you can stream and listen to freely.
There are also mobile apps for iOS and Android, and a Mac OS desktop app.

Coffee Shop Ambiances (iOS App)
This cheap but unknown app comes with lots of recordings of cafes from different countries, and you can combine these to create compositions and playlists of sounds.
The app also has a sleep and wakeup timer and can play your device music also.

Soundrown is a webapp which provides several free streaming sounds to listen to. The first is a coffee shop.
