For me, having people around is quite distracting, so I wouldn't do the coffee-shop, nor the library unless it is severely underused. If I couldn't write at home I'd consider a car parked somewhere rural and invest in a thing or two with good batteries.
Time of day makes a large difference for many people. I'm most productive late when I'm somewhat tired, others like to write before breakfast. If the difference is similarly significant for you, your personal optimum should be easy to find.
I'm not sure about 'severely', but I'm pretty sure it still has worktables (if not the desks with vision-blocking walls it used to, a piece of furniture I'm now realizing I don't know a name for) along the edges with minimal traffic.
In my previous coffee-shop writing endeavours, I managed to reduce said distractions by going in the evenings when there were few people, plus throwing something instrumental on some earbuds.
A thought I hadn't considered, and should. Which is exactly the sort of thing I started this thread to evoke. :)
