How to connect a headless Raspberry Pi at coffee shops?
I want to develop my Pi project at various coffee shops around town. Given a laptop and headless Pi, how can I get networking setup? I'm assuming I need to connect the Pi to the coffee shop network, but how do I do that without a monitor connected to the Pi?
I have a couple of ideas, including: - modifying a noobs image on the spot on the laptop (but I'm not sure what will happen when the network asks the Pi to "accept" their terms and conditions) - use Bluetooth to connect to the Pi and set up the network settings through that
How have others solved this? Any ideas are most appreciated!

Raspberry Pi Zero USB/Ethernet Gadget Tutorial
Raspberry Pi Zero USB/Ethernet Gadget Tutorial
A single microUSB to USB adapter or cable is all you need to get local networking, power, and internet access to your Raspberry Pi Zero. In a few easy steps you can set up the Pi as a USB/ethernet device and your computer will recognize it just like plug and play printers, scanners, and other devices. Internet access is shared to the Pi from your computer. SSHing and remote desktop access works too. Follow along in the video and I'll show you how to set it up!

How to Setup Raspberry Pi Zero W for Headless
How to Setup Raspberry Pi Zero W for Headless
The following instructions will work anytime, you don't necessarily have to follow them for the first boot - this is just a very convenient way to get your Raspberry Pi onto a network without using any plug-in peripherals like a keyboard, mouse or monitor.
What is "headless," anyway?
A computer setup without a monitor is said to be running headless. You might want to do this if you're installing your Pi into some project, or want to keep power-usage and cost minimal. This kind of setup is what the Pi Zero W was built for. The idea is that you can still access your Pi's terminal interface over your network using a protocol called SSH.
