This sounds like a kind of library utopia I'd readily pay for. But, from my experience in the UK, our libraries have evolved from a quiet reading/reference resource to 'everything for everybody' places that are the exact opposite of what you describe.
As someone who used to spend a lot of time working from a coffee house when the library was much closer:
Libraries have no food.
The need to be quiet sometimes makes me uncomfortable (I really go to theses places for the background noise anyway)
I recently discovered the local library, and it's probably my favorite spot in the city. It's brand new, and internet speeds hit 200mbps. I shelved my unused kindle and picked up reading real books -- got nearly 50 books in the last 2 years.
There are lots of perks to having a free membership too -- I get free online access to dozens of magazines, the NYTimes, ridiculously cheap book sales ($5 per bag full). Plus, there are the occasional exhibits with 500K+ year old human remains, artists sharing their work, and live local orchestras playing inside.
The best news I've heard all month is the city allocated another $400K/year to increase its hours/week by ~14.
