Why Mr Sister Cafe wins locally
Above-average 4.1★ rating shows the offer resonates with local trade.
Lesson for new entrants: Differentiate through a single hero product (single-origin filter, pastry-led, or health-forward bowls) — generic third-wave coffee will not stand out here.
Rank #3 among cafés within ~800m of Caulfield centre (Google Places cache, June 2026).
