Neighbourhood specialty coffee + pastry counter
Only 2 cafés surfaced near the centre with strong demand signals — room for a quality daily ritual spot.
Differentiate: Lead with a single-origin espresso program and same-day baked goods; avoid competing on full brunch menus on day one.

Engine shows high demand with manageable rent and competition — a lean format can test the trade before a full fit-out.
Differentiate: Open 6–10am only with batch brew and pastry partnerships to keep labour costs low.
