What the data says
The Bean Project is one of 960 cafés we hold in Melbourne, and one of 3,380 venues in the town overall. It sits about 410 metres north-west of where Melbourne's venues cluster most densely, so it is on the edge of the main run.
Coffee shop is well represented in Melbourne: 184 other venues are recorded as serving it, so there is real choice.
There are 1,201 other venues within a kilometre — against a Melbourne average of 616, so this is a busier-than-typical pocket for the town. The three closest are Oxford Scholar Hotel (18 m), J&G Taiwanese Fried Chicken (45 m) and Little Bang Espresso (53 m).
Open monday to Friday 7.30am to 5pm. No hours are recorded for Saturday and Sunday. That is our reading of Mo-Fr 07:30-17:00, the opening-hours string recorded against it — hours change and the source is community-maintained, so treat it as a strong hint rather than a guarantee. Only 24% of venues in Melbourne publish hours at all, so this one is better documented than most of the town.
Measured on recorded detail, The Bean Project carries more attributes than 98% of the other venues mapped in Melbourne. step-free access, outdoor seating, takeaway and vegetarian options are all noted against it, which is unusually complete for a New Zealand listing.
Within a short walk — call it 800 metres — you would pass 370 restaurants, 228 cafés, 129 takeaways and 66 bars. There are also 49 places to stay in the same radius, so this is walkable from a bed rather than a drive.
The closest places to stay are Brady Hotels (99 m), Ibis Hotel Melbourne (210 m) and Elizabeth Hostel (234 m).
Not recorded for The Bean Project: a phone number, a website and gluten-free options — gaps in the open data rather than statements about the venue (why we say so).
