The short answer
Before 7:00 there are 9 places to get coffee across Kanda, and every one of them is a chain. At 7:00 exactly, 5 independent shops open at once.
Out of 45 cafés measured within walking distance of Kanda, 33 are open by 8:00. The rest of the neighbourhood does not start until 11:00. If you are on an early train, the field is much smaller than the map suggests.
Narrowing it down to one
This is what you do in your head anyway — early, coffee first, well rated. Each condition cuts the list, and the count comes from the 45 shops measured on 2026-10-01, not from an opinion.
