Mangalore is Karnataka's port city and a major commercial and educational hub on the coast. Its large student population, IT growth, and strong café culture make it a natural Chai Bunk market. Coffee-to-chai crossover is a real opportunity here.
Why Mangalore is ready for Chai Bunk: Mangalore has one of Karnataka's densest student populations — NITK Surathkal, Manipal (30 minutes), SDM College, and St. Aloysius all sit within the zone. The city's cosmopolitan, fast-moving population is already café-oriented. Chai Bunk's ₹15 kadak chai offers a strong value alternative to premium café pricing.
