The Indian restaurant Banjara occupies this space at the moment, and kudos to them for being able to last at this location, a credit to their delicious food. But this space in the first half of the 1990s was occupied by 7-Eleven, which was eventually abandoned by the American convenience store chain and then the plot of land was taken over by "Big Time Donuts", a doughnut shop, and for a short period time it was a Coffee Cabana donuts. And then interestingly enough, because at the time Coffee Time was a thriving chain, a impersonating business took a similar look and name and opened up as Coffee Team at this location, and was replaced by Coffee Tip. If you look at the back of Banjara there is a sign which faces Christie Pits park, and it has the old Coffee Tip signage. The last remnant of a revolving door of doughnut chains that occupied this location before Banjara took over.
