As suggested above. Here it is in pretty pictures and some quick notes (I've populated the diagram with some IP addresses for illustrative purposes):

Reserve an address on your office LAN for the WAN interface on your cafe router

Plug the WAN interface of your cafe router into the office LAN (CAT5)

Configure your cafe router LAN with a different subnet or network block to your office LAN

Use the firewall rules on your cafe router to lock access down as you see fit (ie no SMB, NETBIOS or the usual suspects).
