pritty simple , you just need to remember not to use the same Ip ranges on both the second and 3rd routers (or 4th/5th etc) or the master net<===>router/gateway gets confused as it trys to sort out the incomeing and outgoing packets from both.
but in this case its even easyer, as he wants only fixed IPs for the office router (so that DHCPd can be turned off)and so only needs to make sure the single cafe router DHCPd doesnt use the same office IP range or it might give out an already fixed IP thats in use by an office PC.
the office LAN side might use 192.168.0.* and so the cafe might use 192.168.1.* or 10.0.0.* for its LAN side DHCPd range , it doesnt matter as long as your master router can route all the traffic to were it needs to go.
so a good plan of your sections is a very good thing to write down so you dont forget and assign duplicate Ip ranges that might one day come back and bite your master router/gateway.

or OC depending on how these cafe cams work (we are assuming IP lan connected video cams at the moment) then you could also probably use that Mtunnel+VLC and stream them on different 224.0.0.1:7777 :7778 etc to any VLC client on the office side.
but iv not found any good IP streaming video app that takes several MultiCast IP video feeds as input and turns them into a single multi stream Picture in Picture video outgoing stream.
although VLC can probably do it, but you need to be a CLI/shell wize to work that VLC shell magic, so if you work it out, tell us the full working line command
