Always check wiki for the particular case. E.g. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dbooks#Cafes_inside_bookshops
I'm dealing with some weird ones, like laundromat cafés and stationery shop cafés. But at least it looks like I can add an
amenitytag to most of these. It's just the bar/café that I'm really struggling with.Make two POIs. Done.
No, they are really fused together. The idea is that you drink something while waiting for your laundry to be done.
Hmm, I can't find any guidance for my particular use case.
(I just wanted to make that joke, don't actually spend effort on this :P)
There's a whole section on the Canadian page in the OSM wiki for how to map Tim Horton's depending on if they're inside of other places or not, haha.
Hahaha I love that.
