Well, Tim Horton's started as a coffee and donuts chain, but many (not
all) of their locations have added items like soup and sandwiches to
their menu. So, I don't think there is a "universal" answer to this
question, it will depend on the location. For the Toronto, ON folks
let me note some examples, inside the Finch Subway station (Yonge &
Finch) there is a mini-Tim Horton's (that is just coffee and donuts),
that I would tag as a coffee shop. On the other hand, there is a large
(well larger) Tim Horton's on Yonge Street, just south of Eglinton
Ave. that does offer a much wider menu (ie: coffee, donuts, soup,
sandwiches, and ice cream), that I would tag as a fast food location.

So, William Skora, how extensive is that Tim Horton's menu?

This is not thinking. Perhaps they need more time to get the show together.

Re: [Talk-ca] [Talk-us] Tag for Tim Horton's

2013-05-30 Thread Peter Dobratz
I've never been to a Tim Hortons, but it looks like it's very similar to
the Dunkin' Donuts we have around here.  I tag this as amenity=cafe as they
are primarily a place that sells coffee-like beverages.

name=Dunkin' Donuts
amenity=cafe
cuisine=doughnut
drive_through=yes

[Talk-ca] Tag for Tim Horton's

2013-05-30 Thread william skora
hi,

I was just curious if there's a consensus on what tag to use for a tim
horton's.

I've found http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:cuisine%3Dcoffee_shop
and http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canadian_tagging_guidelines
which both mentioned variations.

For what it's worth, this location was a single building and had a
drive-thru as well.

regards,
will.

While it tries to be more like an upscale fast-food place, it's core
concept and the way people interact with it is definitely cafe.
