> I have not found non-shops tagged as shop=ice_cream, have you? The example photo on the shop=ice_cream wiki page shows an "ice cream parlour", which I would not call a shop.
Previously it was claimed that a shop has to be in a building rather than in a booth, stand or van. However, I don't believe this is true globally: shop=farm can be used for booths or stands set up next to the road to sell farm produce in the USA, and previously it was suggested that I could use either shop=fruit or shop=green_grocer for stands that sell fruit in Indonesia. Also, there's the tag shop=kiosk - a kiosk is closer to a booth or stand than to a building. - Joseph Eisenberg On 11/11/19, Martin Koppenhoefer <dieterdre...@gmail.com> wrote: > Am Mo., 11.
