Any thoughts about tagging a greasy spoon cafe (a caff)? It's a
particular British type of food that we need to be able to locate
accurately;)

In taginfo I see
   cuisine=breakfast (282)
   cuisine=british (73)
but both seem too vague to me. There are a handful of
   cuisine=greasy_spoon (4)
so I'll go with that unless there's anything better I've missed.

Also I've just learnt that the term "greasy spoon" is of US origin!

We have them in Canada too. I used amenity=restaurant cuisine=breakfast for the one I go to (http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/80671829), and see I used amenity=cafe cuisine=breakfast for the nearby one I go to less frequently (http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1710998280). I'm not sure which I'd consider more appropriate. I wouldn't consider cuisine=british right. I don't like cuisine=greasy_spoon because it only has four uses.
