Just for info,there have been various attempts to capture this sort of thing in the past for riders; after all not all cafes are very welcoming to muddy MTBers or lycra-clad roadies, or may lack anywhere to leave bikes.  The current most up-to-date site is https://cafes.cyclingmaps.net/ and at least uses OSM as a base map.  This is manually updated by the admins of a facebook group.  So there's clearly a desire for the information to be captured.

Capturing information about whether you can get a coffee and a cake at a pub is also useful whether on wheels or not. I can think of a town where all the cafes are independent and shut by 4, and insider knowledge of the pubs is the only way to know what options remain.

Hello.

Near me, a new mapper has created a cafe (both a node and a non-existent building) next to a pub. I think this is because the pub is friendly to cyclists (has a "cyclist pit stop" sign and sells food and drink popular with cyclists). There are other nearby pubs that have signs welcoming cyclists in particular. Since not all pubs and cafes appreciates cyclists, is there a tag to indicate cyclist friendliness? Similarly, is there one for places that welcome walkers? I tried searching the wiki but didn't find anything.
