Of course - I sometimes update opening hours for them and OSM, assuming
that's the case. And treating OSM as a base on which other information
can be layered does seem to be the whole point. While there seems to be
a significant overlap between OSM editors and those who enjoy
self-propelled excursions.
OTOH if OSM was to try to do something to capture this sort of detail,
it should be extensible. I'm in two minds about whether it would be a
good idea as it strays towards guide book territory.
Opening hours are something I think we should capture, at least if we
could ever get an honest answer from the establishment, but perhaps a
distraction from this discussion

Thinking more broadly it seems like a "welcomes" tag would be
useful, with values like walkers, dogs, cyclists, and horse-riders
(I can think of a couple of Cotswolds pubs with hitching posts).
Going further I wonder if we could allow hours for those same
users - I'm thinking of places that have 24 hour drive-through
(and advertise 24 hour opening) but won't serve anyone without 4
wheels and an engine after a certain time. Though perhaps that's a
separate issue ąs walk-in customers aren't the same as walkers.

Hi Jon,

I don't know of any (consensus on) tagging with respect to
places that are friendly to walkers but there's a campaign
site, Walkers Are Welcome (https://walkersarewelcome.org.uk),
that looks like a good resource for checking places that might
have been tagged in a meaningful way. Their
accreditation seems to apply to a whole village or town. I
don't think it would be safe to use that fact to armchair map,
however, but you could scout for locations that have signage
or a window sticker while doing a ground survey in a place
mentioned on their website. I know of a café that's part of
this scheme and boasts a "10% Rambler's discount" for a full
English breakfast. No idea how to tag that though.

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.
