It's rarely a good idea to jam tags together into a single key like
that, most applications have enough trouble with the complexities of
single key/value pairs...

It would be better to tag the primary function of a business, and add
modifiers...

Imho the main function of a McDonalds is to turn over patrons as
quickly as possible to sell as much food as possible, where as most
restaurants would have longer average occupation times...

so....

amenity=fast_food
cafe=yes/no
seating/resturant=yes/no
drive_through=yes/no

etc
