The theme=bicycle tag looks good although I prefer the idea of extending the cafe tag. There is at present a cafe:style tag with only 5 uses in Taginfo. A better choice? I don't know.

FYI: Taginfo also reports that theme is in wide use. Most of those tags, however, are found in India and look to be the result of a mass data import that was done badly. For example, amenity=fuel nodes are tagged with theme=FACILITY and various types of clinics with theme=HEALTH. People are doing their own thing again.

Of course they are. I like the New Zealand LINZ imports - they usually use a 
preface of LINZ: to the data they import that has no OSM equivalent.
If such a policy were adopted by the import people things would be easier to 
see.

I like the theme thing precisely because it can be applied to things other than 
just cafes.

            Any thoughts?


        the theme=bicycle looks ok. Or style.
          cafe=bicycle makes less sense to me. Someone might come up
        with a cafe typology in the future, and bicycle will be more a
        theme than a type for me.

    Theme. Not only cafes but also restaurants, theatres ..these can
    all have themes.
