We have coffee shops - they also sell tea and food. Functionally, they are cafes, as OSM tags define that term. As these things have been described by later posts, they're closer to fast food places than cafes, but for drinks rather than food. Whatever main tag we settle on, I think beverages is better than bubble_tea since the proposal already included drink:bubble_tea=yes. Then we can deal with a shop that has no seats and sells only hot coffee to take away. Or iced tea. Or fresh juices made from whole fruit on the spot. Or whatever. -- Paul
