Certain allergies or dietary restrictions preclude one from consuming a meal prepared by conventional amenities, or if the find the drink offering insufficient (for example you can rarely find milk or vegetable juice at most places). Or you would like to bring some snacks from home to a pub that only offers drinks (salty snacks may build your thirst and make you buy more drinks).
Such a customer may still want to enjoy the company of their friends and perhaps want to play a game together (see: gaming cafe). This can happen when 1-2 such users accompany 4 others who do want to purchase meal on site. It does incur costs for the restaurant if not all patrons pay, so it can also be tagged whether it is allowed, and if it is, whether it is expected or mandated to pay an entry fee or to purchase something else instead on the menu as compensation (drinks, dessert). Such a restaurant may provide a microwave oven for reheating - this is common for fast food restaurants (canteens) catering to office workers who usually bring their own food to work. In certain cases, government regulations may mandate signing a waiver by such attendee that any and all ill effects from consuming the meal shall be the responsibility of the person. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
