A quick query on IRC and Andy (SomeoneElse) also maps pubs this way
True, but not with a zealous committment to it "absolutely being the best way". I'm open to persuasion.
Part of the reason might be that I'm probably more likely to sit in the beer garden than most people (as evidenced by the mapping trip to Consall Forge where my suggestion that we sit outside was met with disbelieving "are you mad?" looks from all around). Another is that I've tended to map the entire site of other businesses - see for example http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/241928696 , which is a large site surrounded by a fence - it's very clear what's part of the car dealership and what is not.
To take a deliberately problematic example http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/374419244 - how would you map them if you weren't going to map the whole area as the pub? How would you say that http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/374419080 and http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/374419082 belong to the pub? That's "deliberately problematic" because clearly a section of road there isn't owned by the pub.
Maybe if people have got better suggestions they could show how they'd do it by editing at http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/51.87134/-3.24177 (on the dev server, preferably after dragging the imagery to one side so that other people can also have a go)?
