But so does "picnic." Wikipedia confirms my understanding of "picnic" - an outdoors meal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picnic All I've managed to turn up on Google for "picnic room" are translations of "salle hors sac" made by people who don't speak English as a first language. Google Translate gives me "out of bag" for "hors sac" which in colloquial English would be "packed meal." And you take a packed meal on a picnic, so "salle hors sac" turns into "picnic room." Which is not colloquial English or anything a British English speaker would comprehend as being what you want to map. What you're describing is almost a cafeteria (which we already have a tag for) except that there may not be any purchasable food and, if there is purchasable food, it's from a vending machine whereas real cafeterias generally offer self-service food. So fast_food=cafeteria is a better fit, but still not a good fit. A better fit would be automat, although I think that's an American term with little or no usage in British English. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automat And, if I understand you correctly, there may not be vending machines in some of these places, and most real automats wouldn't let you bring your own food. I can't think of any good term for a building which contains tables and chairs which you can use to eat a packed meal. We have leisure=outdoor_seating for consumption of meals/drinks, but that is open, even if covered. And the tag value itself doesn't convey that it's for food, you have to look at the wiki page or see that it is used near to somewhere serving food which is tagged as having outdoor seating. So inventing leisure=indoor_seating is probably a bad idea, especially if there are no vending machines. It probably needs something along the lines of leisure=indoor_food_consumption (needs a better name than that) with optional amenity=vending_machine + vending=food|drinks nodes. And maybe an explicit bring_your_own_food=yes tag (needs a better name than that). Actually, leisure=dining_room might be a better name than leisure=indoor_food_consumption, except it's not really used in British English for a public room but for a room in a house or guest house. -- Paul
