So I'll stick with 'outside seating' but add 'beer garden' for pubs which have a proper garden?
Sounds like a plan!
Still unsure what to do about the Magdalen Arms, which has tables for eating outside, in a fenced-off (non-smoking) area, with pot plants and stuff, but it is definitely paved rather than garden-ish.
I reckon the pot plants make it a garden.
Maybe 'outside non-smoking area' is another category. (The Turf has one of those as well.)
I would be interested in seeking out places in such a category! So I think it's a good one, unless it really is just the Magdalen Arms and the Turf...
Other things I can think of which might count as 'postal services' without being a post office are: [snip list] [...] So I don't think it's an entirely useless category (I think there's a set of things that I would expect a Post Office to include over and above sending stuff through the post, which these places don't include) but it may not be very clear (though we can & probably should add scope notes when we come to these decisions).
Oh, I seeeee, yes. We can add notes on the category pages, to tell people what belongs in each category.
I'm not sure if Post Offices need to have Postal Services as a category too [...]
I think they do at the moment, since we can't do automatic subcatgorisation yet, and it is useful to be able to get a map of all places with postal services.
