No they're not. They are activities (usually) operated inside a building.
What about large buildings with a pub and some shops on their ground floor?
None of those shops nor the pub is a building.

I agree with pub=yes, however. This would help a lot with the eternal
question "is this a pub, a cafe or a restaurant?" No problem, it's all of
them: pub=yes, cafe=yes, restaurant=yes. Does it have rooms too? hotel=yes.

Regards,

Simone
