[Talk-GB] Tagging a record store that also sells drinks

hairdresser-cafe. I like it!

And taking things also more seriously, I am a fan of thinking of OSM 
tags as "primary" and "metadata" and trying where possible (not always 
easy) to have only one primary tag per node/way entity. I personally 
don't like having a function (shop) on a building (a man-made physical 
structure) - so doctrinal rather than ya-must-do-this but from 
experience works very well.

So, yep, I'd have a separate hairdresser node. And for the OP, I'd 
definitely consider a separate shop=kiosk.

Other real world examples:

In Sweden, supermarkets often run the local post office too under a 
franchising system. It makes things much easier (display, searching) to 
have a separate post-office node ... which can also physically placed 
over the counter location.

In Australia, particularly in rural/semi-rural areas, it is very common 
to have the pub expanded to have a convenience store/small supermarket, 
bottle shop, an ATM machine and perhaps a cafe/restaurant distinct from 
the pub itself.

Hotels, golf courses (!) with a restaurant catering to off-the-street 
customers. Book shops with cafes.

Harder ones: Pubs with integrated eating.
