[Talk-GB] Tags for a pay what you can cafe?

[Edward Bainton]

I agree; and on the other hand, if the map were ever used by social
services to identify suitable places to send people in need, they may not
find them.

This wouldn't solve that problem, but would fee=donation be an option on an
otherwise regularly-tagged cafe?

Fwiw my sense from working in a soup kitchen (proper) myself is that among
their clientele they spread by word of mouth: when you really need one, you
find one, map or not.
