How do you deal with shops that have more than one category? (lemmy.ml)

Say, a book store with a café. Or a place that is a café by day and a wine bar by night.

Always check wiki for the particular case. E.g. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dbooks#Cafes_inside_bookshops

I'm dealing with some weird ones, like laundromat cafés and stationery shop cafés. But at least it looks like I can add an amenity tag to most of these. It's just the bar/café that I'm really struggling with.
