There are a lot of tags that can be used about restaurants: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Drestaurant#Tags_used_in_combination

But it depends on which client display which tags.

Which client is good for android? Especially if I want to edit?

OSMAnd works quiet fine after you logged in. There are probably better ons, but I use it for specificall editing tags.

Be sure to checkout StreetComplete, which is a great way to contribute to OSM, especially for beginners.

This is unfortunately not for contributing photos.

I tried OSMAnd but it's so fucking slow despite having already downloaded the map. Organic Maps is so much faster and smoother.

Also wondering this

Also curious. I tried a couple that just did not work well or were painful to use without premium.

If I can't tell if I like it for free, I'm not going to pay.

Vespucci is awesome. I've used it extensively for years. It's only for editing though, not for navigation. I use OsmAnd (free pro features on f-droid)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I don't use the same clients for viewing and editing.

I mostly use OSMAnd for viewing (but it can do editing too). To edit I use StreetComplete for easy, gamified, contribution and Vespucci if I need a full on editor. StreetComplete only ask you missing information about the things around you, if I want to add something new I use Vespucci).

Oh?

The only tag for a menu is:

website:menu=* – url to menu of the restaurant (pdf or webpage)

So there's no way to just upload a photo of the menu when you visit. And if a restaurant doesn't have a website with a menu, there's no way to add a menu.
