Tagging

The individual tag values can be yes, served. If a location is a bakery which is serving for example cake the right combination would be food:cake=served and if you only know that you can get cakes, but don't know in which form you should use food:cake=yes. In order to choose the right spelling for the given food or dish refer to the English label in Wikidata.
