This would be an interesting additional layer for google maps search which I often find to be lacking. For example, I was recently travelling in Gran Canaria and looking for places selling artesan coffee in the south (spoiler: only one in a hotel which took me almost half an hour to even find). Searching for things like "pourover" and "v60" is usually my go-to signal but unless the cafe mentions this in their description or its mentioned in reviews it's hard to find. I don't think they even index the text on the photos customers take (which will often include the coffee menu behind the cashier).

Seems like searching for V60 would get you a lot of Volvos! Is anyone photographing these words in coffee shops that would let them be surfaced here?

		Yeah, that can be somewhat of a problem in bigger cities ;-) It's pretty common for people to have taken a photo of the menu in cafes but as mentioned it seems google isn't ingesting or surfacing that information for text search.

It could be. If they didn't think about it, now they can.

Could easily seeing myself come back to this.
