Some features are already cross-venue but don't advertise it. Bars and Lounges can have bowling alleys for example- and bowling groups will still spawn and everything! And you can get Yoga classes going in Parks and Rec Centers. I have a full explanation series of venues and what they can do for more information.
Ideally they'd make this how it works for most things for most venues in general, where it would make sense. The bubble tea counter being exclusive to...a thrift store...a venue which makes so little sense to begin with...really is shortsighted, but I think that's more a problem with High School Years' development being really poorly thought out in general. The whole pack is drowning in half-baked features.
The bubble tea counter works very nicely with the community space lots as well so you could technically make a bubble tea shop without the thrift store attached to it.
Ohh... I haven't tested much with community lots. I did try to shove a ton of food stalls onto one before and found out the hard way that they don't populate and need vendors hired manually lol. Oh snap, just realized Bar type lot lets bubble tea counter be a bar :)
I think the limit is for one or two food vendors and 3 sales tables on community space lots. If you stick to the limits they work wonderfully. There's mods you can use if you want to have vendors show up for all the stalls you add to the lot.
Ah.. I'll have to try that out on the community lot then. :) I try to play the game mod free, so mods aren't an option for me.
