Recently it has been popular in Asia to establish food and drink facilities as a new service to library patrons. In Taiwan, only a few libraries offer such a service. This paper reviews the results of a survey of those libraries, and analyzes the main reasons for the inadequacy or absence of such a service. In reference to the example of the libraries in Singapore, the paper argues that the Singaporean concepts, designs and practices could be used as our guidelines to promote the development of food and drink services in library in the future.
