Summary
A Kiosk is a little shop selling cigarettes, newspapers, sweets, snacks and beverages.
A Kiosk is a very small shop. It is sometimes a little stand-alone pavilion (like in the picture) but may also be a small box shop located in other buildings like stations or shopping centres.
Kiosks are often open after hours and therefore sometimes provides some pieces of butter, milk and such like. They may sell alcohol, but this may vary in countries where alcohol may only be sold with a license, a Kiosk is no Liquor Store.
How to Map

or an area 
(although because kiosks are always small, you may be less likely to use an area for this type of shop) Place a node at the centre of the shop, or draw area around the outline of the building.
