Google Reviews Scraper

Extract Google Maps reviews for any place—restaurants, hotels, museums, shops, and more. Get up to 500 reviews per run with automatic translation and normalized timestamps.

Why use this scraper?

• Any place on Google Maps – search by name or address
• Reviews in English – every review is translated to English while keeping the original
• Structured timestamps – human-readable values like "6 hours ago" are parsed into ISO 8601 dates
• Author and rating data – names, ratings, links, and Local Guide info

What you get

Each review includes:

• Original and English text – original_review (source language) and english_review (translation to English). All reviews are translated so you can analyze them in a single language.
• Normalized timestamp – the timestamp field is parsed from the raw value (e.g. "6 hours ago", "8 months ago") into ISO 8601 (e.g. 2025-05-20T00:01:42). The original string is kept in raw_timestamp.
• Rating, URL, and language
• Author details – name, profile link, picture, review count, Local Guide level, badge

Sort options

• Newest – most recent first
• Most relevant – Google’s default ordering
• Highest rating – 5 stars down to 1
• Lowest rating – 1 star up to 5
