Google Places Place Reviews Scraper

Get user reviews for a place by place_id. Each review includes the rating, full review text, author info (with photo URL, total review count, and Local Guide level), timestamps, attached photos, and any owner response. Sort by most relevant, newest, highest ranking, or lowest ranking. Filter by language, or set translate_reviews=true to translate all returned reviews into the requested language. Each page returns up to 10 reviews.

Features

• Real-time Google Places data — results are fetched live at run time, never cached or stale
• No login, cookies, or proxy configuration needed — just provide the input and run
• Each result is pushed as a separate dataset item, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel
• Fast: a typical run finishes in seconds

• Results come in pages. Use the pages input to choose how many pages to fetch (1–10); more pages means more results.
• You pay $0.01 for each page you fetch, so pages: 3 costs $0.03 and pages: 1 costs $0.01.
• You’re only charged when a run succeeds. Failed runs are free.
