Yelp Leads & Business Scraper — Emails + Unlimited Reviews

How It Works

The only Yelp scraper built for lead generation. Paste any Yelp search or business URL and get a clean, per-business row — name, rating, phone, website, address, hours, categories, price level — plus an optional verified contact email and unlimited customer reviews (no 3-review API cap). Bulk export to JSON or CSV. Pure HTTP, no headless browser to babysit.

Built for sales teams, agencies, and market researchers who need Yelp turned into an actionable B2B contact list — not just another business dump.

Why Use This Scraper?

• 📧 Contact emails nobody else returns — opt-in email enrichment reads each business's own website and attaches a real contactEmail, so your Yelp export is a ready-to-use lead list.
• ⭐ Unlimited reviews — pull every review per business, well past the 3-review limit of Yelp's official API, with full reviewer profiles and feedback counts.
• 🏢 25+ business fields — rating, review count, claim status, price level, categories, full address, phone, website, hours, owner info, amenities, photos, and the Yelp business ID.
• 🔗 Any URL works — Yelp search result pages and individual business pages, mixed freely in one run.
• ⚡ Bulk and fast — pure HTTP pipeline with configurable concurrency; scales from one business to thousands.
• 📤 Clean JSON or CSV — flat, predictable rows ready for your CRM, spreadsheet, or data warehouse.

Overview

The Yelp Leads & Business Scraper extracts three things in one run, each opt-in so you only pay for what you need:

1. Business profile (always) — the core record for every business found.
2. Customer reviews (toggle scrapeReviews) — a nested reviews[] array per business.
3. Contact email (toggle enrichEmails) — a contactEmail + full enrichment object per business.

Output is one row per business. Reviews and email data are attached to that business row, so you never have to join datasets afterward.

Supported Inputs

Provide one or more of these as startUrls. You can mix both kinds in a single run.

Input type	Example	What you get
Search URL	https://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=grill&find_loc=Los+Angeles%2C+CA	Every business across all result pages (auto-paginated)
Business URL	https://www.yelp.com/biz/fresh-corn-grill-west-hollywood	The full profile for that single business

Not supported: Yelp user profiles, Yelp Collections/lists, and the Yelp events directory. Provide search or business URLs only.

Use Cases

Audience	What they do with it
Sales & lead-gen teams	Build targeted B2B contact lists (business + email + phone) by city and category
Marketing agencies	Prospect local businesses for outreach campaigns
Market researchers	Analyze ratings, categories, and price levels across a market
Reputation / CX analysts	Pull full review histories for sentiment and trend analysis
Data teams	Feed Yelp business and review data into a CRM, BI tool, or warehouse

1. Paste URLs — drop any mix of Yelp search and business URLs into startUrls.
2. Discover — search URLs are paginated automatically; every business found is queued.
3. Extract — each business profile is parsed into 25+ flat fields.
4. Enrich (optional) — if enabled, the scraper pulls the full review history and looks up a contact email from the business's own website.
5. Emit — one clean row per business is pushed to your dataset, exportable as JSON or CSV.

Pure HTTP throughout — there's no headless browser or CAPTCHA solver for you to configure.

How This Compares

Capability	Most Yelp scrapers	This Actor
Business contact emails	✗	✅ opt-in enrichment
Reviews per business	often capped (3, like the official API)	✅ unlimited
Search and business URLs	one or the other	✅ both, mixed in one run
Fields per business	10–15	✅ 25+
Reviews + emails on the same row	separate datasets	✅ merged per business
Runtime	often headless browser	✅ pure HTTP

FAQ

Does it really return business emails? Yes — when enrichEmails is on, the scraper visits each business's own website (the one listed on its Yelp profile) and extracts a contact email. Coverage depends on the business publishing an email; not every business has one, and you're only billed per email actually found.

How is this different from Yelp's official API? Yelp's Fusion API caps reviews at three per business and exposes no contact emails. This actor returns the full review history and adds email enrichment — neither of which the official API offers.

Can I scrape just business data without reviews or emails? Yes. Both scrapeReviews and enrichEmails default to off — leave them off for a fast, business-only run.

Do I need to handle pagination? No. Search URLs are paginated automatically up to your maxItems limit.

Can I mix search and business URLs in one run? Yes — put any combination in startUrls.

What export formats are supported? JSON, CSV, Excel, and the other standard Apify dataset formats.

Is a browser or CAPTCHA solver required? No. The actor runs over pure HTTP with no headless browser to configure.
