Restaurant & Business Leads from OpenStreetMap: a Google Maps scraper alternative

Extract restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels, shops and other local businesses for any city, bounding box or radius from OpenStreetMap. You get name, address, GPS coordinates, website, phone, opening hours, cuisine, diet tags (vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free), outdoor seating, takeaway, delivery and more.

It's fast and cheap: one query per city, no browser, no proxies, no Google rate limits. The data is open (ODbL), so you can reuse it in your product with attribution.

Use cases: restaurant lead lists for B2B sales (POS, delivery, menu/QR software, suppliers), market maps, store locators, hospitality analytics, and enriching CRM data.

• Cities: use the local OpenStreetMap name (Kraków, Lisboa, München). Add the country code to avoid same-name towns.
• Or give a bounding box (south,west,north,east) or a center point + radius.
• Categories: restaurants, cafés, bars, pubs, fast food, hotels, guest houses, hostels, bakeries, supermarkets, hairdressers, gyms… or any custom OSM tag (craft=brewery, tourism=museum).
• Filters: only places with a website or a phone.

Pricing

Pay per place saved. See the Pricing tab. Much cheaper per lead than browser-based Google Maps scrapers.

Data quality and coverage

OpenStreetMap is edited by volunteers and businesses. City centres in Europe are well covered; contact fields are filled for a share of places (in our Málaga test, roughly half the cafés and restaurants near the centre had a website or phone). Use requireWebsite / requirePhone to get only contactable leads.

FAQ

Legal? OpenStreetMap data is © OpenStreetMap contributors and licensed under the ODbL 1.0. You may use it commercially; keep the attribution and share-alike terms when you publish a derived database. Each record carries the attribution.

Personal data? The actor outputs business venue data as tagged in OSM. Contact fields can be turned off with includeContacts: false. Professions that are often single people (lawyers, accountants, doctors) are not offered as categories. If you use contact data for marketing, follow GDPR and ePrivacy rules in your country.

Which servers are used? Public Overpass API instances that allow commercial use (overpass.private.coffee, with the VK Maps instance as fallback). You can point it to your own Overpass server.
