Google Maps Menu Scraper

Google Maps

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A Google Maps-focused menu scraper that extracts full restaurant menus as structured, spreadsheet-ready rows: one row per menu item including its menu section, dish name, description, displayed price and a parsed numeric price with currency, item position and total items, plus per-row restaurant metadata (name, address, category, rating, review count, price level, official menu link when available), unique place identifiers and search provenance, and a scrape timestamp. Operates by scraping Google Maps place records and parsing structured menu data; supports searching by cuisine+city or by supplying place URLs/IDs and bulk processing across queries and place lists. Technical features include session rotation, proxy escalation and retry logic to re-request incomplete place records, parsing and normalizing price values and currencies, and optional inclusion of restaurants that lack a structured menu by returning a single record with the restaurant’s external menu link.
