One thing I've been annoyed at Google maps for is the inability to search delis, restaurants, takeout places, etc. all in one query. I want literally everything within 2 or 3 blocks of me. I usually search "food", "restaurant", and maybe "takeout" and different stuff pops up for each.

- xapata 8y agoIt used to show all food places when searching for restaurants. Maybe they've discovered that, for most folks, those are different searches.
- cptskippy 8y agoIt use to let you filter by price and cuisine but that seems to be gone.
- monksy 8y agoIt's because their place data isn't so rich. Also they haven't considered it a priority to build out that kind of a search. (Despite it being a lucrative space)
