Restaurant email list: the free list and the full one
Restaurant email addresses come from a website lookup through Google Maps Business Lead & Email Finder. The free restaurant CSVs help you identify venues by city, while their email indicators contain no actual addresses.

- Check a sample before you send: the emails are read from each business website, so a role address (info@, office@) is normal. Follow the outreach rules of the country you email.
For restaurant prospecting, settle the venue list before collecting contacts. A restaurant name is a useful starting point, but you still need to check whether the resulting email reaches that location and the right recipient for your purpose.
- Select a city for your restaurant search.
- Download the free restaurant CSV for that city.
- Shortlist the venues that fit your project.
- Search that city’s restaurants with Google Maps Business Lead & Email Finder using the Store listing’s instructions.
- Review the returned contacts on the restaurants’ own websites.
- Export the restaurant contacts you have checked.
Where this usually breaks
An email marked as present in the free CSV is still only a yes-or-no indicator. The address must come from the separate website lookup. During review, check whether a contact serves the named restaurant, a group office or a different location before assigning it to a venue.
What to check before you use the list
Match the restaurant name and city to the website behind each contact. Decide whether your list needs individual venues or restaurant groups before removing duplicates. Review the Store listing’s charges, including the start fee and platform usage, before collecting contacts.
Questions
Is the free restaurant download ready for email outreach?
The free download contains no email addresses. Use it to choose restaurants for a separate contact search.
Does an email indicator reveal the address?
A positive indicator means an email exists on the map record. The free CSV never displays or includes that address.
Will a restaurant email reach its owner?
Inspect the contact details on the restaurant’s website to identify the intended recipient. Label the result according to what you can verify, such as a venue contact or a named person.
Are restaurant phone numbers available for free?
Available numbers are shown for clear business premises. The free lists exclude sole trader phone numbers.
