When you search for a restaurant in Google places and go to the business profile (i.e.: https://plus.google.com/107507038669791289691/about?hl=en) the restaurant has a tag (in this case Mexican Restaurant). But when using the Google places api all I can see is a types list
"types" : [ "restaurant", "food", "establishment" ]
Anyone know if it's possible to get the tag "Mexican Restaurant" somehow?
I know about the supported types (https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/supported_types). It is not super helpful.
I think you would probably have to revert to the text search method on the api..
https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/search#TextSearchRequests
So your request would end up looking something like the below, restricted down to a specific area
However this will return all other Mexican restaurants in the area, so if you just want to return the one result I would use the Place Details request instead.
I was also working in a project which need to get more details about a place using Google Maps and Google Places APIs, and I really spent many hours trying to find something that can help ( Google Places API, Google Maps API, google+ APIs, ... ) but nothing ... the only things that I found is theses 2 issues ( feature requests ) which I hope that Google will add to their APIs someday :
I hope with this SO question that we get more interested persons to get the feature in a soon future version of Google Map or Google Places APIs.
For the Google Places for Work API, I didn't find any information to confirm or not that it contains such feature, but I don't think so.
Hope that can help.
Separate your place types by PIPE symbol "|"
try like this :
String types = "cafe|restaurant|museum" // Listing places only cafes, restaurants and museums.
