Where to eat and stay in Coober Pedy

38 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Coober Pedy, South Australia — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.

We hold 38 venues in Coober Pedy — 13 places to eat and 25 to stay. That makes it the 11th-largest of the 653 towns and suburbs we cover in South Australia, carrying 1% of the region's venues.

Of the places to eat, 8% are cafés against a national figure of 30%. Coober Pedy skews 22 points away from cafés and towards restaurants, a pattern more typical of an evening trade. The full split is 1 cafés, 6 restaurants, 3 takeaways, 1 bars and 2 pubs.

4 of the 13 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are chicken (1), fish and chips (1) and pizza (1). None of them is far out of line with the national picture; the mix here is broad rather than specialised.

For a bed, Coober Pedy runs to 25 listings — 4 hotels, 10 motels, 3 b&bs and guest houses, 1 hostels and 7 holiday parks and campgrounds. Motels dominate, at 40% of the town's accommodation. Accommodation is 66% of everything mapped here, well above the 25% national share — the signature of a place that hosts more visitors than it has residents.

Places of a similar size — Lithgow (38), Sunshine (38), Mentone (38) and Port Fairy (38) — average 12% accommodation. Coober Pedy runs at 66%, noticeably more, which is what a place that takes in visitors looks like.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. No venue in Coober Pedy yet carries the six recorded attributes needed for its own page, so the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
