We hold 3,380 venues in Melbourne — 3,170 places to eat and 210 to stay. That is more than anywhere else in Victoria, and 20% of everything mapped across the region. Nationally it sits 1st out of 6,269 places.

Of the places to eat, 30% are cafés against a national figure of 30%. That is close to the New Zealand norm — Melbourne eats roughly the way the country does. The full split is 960 cafés, 1,236 restaurants, 482 takeaways, 268 bars and 224 pubs.

1,653 of the 3,170 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (185), japanese (153) and chinese (144). Relative to the rest of the country Melbourne is unusually strong on argentinian, soup and baked potato — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 808 publish opening hours (24%), 547 are recorded as step-free, 471 have outdoor seating and 119 flag vegetarian options. Coverage here is better than the 17% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.

For a bed, Melbourne runs to 210 listings — 164 hotels, 8 motels, 4 b&bs and guest houses, 26 hostels, 7 serviced apartments and 1 holiday parks and campgrounds. Hotels dominate, at 78% of the town's accommodation.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 221 of the 3,380 venues in Melbourne carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; 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.
