Where to eat and stay in Parkes

30 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Parkes, New South Wales — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.

We hold 30 venues in Parkes — 11 places to eat and 19 to stay. That makes it the 117th-largest of the 1903 towns and suburbs we cover in New South Wales, carrying 0% of the region's venues.

Of the places to eat, 9% are cafés against a national figure of 30%. Parkes skews 21 points away from cafés and towards pubs, a pattern more typical of an evening trade. The full split is 1 cafés, 2 restaurants, 3 takeaways and 5 pubs.

4 of the 11 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (1), italian (1) and chicken (1). None of them is far out of line with the national picture; the mix here is broad rather than specialised.

For a bed, Parkes runs to 19 listings — 1 hotels, 11 motels, 1 b&bs and guest houses, 1 serviced apartments and 5 holiday parks and campgrounds. Motels dominate, at 58% of the town's accommodation. Accommodation is 63% 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 — Yass (30), South West Rocks (30), Beaconsfield (30) and Coonabarabran (30) — average 37% accommodation. Parkes runs at 63%, 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 Parkes 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.
