Where to eat and stay in Townsville
155 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Townsville, Queensland — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.
We hold 155 venues in Townsville — 124 places to eat and 31 to stay. That makes it the 9th-largest of the 1280 towns and suburbs we cover in Queensland, carrying 1% of the region's venues.
Of the places to eat, 27% are cafés against a national figure of 30%. That is close to the New Zealand norm — Townsville eats roughly the way the country does. The full split is 34 cafés, 40 restaurants, 29 takeaways, 5 bars and 16 pubs.
69 of the 124 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (11), burger (9) and pizza (6). Relative to the rest of the country Townsville is unusually strong on ice cream, asian and kebab — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.
On the practical detail: 48 publish opening hours (31%), 5 are recorded as step-free, 18 have outdoor seating and 1 flag vegetarian options. Coverage here is better than the 17% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.
For a bed, Townsville runs to 31 listings — 11 hotels, 11 motels, 3 b&bs and guest houses, 2 hostels and 4 holiday parks and campgrounds. Hotels dominate, at 35% of the town's accommodation.
Places of a similar size — Coffs Harbour (153), Bundaberg (162), Bendigo (146) and Manly (145) — average 19% accommodation. Townsville runs at 20%, much the same, so on this measure it behaves like its peers.
All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 5 of the 155 venues in Townsville 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.
