Eating and staying in Northern Territory
592 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels across 123 towns and suburbs in Northern Territory.
Northern Territory accounts for 1% of every venue we hold in New Zealand, which makes it the 8th-largest of the 8 regions by venue count. Those 592 venues sit across 123 named towns and suburbs, of which 5 carry at least 25 venues and get a page of their own.
Distribution inside the region is relatively even: Darwin (136), Alice Springs (56) and Katherine (43) hold 40% of everything between them. The remaining 118 places average 2.4 venues each — a long tail of small settlements that we list on the nearest town page rather than give an empty page to.
The regional split runs 65% eating to 74% accommodation, against a national 75/25. That is a markedly higher share of accommodation than the country as a whole — the mark of a region that hosts visitors rather than only feeding residents.
158 venues in Northern Territory carry a cuisine tag. Measured against the national mix, the region over-indexes on juice (4), ice cream (4) and asian (8).
Data quality varies by region and it is worth knowing where this one stands: 107 venues here publish opening hours (18% against 17% nationally), 213 list a website, and 34 record step-free access. Everything on this site comes from open data, so coverage reflects what mappers and councils have published — not what exists on the ground.
