We hold 519 venues in Waterloo — 507 places to eat and 12 to stay. That makes it the 9th-largest of the 1556 towns and suburbs we cover in Ontario, carrying 2% of the region's venues. Nationally it sits 17th out of 6,205 places.

Of the places to eat, 19% are cafés against a national figure of 19%. That is close to the New Zealand norm — Waterloo eats roughly the way the country does. The full split is 96 cafés, 181 restaurants, 206 takeaways, 9 bars and 15 pubs.

414 of the 507 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are pizza (50), coffee shop (49) and burger (46). Relative to the rest of the country Waterloo is unusually strong on cafe, shawarma and persian — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 231 publish opening hours (45%), 84 are recorded as step-free, 32 have outdoor seating and 11 flag vegetarian options. Coverage here is better than the 21% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.

For a bed, Waterloo runs to 12 listings — 6 hotels, 1 b&bs and guest houses and 5 holiday parks and campgrounds. Hotels dominate, at 50% of the town's accommodation.

Places of a similar size — Halifax (513), Victoria (510), Gatineau (491) and Québec (561) — average 9% accommodation. Waterloo runs at 2%, noticeably less, so it feeds locals more than it beds travellers.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 56 of the 519 venues in Waterloo 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.
