Restaurants in Belgium — nationwide B2B lead lists

What you'll find scraping restaurants across Belgium

Belgium is small but linguistically split — Dutch-speaking Flanders in the north, French-speaking Wallonia in the south, and bilingual Brussels between them. Brussels and Antwerp are the largest business markets, with Ghent and Liège significant regional hubs. Cover the country with a French-language pass and a Dutch-language pass so neither region is missed.

For restaurants specifically, the size of the national list depends on how many cities and sub-categories you search: a single query returns a slice, while a city-by-city sweep can surface thousands of businesses across Belgium. Expect a little over half to list a website — the rest you can still reach by phone. The major markets to search are:

• Brussels
• Antwerp
• Ghent
• Liège
• Bruges

The best way to scrape Belgium nationwide

Open the Google Maps scraper and set the country to Belgium. The setting that matters most is breadth: add several major cities as separate regions in one job rather than running a single national query. Google caps each query at roughly 120 results, so Belgium is best covered by running its major cities as separate regions in one job — Kavex deduplicates on place ID across them, so no business is ever returned twice.

• Run the search twice — once with French terms, once with Dutch — to cover both Wallonia and Flanders.
• Brussels and Antwerp hold most of the national market; start there, then add the regional cities.
• Kavex deduplicates on place ID across regions, so a two-language sweep never double-counts.
• Add Ghent, Liège and Bruges to reach beyond the two largest cities.

Who buys Belgium restaurant lists

A nationwide restaurant list for Belgium is valuable to a specific set of vendors. Typical buyers: POS systems, food-delivery platforms, reservation software, payment processors, food distributors, marketing agencies.

What the nationwide restaurant export looks like

Every job downloads as one CSV with a single restaurant per row, no matter how many cities it spans. Each row carries the business name, full address, phone number, website, primary category, star rating and review count, with a website-extracted email added wherever one is published. A national export looks like this:

• One deduplicated row per business across every city searched.
• A Brussels restaurant: phone, website and a website-extracted email.
• A Antwerp listing: phone and website present, no public email — still reachable by phone.
• A smaller-city restaurant: phone only, ready for a Phone Validator pass before any call.

Enrich and personalise before you reach out

Toggle "Include emails" so the scraper visits each restaurant website and extracts a contact address, then run those through the Email Verifier to drop anything undeliverable. The Phone Validator sorts the remaining numbers into mobile and landline, and the AI Personalizer turns each row into a short cold email referencing the business and its city — far stronger than a single national mail-merge blast.
