Google Maps has now introduced “Places” which makes it a snap to find a place. The feature is location-based, so it knows where you are while using it.
Per Google:
Search for several convenient types of places with the default categories or add your own for your most frequent searches. You can also use the search bar at the top to type or speak any query. I tend to use the “coffee” search a lot, but I’ve also looked for “gas stations” on the road, “ice cream shops” in my neighborhood, and even specific places like “Chelsea Market” on a recent trip to New York.
Also included are more details of individual businesses, such as parking, prices and menu items. [Google Mobile Blog]
