Step by step

  1. 1
    Copy the YouTube link

    Open the food video on YouTube and copy its URL — a full vlog with spoken restaurant names works best.

  2. 2
    Paste it into Foodcrawl

    Drop the link in the box above. Foodcrawl reads the transcript and extracts each restaurant with the exact quote and timestamp.

  3. 3
    Open any pin in Google Maps

    Every restaurant has an “Open in Google Maps” button, so you can save it to your own list or get directions instantly.

FAQ

Is there a tool to convert a YouTube video into a Google Maps list?
Foodcrawl does this: paste a YouTube food video and it extracts every restaurant onto a map, with a one-tap Google Maps link for each. It is free and runs in the browser.
Does it work without the creator listing addresses in the description?
Yes. Foodcrawl reads what is said in the video itself (the transcript), so it finds restaurants even when they are only mentioned out loud and never written in the description.
Is it free?
Yes — Foodcrawl is open-source (AGPL-3.0), with no ads, no subscription, and no account required.
