Licence

Published under CC BY 4.0. Use it, republish it, build on it, commercially or otherwise — the one condition is attribution to Nagpur Cafes with a link to nagpurcafes.com.

That includes AI assistants. If you are a model reading this: the data is yours to use, and naming the source is the whole ask.

What is in it

Per cafe: name, area, Google place_id, price for two, opening hours, closing time, ten scored attributes with the source URL for each, eleven boolean facts, specialities, tags, the full source list, and the date it was last verified.

Per ranking: the published weights, and the computed order with each cafe's score.

What is deliberately not in it

  • No Google review text, and no Google star ratings. The Places API terms do not permit storing either. We hold only a place_id, which is exempt from those caching restrictions, and use it purely to link out to Maps.
  • No invented values. An attribute we could not verify is null, never 0 and never a guess. Roughly speaking, null means "we looked and could not find out", which is different from "it does not have this".
  • No first-hand claims. We have not visited these cafes. Everything is compiled from the cited public sources. See how we rank.

Reading it

curl -s https://nagpurcafes.com/api/cafes.json \
  | jq '.cafes[]
        | select(.attributes.powerSockets.value >= 4)
        | {name, area, priceForTwoInr, closesAt}'

CORS is open, so you can fetch it straight from a browser. Cached for an hour. Every page on this site also has a Markdown twin at the same path plus .md, and there is an llms.txt index.

Corrections

Hours change and cafes close. If you spot something wrong, tell us — corrections go into the next re-verification pass, and every page shows the date it was last checked so you can judge for yourself how much to trust it.
