How Gastro routes work

With Gastro selected, the planner looks for cafés, bakeries and restaurants near your route, keeps only places rated 3.8 stars or higher and ranks them by a mix of rating and number of reviews. A café with 4.6 stars from hundreds of reviews usually beats a perfect score from a handful.

Tips for food stops

Check opening times before you go, especially early in the week and on Sundays, when many independent places close. Markets and food halls are good when a group can't agree. Pair a food stop with a park and you have somewhere pleasant to eat a takeaway, and a reusable cup and bottle cut down on waste along the way.
