Grubhub API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Grubhub Search API to extract supported public Grubhub data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/grubhub/searchReturns restaurants delivering to (or offering pickup at) a latitude/longitude, optionally filtered by keyword over restaurant names, cuisines and dishes. Each restaurant carries its id (the value every other Grubhub endpoint takes), name, full address with coordinates, phone, cuisines, star rating and rating count, Grubhub's 1-4 price tier, distance, open state, delivery and pickup fees and minimums, service fee, delivery and pickup time estimates, coupon availability and total menu item count. A location Grubhub does not serve returns an empty list rather than an error. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |

| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
