Google Maps is the last Google thing I rely really heavily on. I would love to be able to replace it with OSM but searching for places is far better on Google (admittedly, probably because they have more context for your search due to all the spying). I also rely a lot on Google reviews when I'm in a new place and just want to grab a coffee or a drink or something. Could probably use TripAdvisor for that though.
At least in m area, the reviews are almost useless. Except one DHL shop, every place has the typical U-shaped distribution typical for manipulation and/or bad sampling. Everything is simultaneously the worst and the best food.

Nobody cares enough to review average food.
