Best Local Scout alternative for Windows 10 Phone

Hi all,

I upgraded my aging Lumia 920 to the 950 in November. But my wife is still on her 1020. She loves Local Scout, and uses it all the time.

But last I checked, Local Scout is not available for Windows 10 Phones. Is there something that serves the same purpose?

- mainly used for restaurant lookup
- must list options sorted by distance (closest first)
- allow for filter by cuisine/restaurant type

Maybe something like Yelp!?

Windows Maps has some of this functionality built-in.

Tap where you want to search for results.
It should open a section with "Nearby".
You have similar category filters to Local Scout.

It does order by distance, but does not display the distance.
You can not filter by sub-category.
