Have you tried open street maps? I suggest organic street maps for your phone

Organic Maps are great, however if you're looking for shops and restaurants (or rather their reviews) Google Maps are second to none.

OSM can technically replace Gmaps for shops and restaurants if enough people were using and updating it.

However, Gmaps in unbeatable for public transportation :( no alternative at all

In Europe at least I had some minor functionality with OSMAnd... but Google beats it out no contest, in terms of speed, accuracy, and being up-to-date... which is depressing but that's the reality.

it's the only reason I haven't stopped using Maps
