     <head>
     <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"> </script> 
   <script>
   $(document).ready(function() {
   $.getJSON("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=-33.8670522,151.1957362&radius=500&types=food&name=harbour&sensor=false&key=AIzaSyC1BIAzM34uk6SLY40s-nmXMivPJDfWgTc",
  function(data, textStatus){
alert(data);
  $.each(data.results,function(i, name) {;
   $("#placenames").append(i+':'+name.vicinity+'<br/>');
 });
});
});
 </script>

Have you tried using Google Maps Javascript API? It does all the JSONP stuff for you.

Here is a demo with your coordinates: http://jsfiddle.net/ThinkingStiff/CjfcX/

Script: 

var places = new google.maps.places.PlacesService( document.createElement( 'div' ) ),
    searchRequest = {

        name: 'harbour',
        location: new google.maps.LatLng( -33.8670522, 151.1957362 ),
        radius: 500,
        types: ['food']

    };

places.search( searchRequest, function ( results, status ) {

    var html = '';

    for ( var index = 0; index < results.length; index++ ) {

        html +=
              '<li '
            + 'data-location-id="' + results[index].id + '" '
            + 'data-address="' + results[index].vicinity + '" '
            + 'data-latitude="' + results[index].geometry.location.lat() + '" '
            + 'data-longitude="' + results[index].geometry.location.lng() + '" '
            + 'data-name="' + results[index].name + '">'
            + '<div>' + results[index].name + '</div>'
            + '<div>' + results[index].vicinity + '</div>'
            + '</li>';

    };

    document.getElementById( 'results' ).innerHTML = html;

} );

HTML:

<script src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?libraries=places,geometry&sensor=true"></script>
<ul id="results"></ul>

Output:

Google API does not support the callback/JSONP from a jQuery get/getJSON at this time

To load async, you need to do something like this:

function loadScript() {
  var script = document.createElement("script");
  script.type = "text/javascript";
  script.src = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&callback=initialize";
  document.body.appendChild(script);
}

You have to add this querystring so that it is parsed as jsonp:

&callback=?
