How to get place name using longitude and latitude in JavaScript

I have only lon and lat. I need the address and phone no of the object at the given lon and lat. How would I do it using only JavaScript?

I additionally need to show a marker (infowindow.set(address and phone no)).

this is my code:

var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
      position: new google.maps.LatLng(aCars[0],aCars[1]),
      map: map,
      title: 'My workplace',
      clickable: false,
      icon: 'images/images.png'
      });   
      google.maps.event.addListener(marker,'mouseover',function() {
          infowindow.setContent(     );
      infowindow.open(map, this);
      });

  1. You Can Use Geodatasource API to get a Place or area name! 500 req/month Free

      fetch('https://api.geodatasource.com/city? 
 key=YOUR_KEY&&format=json&lat=22.3072&lng=73.1812')
.then((response) => response.json())
.then((responseJson) => {

  Alert.alert(responseJson.city+","+responseJson.region)
  console.log(responseJson.city);
})
.catch((error) => {
  console.error(error);
});

Check out the reverse geocoding API by google, although i double you'll actually get a phone number, you'll have to talk to a phonebook api for that i'm afraid.
