API for getting names of nearby shops from GPS location on a smartphone

I am looking for an API which returns a list of nearby shop/cafe/business names (with coordinates would be great but not needed) within a given radius (or simply "nearby" if available) - from a given set of coordinates (which could be the current location).

I am undecided as to which platform to use (native Android or iOS or non-native AIR for example or Javascript/ajax on a webpage) and so welcome any known apis. I would only expect the api to work on web-enabled devices.

Thanks in advance

I've used Foursquare Venue Explore API in one of my last projects. Maybe it fits in your case.
