If we look at the documentation for the Google Places API, we can see the format of the JSON that a request to the API returns. You can traverse the json object and get your required values as in below snippet.

JObject objectContainer = response.Value<JObject>("candidates");

foreach (KeyValuePair<string, JToken> tag in objectContainer)
{
    if(tag.key=="formatted_address")
        var address = tag.value;
    if(tag.key=="name")
        var name = tag.value;
}

With a simple HTTP request to the Google Places API, we can then use above code to get required fields.

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    var response = await client.GetStringAsync("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/findplacefromtext/json?input=YOUR_POSTCODE&inputtype=textquery&&fields=photos,formatted_address,name,opening_hours,rating&key=YOUR_API_KEY");
    var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<PlacesApiQueryResponse>(response);
}
