Help search nearby location issue

I am having a problem with location based search on my Pixel 3 XL.

I live in City-A.
I travel to City-B
I ask the android assistant to "Find nearby grocery stores"
Assistant returns with grocery stores near City-A, which is not what I need.

My Google app, and Maps app (and all my apps for that matter) are fully up to date.
I have location services enabled, along with location accuracy.
I have read the article that describes this exact problem occurring on Android Auto, and that google has released a 'fix' for it, but I'm not using Auto, just plain assistant.

How do I get this fix for my phone??
 
Have you tried turning location off, waiting a few, then back on after you travel?

How about taking all your apps out of recents as well, after your travel and before your search?

Lastly, try a manual search with your browser after your travel.

These are all shots in the dark, btw, as I have no luck with anything 'automatic'.
