For October 2026 so far, 227 restaurant and fast food websites were scanned, with 216 reachable and 11 unreachable from our scanner. Looking at results, 71 sites received an A or B together, which is 31% of the scanned sites, while 30 received an A, 41 a B, 42 a C, 38 a D, and 76 an F. For technical access, 49 sites turn at least one AI crawler away at the edge, which is 22% of the scanned sites (dead addresses left out), and 21 block an AI crawler in robots.txt. Regarding direct interaction, 99 sites take a booking or an order on their own domain, which is 46% of the reachable sites, with 89 offering booking or ordering on the business's own site, 10 through a vendor on the business's own site, 5 only through a marketplace, 5 through an unrecognised third party, and 107 offering no booking or ordering path.

 Method

## How this page is made

Every business of this kind that has its own website gets the same scan, about once a month, and every scan is kept. This page uses each site's latest scan from before the end of October 2026. A site fixed the month after shows up on the next month's page. A past month doesn't change. The assistant tables use the latest answer per business and question from before the month ended.
