In oktober 2026 zijn er 608 websites van restaurants en fastfood gescand, waarvan er 492 bereikbaar waren en 116 onbereikbaar vanaf onze scanner. Van de bereikbare sites weren 165 sites, oftewel 34% van de bereikbare sites, ten minste één AI crawler aan de rand, terwijl 6 sites een AI crawler blokkeren in robots.txt. Voor reserveren of bestellen gebeurt dit bij 159 direct op de eigen site van de business, bij 10 via een leverancier op de eigen site van de business, bij 51 uitsluitend via een marktplaats, bij 24 via een niet-herkende derde partij, en bij 248 is er geen pad voor reserveren of bestellen. Wat de cijfers betreft kregen 45 sites een A, 109 een B, 125 een C, 149 een D en 180 een F, waarmee A of B samen op 154 uitkomt, wat 25% van de gescande sites is.

Method

How this page is made

Every business of the index's kind with a website of its own is scanned the same way, about once a month, and every scan is kept. This page takes the latest scan of each site before October 2026 ended, so a site fixed in the following month shows up in the following month's page, not here. A past month does not change. The assistant tables use the latest answer per business and question before the month ended. Methodology · the live index · all cities.
