For October 2026 so far, 529 websites of restaurants and fast food businesses were scanned, with 316 reachable and 213 unreachable from our scanner. Among the reachable sites, 128 turn at least one AI crawler away at the edge, which is 41% of the reachable sites, while 8 block an AI crawler in robots.txt. Regarding direct access, 170 sites take a booking or an order on their own domain, representing 54% of the reachable sites, with 145 handling booking or ordering on the business's own site, 25 through a vendor on the business's own site, 34 through an unrecognised third party, 1 only through a marketplace, and 111 offering no booking or ordering path. Looking at grades and menus, 138 sites received an A or B together, which is 26% of the scanned sites, while 182 present a menu or price list as an HTML page, 21 as a PDF, 1 on another site, and 112 have no menu or price list.

 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.
