Site: https://www.thealicehouse.co.uk/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/alicehouse.co.uk
Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
The Alice House is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of The Alice House. It can read what The Alice House offers. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://alicehouse.co.uk/queens-park-venue-hire (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://alicehouse.co.uk/queens-park#menu
- Phone: 02074318818

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
