# Rex Ny Cigar Club: Agent-Direct Score F (28.6%) Site: https://barclayrex.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/barclayrex.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Rex Ny Cigar Club is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by Rex Ny Cigar Club's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to OpenTable, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Phone: 12128589932 - Address: 126 Pearl St Fl 2, 10005-2861, New York - Prices: 17 prices on the site, the middle one $216 ## Nearby, also direct Places near Rex Ny Cigar Club that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Complete Body Juice Bar (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/completebody.com - Continental Bar & Lounge (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/continentalbarnyc.com - The Blue Bar (90 m): https://directindex.org/r/masterpiececaterers.com - Harry's Side Bar (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/harryssidebar.com - Craft10 Cocktail Delivery VIP (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/getcraft10.com ## 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). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Booking only through opentable.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended.** (+3.7 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business - **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 1-212-962-3355, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists 12128589932. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org. ## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored) - **17 prices on the landing page, the middle one $216.** ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` robots.txt. Add these lines to /robots.txt and delete any Disallow rule that names these crawlers. ``` # Let AI assistants read the site: they send people to you; a marketplace keeps them. # Remove any Disallow lines for these names elsewhere in this file.

Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there.
