Site: https://www.bobbysmcr.co.uk/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/bobbysmcr.co.uk
Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Bobby's is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Bobby's's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.bobbysmcr.co.uk/book-appointment (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +44 161 442 1777

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Bobby's that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Room B Boutique Spa Salon (230 m): https://directindex.org/r/roomb.co.uk
- Thedukesbarbershop (700 m): https://directindex.org/r/dukesbarbershop.co.uk
- BLISS (720 m): https://directindex.org/r/bliss-hairdressing.co.uk
- Blush'd (730 m): https://directindex.org/r/blushd.co.uk

## What to fix first
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+2 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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

## 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.
