Findings

What to fix first

  1. No structured data for the business +15 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. How to fix it

  2. No booking or ordering path at all +15 points

    Agents have nothing to act on. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  3. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points

    Live fetches as GPTBot (http_503) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it
