Report: https://directindex.org/r/cordonbleu.edu
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.)
Café Le Cordon Bleu is mostly ready for agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.cordonbleu.edu/london/visit-school/en (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +44 (0)20 7400 3900

## What to fix first
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. 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
