Scanned: 2026-11-12 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Hains & Co is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Hains & Co'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, through nowbookit.

- HENNESSY Rooftop Bar (70 m): https://directindex.org/r/ihg.com
- Adelaide Metro (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/adelaidemetro.com.au

## What to fix first
- **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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **4 prices on the landing page, the middle one A$1,060.** In Adelaide, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is A$25.00.

## 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.
