# Iron Pig Alehouse: Agent-Direct Score D (46.6%) Site: http://ironpigalehouse.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/ironpigalehouse.com Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Iron Pig Alehouse is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Iron Pig Alehouse's website. What Iron Pig Alehouse offers is in a PDF or an image, and assistants read those badly. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Toast. ## Direct links - Order directly: https://www.toasttab.com/iron-pig-alehouse/v3 (through toast acting for the business) - Menu: http://ironpigalehouse.com/ironpigalehouse2020/wp-content/uploads/IPA-21020-Menu-8.522-x-1122-Kids-Summer_01.pdf - Phone: (858) 412-4299 - Address: 1520 Garnet Ave, 92109, San Diego ## Nearby, also direct Places near Iron Pig Alehouse that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Slowly Restaurant + Bar (0 m): https://directindex.org/r/slowlysd.com - Powerhaus (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/powerhauspizza.com - Scuderie Italia (50 m): https://directindex.org/r/scuderieitalia.com - Mr. Charlie's (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/mrcharlies.co - Rizers Pizza (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/toasttab.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **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 - **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it. - **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as an HTML page and keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **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 ## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored) - **The footer says © 2022.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In San Diego, 76% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later. ## 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 ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Iron Pig Alehouse > local business (barbecue) in 1520 Garnet Ave, 92109, San Diego, San Diego.
