# Maine Café: Agent-Direct Score B (80%)

Site: http://www.mainecafe.fr
Report: https://directindex.org/r/mainecafe.fr
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Maine Café is mostly ready for agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: http://www.mainecafe.fr/contact/#book-online (on the business's own site)
- Menu: http://www.mainecafe.fr/la-carte/

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Agents and browsers downrank or refuse it.
- **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

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
