# The Eatery: Agent-Direct Score D (50.3%) Site: http://www.media24.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/media24.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.) The Eatery is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by The Eatery's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a phone number, but no link to book or order online. ## Direct links - Phone: +27214063003 - Address: 9A Rua Vasco Da Gama Plain, 8000, Cape Town - Languages: Afrikaans, English ## Nearby, also direct Places near The Eatery that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Westin Executive Club Lounge (410 m): https://directindex.org/r/marriott.com ## What to fix first - **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+13 points) There's only a phone number or WhatsApp, and agents can't use those yet. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **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 - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as ClaudeBot (cloudflare_challenge) 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 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 ## 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.
