- Silver Fern (150 m): https://directindex.org/r/silverfernmpls.com
- Aster Cafe (390 m): https://directindex.org/r/astercafe.com

## What to fix first
- **Booking only through eventbrite.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **9 prices on the landing page, the middle one $25.00.** In Minneapolis, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $15.57.

## 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
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Northeast Tea House",
  "url": "https://northeastteahouse.com/",
  "telephone": "+16122553337",
  "address": "224 E Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis 55414",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 44.98782776,
    "longitude": -93.25657487
  }
}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
