# Northern Soul Chip Shop: Agent-Direct Score C (69.2%)

Site: https://www.northernsoulchipshop.com
Report: https://directindex.org/r/northernsoulchipshop.com
Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Northern Soul Chip Shop is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Northern Soul Chip Shop'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 Square.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://northern-soul-online-ordering.square.site/#most-popular (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: 0421 825 092

## 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.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript

## 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.

## 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 (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **Ordering through square on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
