Owlbear Barbecue is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Owlbear Barbecue's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It can't find a link to book or order online.

## Direct links
- Phone: 17206671181
- Address: 2826 Larimer St, 80205-2223, Denver
- Prices: 34 prices on the site, the middle one $10.00

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Owlbear Barbecue that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Pit Fiend Barbecue (10 m): https://directindex.org/r/pitfiendbbq.com

## What to fix first
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. 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 on your own domain. 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
- **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
- **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)
- **34 prices on the landing page, the middle one $10.00.**
