things to fix

Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.

Since the scan of 2026-10-14: no change in the findings.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. No structured data for the business +15 points

    Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  2. No booking or ordering path at all +15 points

    Agents have nothing to act on. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  3. Menu or price list lives on another site +5 points

    The link points to paddymacs.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. How to fix it

  4. No working HTTPS +3 points

    The page is only served over plain http. Agents and browsers downrank or refuse it.

  5. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing

    Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it
