After the top fixes

With the two fixes above (The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included; Structured data is incomplete), the score would be about 95.4%. That would be 2nd of 292 in Baltimore cafes and bars, up from 144th.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included +25 points

    A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. How to fix it

  2. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

  3. The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data

    The site shows +14105555555, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +1 410-752-1784. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.
