Site: https://www.princesscafe.ca/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/princesscafe.ca
Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Princess Cafe is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Princess Cafe'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
- Address: King Street North 46 N2J 2W8
- Hours, from OpenStreetMap: Mon closed; Tue–Thu 11:00–19:00; Fri–Sat 11:00–21:00; Sun 11:00–17:00

## 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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
