# Parlour: Agent-Direct Score D (52.3%)

Site: https://www.qthotels.com/sydney-cbd/eat-drink/parlour/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/qthotels.com
Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Parlour is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Parlour, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (challenge:attention required); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as HTML, keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Structured data present (Restaurant).** address, phone
- **Booking through zenoti on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without a marketplace in the loop.
