What to fix first
- No structured data for the business +14 points
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
- Menu or price list is on another site +5 points
The link goes to mightylocal.co.uk, so that site gets the credit and the visits. How to fix it
- Ordering through an unrecognised third party +5 points
Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. How to fix it
- No working HTTPS +3 points
The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- 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. How to fix it
- The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data
The site shows 01706 395743, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists 01706 558284. 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.

Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- AI crawlers get the page GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- Booking through opentable on your own domain There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- OpenTable works with agents through its partners OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
