# Royal Bengal: Agent-Direct Score D (49.7%) Site: https://royalbengaluk.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/royalbengaluk.com Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Royal Bengal is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Royal Bengal's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through images.samsung.com. ## Direct links - Phone: 020 3345 6661 - Address: 104 Whitechapel Rd, E1 1JE, London - Prices: 4 prices on the site, the middle one £32.27 - Languages: English, Thai ## Nearby, also direct Places near Royal Bengal that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Tayyabs (90 m): https://directindex.org/r/tayyabs.co.uk - Club Coffee (150 m): https://directindex.org/r/clubcoffeelondon.co.uk - Needoo Grill (150 m): https://directindex.org/r/needoogrill.co.uk - Sonargaon (150 m): https://directindex.org/r/sonargaonwhitechapel.co.uk - Baraka Eatery (160 m): https://directindex.org/r/barakaeatery.co.uk ## What to fix first - **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps - **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 - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **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.

Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Royal Bengal > organization in 104 Whitechapel Rd, E1 1JE, London, London.
