# Small Talk: Agent-Direct Score D (52.3%)

Site: http://www.smalltalkamsterdam.nl
Report: https://directindex.org/r/smalltalkamsterdam.nl
Scanned: 2026-10-22 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Small Talk is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Small Talk's website. It can read what Small Talk offers. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: http://www.smalltalkamsterdam.nl/reserveren/ (on the business's own site)
- Menu: http://www.smalltalkamsterdam.nl/restaurant-menu/
- Address: Van Baerlestraat 52 1071BA Amsterdam
- Outdoor seating (OpenStreetMap)
- Languages: English, Dutch

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Small Talk that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Pompa Pasta Bar (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/restaurantpompa.nl
- Ottolenghi (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/ottolenghi.co.uk
- Sushi Daily Museumplein (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/ah.nl
- Brasserie Keyzer (140 m): https://directindex.org/r/brasseriekeyzer.nl
- Restaurant CHANG-i (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/chang-i.nl

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User.** (+10 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2016.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Amsterdam, 76% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
