Report: https://directindex.org/r/socoffeegin.com
Scanned: 2026-10-20 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
SO Coffee & Gin is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open SO Coffee & Gin'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: 荔枝角道 Lai Chi Kok Road 221

## Nearby, also direct
Places near SO Coffee & Gin that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Café Sausalito (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/cafesausalitohk.com

## 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)
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Hong Kong, 34% of comparable sites declare one.

## 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.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "CafeOrCoffeeShop",
  "name": "SO Coffee & Gin",
  "url": "http://socoffeegin.com/",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "荔枝角道 Lai Chi Kok Road 221"
  },
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 22.3269294,
    "longitude": 114.1622922
  }
}
</script>
```

## 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.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
