things to fix
Action test, 2026-10-15: partial, a path exists but an agent would struggle. There is a button or a form, but no complete booking or ordering flow an agent can finish on this page.
Provisional: the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
Since the scan of 2026-10-14: fixed Almost no text without JavaScript; No menu or price list; No llms.txt. new The site turned every visitor without a browser away.
A plain fetch was refused (challenge:access denied); 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. How to fix it
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

The links an assistant is sent when it books, orders or reads the menu for this business, where each leads, and when a browser last checked it. The same record is served as JSON at /api/direct/starbucks.com, through the MCP tool direct_record and in the city feed /city/london-cafes-bars/direct.json.

Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
