The Aldgate is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open The Aldgate's website. It can read what The Aldgate offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through resOS.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://the-aldgate-british-pub-1679733792.resos.com/booking (through resos acting for the business)
- Menu: https://www.the-aldgate.com/aldgate-menu-online-4/

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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 © 2021.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site.
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is.

## 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.
