## Direct links
- Menu: https://theanglers.ie/menus/
- Phone: +35321-235-5699

## What to fix first
- **Booking through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "BarOrPub",
  "name": "The Angler's",
  "url": "https://theanglers.ie/",
  "telephone": "+35321-235-5699",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 51.8974791,
    "longitude": -8.5688221
  },
  "hasMenu": "https://theanglers.ie/menus/"
}
</script>
```
