# The Burly Barbershop: Agent-Direct Score B (73.8%)

Site: http://theburlybarbershop.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/theburlybarbershop.com
Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The Burly Barbershop is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open The Burly Barbershop's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.theburlybarbershop.com/appointments (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://book.squareup.com/appointments/rxly0k4w4gy6aw/location/LAP33JX9X66J2/services (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: +14158467627
- Address: 7331 Gaston Ave 175 Suite 117, Dallas 75214

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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

## 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.
