Report: https://directindex.org/r/thebutcheryyeg.ca
Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The Butchery is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open The Butchery'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, through Tock.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.exploretock.com/rgerd (through tock acting for the business)
- Order directly: https://www.thebutcheryyeg.ca/preorders/ (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +1 780-443-0000
- Address: 107 Avenue NW 12229 T5M 3R2

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. 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
- **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.
