# Coffee Block: Agent-Direct Score D (43.1%) Site: https://thecoffeeblock.co.uk Report: https://directindex.org/r/thecoffeeblock.co.uk Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Coffee Block is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open Coffee Block's website. What Coffee Block offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to Just Eat, a marketplace. ## Nearby, also direct Places near Coffee Block that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - B'spoke Coffee (1.9 km): https://directindex.org/r/bspokecoffeehouse.co.uk - Grounded MCR (3.6 km): https://directindex.org/r/groundedmcr.org ## 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 - **Ordering only through justeat.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps - **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to just-eat.co.uk, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript - **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. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Coffee Block > cafe or coffee shop (coffee shop) in Manchester cafes and bars. ## Book or order directly - Menu: https://www.just-eat.co.uk/restaurants-coffee-block-stockport/menu ## About - Website: https://thecoffeeblock.co.uk - This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models. ``` ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed. - **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response. ## Where it stands 770 of 1309 in Manchester cafes and bars.
