Findings

What to fix first

  1. Structured data is incomplete +3 points

    Missing: opening hours. How to fix it

  2. The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data

    The site shows 0444512871, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +61482624634. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.
