## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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
- **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
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 0161%20973%204719, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +441619734719. 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.

## 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.

```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Booking through thefork on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **TheFork works with agents through its partners.** TheFork's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; TheFork integrated OpenAI's Operator agent for UK bookings in February 2025 and is a named Google AI Mode booking partner. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://itbrief.co.uk/story/thefork-integrates-openai-s-operator-for-uk-bookings. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
