things to fix
Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
What to fix first
- Almost no text without JavaScript
Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. How to fix it
- No structured data for the business
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type) with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations for a restaurant. It is the one block every assistant reads first. How to fix it
- No menu or price list found
Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. How to fix it
- No booking or ordering path at all
Agents have nothing to act on. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Cork cafes and bars. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.

What assistants answer
Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.
Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
