Every service goes better when opening is done the same way every day. This restaurant opening checklist covers the kitchen, dining room, bar and pre-shift meeting, ready for staff to tick off each morning.
Temperature checks and food safety first, then equipment, prep, dining room setup, the bar and a short pre-shift meeting. Logging fridge temperatures daily also helps at health inspections.
How can staff share the same opening checklist?
Save it once in Checklist: Reusable Lists and start a fresh copy each morning. With Checklist Pro, a live shared copy lets the whole opening team check off items on their own phones.
