There are a number of daily tasks that teams are required to perform in order to keep your restaurant running smoothly, including opening and closing duties and cleaning.
Unfortunately, things like dinner rushes and simple forgetfulness can cause teams to neglect these tasks - resulting in problems that can impact customer experience. Not refilling the roll-ups or water jugs in the morning can lead to an ongoing scramble for staff to stay on top of it throughout the day. Forgetting to check on cleanliness can lead to messy restrooms that are off putting to customers, leaving them to wonder how clean the kitchen is.
(This blog is part one of a three-part series on improving your restaurant operations.)
