30-Minute Restaurant Closing Checklist

by Robert Watlington, from the Community

Downloads: 0

This restaurant closing checklist standardizes the final 30 minutes before close to ensure a safe, clean, and secure shutdown. Tasks cover sandwich and cook stations powered down, ovens, fryers, grills, exhaust, steam table, and rice cooker off, and all food wrapped and properly stored. Verify coolers, freezers, and walk-in are working and fully closed, water lines shut off, and patio furniture secured. Complete deposits, place registers in the safe, turn off digital menu and music, switch lights off, lock doors, and capture manager sign-off.
