Olney Restaurant Morning Walkthrough Checklist

by Christopher Winkles, from the Community

This restaurant morning walkthrough checklist helps managers and crews verify opening readiness across dining room, make table, oven area, waitress hallway, back kitchen, dish room, walk in cooler, and bathrooms. It prompts cleaning and sanitizing tasks, checks that trash is emptied, utensils and equipment are cleaned and stored, carts and salad bar areas are free of food residue, and all supplies are put away safely. Temperature control fields capture walk in, make table, and drink cooler readings. Use it to standardize FOH and BOH routines, maintain cleanliness, support food safety, and prepare the restaurant for service.
