This opening operations checklist is designed for cafes and coffee shops to ensure a smooth start to each day. It guides teams through safety and hygiene checks, store presentation, licensing display, signage, POS readiness, and restroom upkeep. Service standards include uniform and appearance, customer greetings, staffing deployment, order aggregator device readiness, timely order acceptance, and maintenance of operational logs like inventory and attendance. Coffee excellence covers machine function, clean grinders, milk temperature control with thermometers, shelf-life labeling, and routine calibration by baristas. Use it to capture photos, notes, and corrective actions, assign tasks with priorities and due dates, and complete audits with digital signatures for consistent, compliant operations.
