Make your opening and closing checklist
Adjust the example tasks, add your own and print the opening and closing checklists for your venue.
- Walk through the example tasks: change what works differently in your venue, drop what doesn't apply.
- Add your own tasks and sections, for the bar, the terrace or the office.
- Hit print or save it as a PDF, and hang the opening list by the door and the closing list by the till.
Free and no account needed: what you fill in stays in your own browser and is never sent to us.
One thing this print can't do: keep track of whether it actually gets signed off. Want to tick off the same lists on a phone, with a name and time recorded automatically and a history ready for an inspection? Then take a look at moonies HACCP.
Also handy for the wall: make your free allergen chart.
Opening checklist
The tasks the day starts with. Whoever opens walks this list and signs it off.
Closing checklist
The mirror image of opening: leave the venue so the next shift can start right away.
This is what your lists look like
- Check and record fridge and freezer temperatures
- Check use-by dates, move what must go today to the front
- Prep check: what's left, what needs to be made today
- Set up workstations and switch on equipment
- Check deliveries and store chilled goods right away
- Walk the room: lighting, music, toilets clean and stocked
- Set up tables and terrace to the standard layout
- Open the till: count the float and record the opening balance
- Flush the coffee machine and the tap
- Go through reservations and the handover
Tick each task the moment you do it, not afterwards.

In moonies this list doesn't hang on the wall
A paper list can go missing and doesn't say who did what, when. In moonies HACCP you tick off the same lists per shift on a phone, with a time and name recorded automatically, and the mandatory records like temperatures are part of the same list.
