Your restaurant briefing is more than a meeting. It should be conducted before a service. It can make your team happier, more confident and your restaurant run smoother.
Your briefing at your restaurant should include:
- Number of bookings
- Assignment of tasks, sections
- VIP/Special Guests
- Group bookings
- Special dietary needs
- Food & Drink Specials
- Non available items
- Praise and constructive feedback
- Short Training (Service etiquette/beverage/food knowledge)
Briefings should be consistent and no longer than 12-15 minutes. Team briefings will motivate your team, set them and your business up for success in the shift ahead.
