Every station stocked, sanitised and operationally ready before the first guest is seated.

Calibrate, clean and ready the espresso machine, grinder and milk station so the first order is as good as the last.

Verify every draught line is clean, pressurised and dispensing to temperature and quality standard before service.

Prepare the wine and champagne station to hold correct temperature, presentation and glassware from the first table order.

A structured briefing that aligns the team on priorities, availability, standards and commercial targets before every service.

Every classic built to a written specification — correct taste profile, presentation and portion, with zero recipe deviation.

Standards for pre-batching high-volume cocktails: consistency held, service time cut, waste from wrong preparation removed.

Consistent extraction, labelling and storage of fresh citrus and produce juice — quality, food safety and cost control together.

Standardise every house syrup, infusion and shrub for consistent Brix, shelf life, flavour profile and food safety compliance.

Alcohol service that meets licensing law and a clear protocol for the bartender when a guest shows signs of intoxication.

Every beverage in its designated glass, so aroma, presentation and temperature integrity carry the brand standard.

Spotless, streak-free glassware for every service, held to one polishing and inspection standard.

An immediate, safe response to glass breakage at or near the bar — injury, contamination and service disruption prevented.

Accurate glass counts, tracked breakage rates and timely replacement, so service is never interrupted by a shortage.

Consistently sized, clear specialty ice — spheres, large cubes, shaved — to the visual and dilution standard premium service needs.

Structured daily cleaning at defined intervals so the bar stays hygienic, presentable and food-safe through every service period.

A full deep clean of every bar area, machine and store — buildup gone, hygiene held, equipment life extended.

A regular chemical cleaning cycle that prevents the yeast, bacteria and mould behind off-flavours, cloudiness and health risk.

Wash, rinse and store glassware to a standard that keeps residue and taste interference out of every drink served.

Leave every station in a condition where the opening team starts service with no remedial cleaning, restocking or prep.

Accurate accounting of cash, card and voids at the close of every service, with zero unauthorised discrepancies.

Power down, clean and store all operational equipment safely and to manufacturer guidelines at the end of each service period.

Every garnish, prep and perishable evaluated, stored or discarded at close — FIFO held, food safety risk removed.

Complete transfer of operational information between closing and opening teams, so no information gap becomes a service failure.

An accurate weekly count of every spirit, wine, beer and soft drink — precise beverage cost and variance you can see.

Optimal stock across every category on a defined PAR system that prevents the stockout and the over-order alike.

Capture every loss — spillage, spoilage, over-pour, breakage, expiry — in a daily log that makes cost accurate and loss reducible.

Use every item in the correct first-in, first-out sequence to prevent expiry, maintain freshness and protect product quality.

A full monthly audit of stock, equipment and supplies, reconciled against finance, with variance identified and PAR levels validated.

One authorised, documented route for every beverage order — no unauthorised spend, no duplicate order, no stock imbalance.

Professional standards for supplier relationships and pricing talks, and value taken through volume commitments and trade agreements.

A fast, controlled process for sourcing unavailable items when the weekly ordering cycle cannot meet an urgent need.

Event, group and activation beverage ordered accurately and in advance, so the highest-profile night is never the one that runs dry.

A structured approval for every new listing: financial viability proven, team trained, supplier compliance intact before launch.

Every delivery received, inspected, verified and documented — financial loss, quality failure and inventory drift caught at the door.

Inspection standards for wine and sparkling: temperature integrity, label accuracy and bottle condition verified before acceptance.

Every keg inspected for integrity, weight and temperature compliance before it is accepted and staged into the cellar.

Soft drinks, mixers, juices and syrups received in the right condition, quantity and freshness to hold service quality.

Identify, document and resolve every gap between invoice and delivery, so the business never pays for what did not arrive.

The coordinated response to fire or alarm activation, with guests, colleagues and property protected in that order.

The immediate response to a guest collapse, allergic reaction, choking, cardiac arrest or injury — harm minimised, emergency services supported.

A clear, safe protocol for aggressive or disruptive guest behaviour that does not escalate the conflict or put the team at risk.

An immediate, decisive response to suspected contamination that protects guest health, preserves evidence and enables investigation.
