A daily closing checklist for front of house managers and closing servers to secure the dining room after the last guest departs. Covers the end-of-service sequence — guest area cleanup, table resetting for next day, POS closeout and cash reconciliation, restroom final check, bar lockup, security walkthrough, and systems shutdown.

A thorough closing sets up the next day's opening for success. Skipping closing tasks creates compounding problems — sticky floors, depleted supplies, unreconciled tills — that the morning team inherits. This checklist ensures nothing is left undone.
