Multi-Location Restaurant Schedule Template.xlsx
When you're running multiple stores, the same employee can easily end up on two schedules at once—especially if managers aren't checking in with each other. This template automatically flags when someone is scheduled at two locations simultaneously, or when back-to-back shifts don't leave enough travel time between stores. You'll catch the problem before your phone starts blowing up.

Most schedule templates show you who's working—but they don't show you what it's costing. This template connects shift assignments to pay rates and projected sales, so you can see your estimated labor percentage before you publish. See weekly and daily views of where each location stands against budget.

“It is SO easy to use. It is intimidating at first familiarizing yourself with the platform but after a few minutes it feels so natural using it. I used to do all of my scheduling on an excel spreadsheet. It would take two or three times as long as it takes me now on 7shifts.”

“I was originally drawn to 7shifts because of their simple and easy interface for scheduling, but when I found out they also did payroll, it was a no-brainer. My employees onboarded via the 7shifts mobile app in 10 minutes and I'm already saving hours of time when it comes to processing payroll. Total game changer.”

“If you're a restaurant professional, this is a mandate. If this is a hobby for you, by all means, use something else. Use Excel, use post-it notes if you write it down. But if you're a professional and this is your career and your actual goal is to earn profit for your business, then there's no viable solution or anything that would make sense other than this. There just isn't.”
