Bar scheduling

Built around your team

Keep late shifts clear

Bar schedules often cross normal office hours. The template keeps close shifts and weekend peaks explicit so managers can spot gaps before publishing.

  • Show late close coverage
  • Separate barback and bartender demand
  • Review weekend staffing by service period

Avoid availability surprises

Assign late and closing shifts to the people who can cover them. Create a CrewCentral account when you need employee availability and approved swaps alongside the roster.

  • Edit overnight shift times in the free tool
  • Check who can cover each role
  • Use an account for availability and employee swap requests
A few things to know

Got questions?

The editor is free to use without an account. Sign up when you want to save and publish with your team.

Can this handle late-night shifts?

Yes. You can add late and overnight shifts, including closing coverage. Review the hours and local rules before sharing the schedule.

What roles should a bar schedule include?

Common roles include bartender, barback, floor, door, glassie, and manager. Add only the roles your venue actually needs.

Can shift swaps be managed?

You can move and swap assignments in the free editor. Create a CrewCentral account to let employees request swaps and cover, review those requests, and publish the roster. The browser tool does not notify employees.
