Dayswaps
Shift scheduling for restaurants — kitchen and floor

One rota for kitchen, floor and part-timers — no more notes on the board

A full-time cook, a server on shifts, a part-timer just for weekends — three different rhythms, one rota. Dayswaps schedules every position in the restaurant at once, suggests the legally required break for a long evening shift on its own, and keeps track of how many hours a part-time student is allowed to work.

What is shift scheduling for a restaurant?

Shift scheduling for a restaurant means bringing separate positions (kitchen, floor, bar) into one rota, planning around part-timers for weekend rushes, and keeping the legally required breaks on long shifts — not just writing hours on a board.

How much does restaurant shift-scheduling software cost?

The Basic plan works out at €1.54 per user a month with the discount on annual billing, with the AI assistant included from the first cent. For a restaurant with several positions (kitchen, floor, bar) we'd recommend the Complete plan — we'll work out a price tailored to you at the demo.

AI + Human

Pull the offer, keep the shift

“Pull the offer for Saturday service.” The assistant cancels the offer without touching the shift itself. You fill it yourself, when you know who from the kitchen can step in — the shift stays in the schedule, the team just stops competing for it.

From the Complete plan up you can also ask for a custom report to download — “How many weekend hours did each employee work last quarter?” — and the file arrives right in the reply.

The AI Assistant is part of every plan.

Restaurant shift scheduling questions

Can the system keep kitchen and floor positions separate in one rota?

Yes, each position has its own template and staffing is planned separately.

How do we handle part-timers for weekend rushes?

Through availability and the shift exchange — a part-timer enters when they can work, and you schedule around that.

Does the system watch breaks during a long shift?

Yes, automatically, according to labor law.
