Made for FOH, BOH, and everyone in between
Assign morning prep, lunch rush, dinner service, and late-night cleanup in the same grid. Each employee gets an auto-assigned color so you can scan coverage across the week at a glance — no more squinting at a Google Sheets grid at 11pm on Sunday.
Catch overtime before it hits payroll
Restaurant margins are thin. ShiftCraft adds up each employee's weekly hours in real time and flags anyone over 40 hours in red. Trim shifts, swap sections, and republish the schedule in minutes — without ever leaving the tool.
Share with your team, the easy way
Print a copy for the bulletin board, PDF it into the team group chat, or copy a live link. Your staff can open the link on their phone and see the whole week — no install, no signup, no learning curve.
Shift templates for the patterns you already run
Morning prep (6am–2pm), Day (9am–5pm), Evening service (2pm–10pm), Close (10pm–6am). One click fills the modal with the right times. Override the end time when a banquet runs late — the duration updates instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is ShiftCraft really free for restaurants?+
Yes. You can manage any number of employees and weeks without paying a cent. We keep the tool free with a few unobtrusive display ads.
Can I schedule servers and kitchen staff in one grid?+
Absolutely — add them as employees, assign different roles (Server, Line Cook, Prep), and color-code however you like.
Will my schedule save when I come back next week?+
Yes. Your schedule is stored in your browser's localStorage and restored automatically the next time you open ShiftCraft.
Can I print the schedule for the back-of-house board?+
One click. Print gives you a clean, readable sheet formatted to A4 or letter — no ads, no colors that bleed.
Does it handle split or overnight shifts?+
Yes. If the end time is earlier than the start time (e.g. 10pm–6am), ShiftCraft automatically counts the shift as overnight.
