Built for the rhythm of pub service
The operational reality
Modern pubs are more than bars.
Many combine food service, gaming, functions, accommodation, beer gardens, bottle shops, live entertainment, and late-night trade. The work happens quickly, across multiple staff groups, often under pressure.
When tasks live in memory, paper, group chats, or verbal instructions, the same issues keep appearing: missed cleaning checks, unclear handovers, slow maintenance follow-up, and equipment problems discovered too late.

How it works
How PublicanOps works for pubs
PublicanOps gives pub teams a live Daily Run for each shift. Staff see the work relevant to their role and area, managers see what has been completed, and issues can be flagged before they become service problems. If a tap needs attention, a check is missed, or a cool room has a temperature issue, PublicanOps captures it and puts it in front of the right person.
