Free templatesThe end of night report checklist for your trade
Eight free, fillable PDFs, one per trade — 17 to 20 real text-box and checkbox fields each, researched from real UK closing procedures (kitchen closedown, cellar management, hotel night audits, nightlife security), not a generic form. Every field title and checkbox label is editable too, not just the boxes next to them — rename anything to match how your venue actually talks. Type straight in on screen, or print and fill by hand. Every one ends with a dedicated Handover to the Next Manager section, because the point isn't just closing tonight — it's making sure tomorrow's manager isn't starting from zero.

The Restaurant End of Night Report Template
Food is the business, so Kitchen & Food Safety carries the most weight — fridge temperatures, FIFO labelling and sanitising are standard UK kitchen closedown practice, not an EON invention. Front of House covers the dining room. Security isn't included, since most restaurants close earlier and don't carry a bar's end-of-night cash and door risk.

The Bar / Pub End of Night Report Template
Cellar & Bar replaces Kitchen & Food Safety — float counts, line cleaning and ice well hygiene are the real nightly risks in a UK bar, drawn from standard cellar closedown and till reconciliation practice. Security covers the door and the walkround most late licences expect.

The Cafe / Coffee shop End of Night Report Template
A lighter template for a shorter trading day: Kitchen & Food Safety and Front of House are in, but Security and Guest Experience are left out by default since they rarely apply to daytime counter service. Covers becomes "Transactions."

The Hotel End of Night Report Template
Guest Experience and Rooms & Maintenance replace Kitchen & Food Safety — a hotel's nightly story is about rooms, requests and anything that broke, not food cost. Security reflects overnight occupancy. Covers becomes "Guests in house," matching standard night audit terminology.

The Nightclub End of Night Report Template
Security carries this template, grounded in standard nightlife safety guidance — a full walkround, fire exits and an incident log are non-negotiable at this volume and hour. Kitchen and Health & Safety are dropped since food isn't the core business. Covers becomes "Admissions."

The Quick service / Takeaway End of Night Report Template
The lightest template: Kitchen & Food Safety, nothing else — high volume, fast turnover, no dining room and no cellar to manage.

The Catering End of Night Report Template
Stock and Front of House replace Kitchen & Food Safety's fixed-site checks — a catering operation's nightly concern is what's left for tomorrow's job, what came in, and the state of the event space.

The Bakery End of Night Report Template
No Covers section — a bakery's day isn't measured in covers. Kitchen & Food Safety and Stock carry the template instead, since unsold product, deliveries and food safety are the real story each day.
