The shift runs on memory
- Managers chase incomplete checklists
- Counts and orders drift between sheets
- Important handoffs get buried in chat
- The schedule is a screenshot in the group chat
- Owners hear about issues too late

Less chasing. More knowing.
Your operation shouldn't live in five different places.
Paper lists disappear. Spreadsheets fall behind. Group chats bury the one update everyone needed. Barley gives the day a shared, visible system without making the work feel heavier.
Everyone sees the next right thing
- Clear work by role, section, and shift
- Live inventory and operational status
- Structured messages and acknowledgements
- Published schedules, time off, and shift swaps in one place
- One view across every location
Built around real restaurant work
The tools your shift needs. None of the noise it doesn't.
Practical workflows for the floor, the bar, the kitchen, and the people responsible for keeping it all moving.
Tasks that actually get done
Build role-based lists — one-off or repeating — require a photo where proof matters, and give every shift a clear finish line.
Learn moreSchedules your team can actually see
Build the week, post open shifts, copy last week, and publish. Staff see their shifts on their phone and request time off or a swap for a manager to approve.
Learn moreA time clock that knows who's really there
Staff clock in on their own phone by scanning the station's rotating code and taking a quick photo. Breaks are tracked, and approved timesheets export as a CSV for payroll.
Learn moreInventory without the spreadsheet chase
Count stock by location, scan barcodes, and prepare restocking orders — plus a waste log that adjusts the count the moment a manager approves it.
Learn moreFood-safety checks in the flow
Guide teams through temperature rounds and keep a reliable history managers can review.
Learn moreCleaner manager handoffs
Send a message and see exactly who's read it — notes, acknowledgements, and follow-ups, all in one shared place.
Recipes your team can trust
Keep food and drink recipes consistent, and let anyone on the floor check a dish for allergens in one search — not just the one person who memorized it.
Learn moreThe floor, at a glance
Create practical floorplans, track live table status, and combine tables on the fly when a big party walks in.
Not just bar, kitchen, and servers
Add tasks, recipes, inventory, or a prep list to any area — then build a new one for Pastry, Patio, or whatever your floor actually runs.
Tip-outs and certifications, handled
Calculate tip-outs with your restaurant's own formula instead of a spreadsheet, and track who's certified for what with a reminder before anything lapses.
Learn moreA plan for the day something breaks
Log a repair with the vendor already on file, or open a ready-made playbook for a POS outage, a power cut, or a walk-in that's failing.
In your team's language
Barley's screens come in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, and Japanese. Each person picks their own language without changing anyone else's.
Right-sized from day one
Start with one restaurant. Stay consistent as you grow.
Barley keeps the experience straightforward for the person completing a task and gives leadership the control to standardize what matters.
For independent restaurants
Replace paper and scattered tools with a simple daily operating system your team can learn quickly.
For multi-location operators
Standardize workflows while keeping inventory, staffing, settings, and visibility connected to each location.
A calmer way to get running
From scattered process to shared rhythm.

Common questions
A few things to know before we talk.
Is Barley only for multi-location groups?
No. Barley gives a single restaurant a calmer way to run the day, while giving growing groups the location controls and visibility they need to stay consistent.
Does Barley replace our POS?
Barley is focused on restaurant operations: tasks, scheduling and the time clock, inventory, food-safety checks, recipes, staff coordination, floorplans, and management oversight. It is not positioned as a POS or payroll replacement.
Does Barley handle scheduling and the time clock?
Yes. Managers build and publish the schedule, staff request time off and shift swaps from their phone, and everyone clocks in against a clock station at the restaurant. Managers approve timesheets and export them as a CSV for payroll — Barley doesn't run payroll itself.
Can my team use Barley in their own language?
Yes. Barley's screens are available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, and Japanese, and each person can switch without changing it for anyone else. The tasks, recipes, and notes your managers write stay as written.
How do staff members sign in?
Restaurant staff use a fast, tenant-specific PIN login. Owners and platform administrators use a separate secure account experience.
How much does it cost?
See current plans and start a free trial on our pricing page. Larger, multi-location groups can also talk to sales for a tailored setup.
What if my restaurant doesn't fit Bar, Kitchen, and Servers?
No two restaurants are laid out the same way. Bar, Kitchen, and Servers are just a starting point — add a new area for Pastry, Patio, or anything else your floor runs, and turn on exactly the tools it needs.
How do you handle staff certifications and compliance?
Barley tracks who's certified for what, flags anything expiring soon, and keeps the paperwork attached — so nothing lapses quietly between audits.
