FOH
Great set up for lunch today, slightly reduced team on opening but it worked perfectly and everyone put effort in for the open. A very steady Monday, the sun came out so a handful of reservations moved their reservations and dined outside. We had 2 sections inisde, 1 out and Aleks was drinks running as she has lost her voice, staffing was perfect. Majority of reservations were in between 12:30-13:00 so there was a slight buzz around that time. Nice flows and last table left around 3:45 with an early finish for pastry at around T401 - walk in - Lovely man, lives in the strand but has never visited us and has been meaning too. He was very complimentary, especially about the Pork tonnato. He said now he knows how good we are he will be back regulary.
Events / Reservations
We picked up 11 walk ins which was great. A few tables were on the terrace.

A decent amount of covers, sadly not quite a match for last Monday. We opened a bottle of the Dirupi for the team to try as part of this week's focus on our red wine offering and they did well to sell it BTG as a special as we sold out half way through the service. Crab tagliatelle special also sold well. Quite a few tickets away towards the end of the pre-theatre but this was managed well by the kitchen team. It wasn't warm enough this evening to seat the terrace for dinner but a few tables joined us for drinks out there. The bar area also had some guests at the counter as well as tables which was made a nice atmosphere. May have to bare this in mind a little moving forward and revisit some counter/food training on the bar as a refresher. Overall a successful evening, shame to lose some covers. We will be calling and confirming large tables on the day moving forward - even if they're manually confirmed in system by the guest.
BOH
Today we saw the return of beetroots with stracciatelli, we also added the friggitelli peppers on the snacks and a new dessert, Marsala baked pear.
Events / Reservations
Big PT rush at 5.30pm, with the restaurant almost full by 6.30pm. Turns happened naturally and bookings were well spread across the restaurant. We had two no shows of 5 and 6, which was unfortunate but we managed to get in touch with both. Last tables were two walk ins just after 9pm. We had three large groups including a set menu from Deloitteof 14 dropped down to 11 on arrival. Great feedback on food. Notable Guests: Amy Baker (our Brindisa rep), Nadia (staff) as a walk in for drinks, Rachel Pitman (180 staff)
Beverage
Petit Chablis 86 Marsannay running low The feedback on the wine special was really good, guests loved it!

Revenue: Lightspeed net ex-VAT · lunch = tickets opening before 15:00.
Events: split from Lightspeed accounting groups (Food/Drinks/Wine Events, Event Hire), shown within each shift. Booking detail and budget from the events sheet.
Events pipeline: sheet cost column (ex-VAT where entered) summed by month vs FY budget — unpriced bookings excluded.
Covers: SevenRooms non-cancelled bookings. SPH = food/bev revenue ÷ covers.
Sales budget: current month pro-rated to today; complete months use full budget. Events budget: events sheet (fiscal year).
Revenue forecast: actual MTD + normal-day rate × remaining normal days + booked events. The normal-day rate is this month's actual non-event-day average, regularised toward the budget's normal-day rate early in the month (an ~8-day prior) so a strong or weak start does not swing the whole month; it converges to actuals as the month progresses. Whole-venue events (≥£15k) replace the day; bar events keep ~70% of a normal day alongside the event.
Profit: restaurant Net Profit & Trading EBITDA from the latest MI management reports; updates monthly as reports are issued.
Guest feedback: SevenRooms post-dining surveys · Google reviews via Google Business Profile API (all reviews, paginated).
