The Restaurant Manager's Handbook: How to Set Up, Operate, and Manage a Financially Successful Food Service Operation Hardcover – October 4, 2019

Worth every dollar. A lot of info

Wonderfully compendious!!!

Restaurant managers Bible. Everything you need to know in one place.

The book is well-written and explores a range of subjects, but it doesn't meet my specific needs or expectations.

We are opening a coffee and tea house at the end of this year. I do know alot about being in business, but the restaurant industry is a whole different issue. Know matter what you THINK you know, trust me there is a whole lot more to learn. This book has it all. It's like going back to school and having the best teacher in the world. Douglas Brown has obviously been in the trenches. From costing to the great forms contained in it, I can't say enough good things about this book. If you are going to buy one book (I bought dozens before I finally coughed up the bucks for it)this is the one you should own, read, study and love!

".....This manual will arm you with the right information.Keep it on your desk for constant reference.The many valuable forms contained in this work are available on the companion CD-ROM.There is no other publication as comprehensive as The Restaurant Manager's Handbook.This book TRULY IS APPROPRIATELY TITLED."[from the book of the introduction by Douglas R. Brown]

Without question this is the most thorough and comprehensive "how to" book I have ever encountered. From registering a trade name to employee manuals to cost and theft control, Mr Brown has outdone himself.The book not only provides in depth and thourough explanations, it allows for quick reference on any given area of the business and much of the material can be applied to ANY business, not just restaurants. Unlike many "how to" books, Mr Brown has managed to make his volume easy and pleasurable to read without being droll, stodgy or just filling extra pages with unnecessary verbiage. His ability to stay current with the changing times in the industry, as well as see and plan for the future, makes his book a valuble investment for today and the years ahead.Mr. Browns Restaurant Managers Handbook is a must read for those just starting up and a must have for those that want to continue to survive in this ever changing world of the culinary arts.

Doug Brown's Handbook is a must-have for all restaurant managers and prospective owners. I wish I'd had this when I first started out, but you can be sure it will be required reading for all my managers!Ordering directly from his Atlantic Publishing Group is the way to go - it arrived quickly and in perfect condition.Thanks, Doug.
