For Restaurants and cafés · 1 of 32
AI prompts for Restaurants and cafés, by the job.
A kitchen runs on short messages between busy people: menu copy, event quotes, schedule notes, and the reply to the review that landed at 11pm. These prompts turn rough notes into something a team can act on between services. Allergen and food-safety questions go to the kitchen and your own procedures, never to a draft.

Answering an allergen question safely
A customer asks whether a dish is free from something and you are not the person who can confirm it.
Write a first draft for this job: Answering an allergen question safely. The situation: A customer asks whether a dish is free from something and you are not the person who can confirm it. Use only the facts I give you: [ALLERGEN QUESTION], [DISH], [ALLERGENS]. Keep it under 120 words. Do not invent a price, a time, a name, a promise, or a detail I have not supplied. Ask me for anything missing rather than filling it in. Finish with "Assumptions to confirm" so I can correct what you inferred.
