Case Study: Snakes & Lattes achieves an 8% labor cost reduction with 7shifts

How Snakes & Lattes Cut Their Restaurant Labor Cost by 8% with 7shifts

Snakes & Lattes, Toronto’s premier board game café with six locations, was losing time and money to manual spreadsheet scheduling, scattered communications, and inefficient manager processes. They needed a way to reduce overtime, simplify scheduling, and keep staff informed without juggling texts and emails.

By adopting 7shifts’ labor management platform—featuring a drag-and-drop schedule builder, mobile chat and Announcements, and a customizable Manager Dashboard/Log Book—they centralized scheduling and communication and began building labor-perfect schedules in minutes. In four months they cut labor cost percentage by 8%, increased sales per labor hour by 5.2%, now plan 25 events per month, average 4 shift swaps between employees, and save dozens of app chats each week.
