How to edit operating hours

Follow this guide to learn how to set your restaurant's regular weekly hours.  These do not include special hours or closures.  Setting operating hours lets Hostie know the opening and closing times of your business, which can then be used during conversations when needed. 

The steps in this guide are the same, whether you're on the Hostie dashboard for the web, the Hostie app for iPhone, or the Hostie app for iPad.
