What the hell are you doing wrong that bar closed owns are taking 3 hours?

Outside of crazy nights a 1 hour closedown is the standard?

How bigs the bar? Are you alone? Are you required to prep for the openers? Did someone throw up on the walls? Do you have to count inventory by hand every night?

I did at the crazy night bars

Alone, prepping after close and counting inventory every night (other than say a 10 item key line) is all stupid. Unless you're tiny it's never a best practice to close alone, prep work should be the time when you're open and less busy which is almost always the daytime and counting stock should be a weekly managerial job unless like I said it recording house vodka, tequila etc and then takes 10 minutes, not an actual stocktake.

Cleaning sick off the walls is standard fair, though you should do that when it happens, not after

Yeah I'm out of the industry now but the college bars were fuckin tough. Was much happier in the fine dining where yeah close was 1 hour max
