Insurance for restaurants & bars

Full service, quick service, food trucks, and bars — including liquor liability.

Usually needed
Business owner's policy, workers' compensation, liquor liability if you serve alcohol, and equipment breakdown.
Where claims come from
Kitchen fires, walk-in cooler failures that spoil inventory, slip-and-falls in the dining room, and burns and cuts on the line.
Watch out for
Food spoilage is often a small sublimit that doesn't cover a full walk-in. Check the number before the compressor fails, not after.
Also relevant
If you serve alcohol, dram shop exposure in Texas is real and general liability excludes it. Liquor liability is a separate coverage.
