    Food poisoning is a real worry for cafes and restaurants, so adequate cover is integral to protect you from significant reparations
  • Hygiene and hazardous chemicals
    Restaurants often have potentially dangerous cleaning chemicals on site, so these need to be properly stored to avoid danger
  • Kitchen-related injuries
    Dealing with hot food equipment, like deep fryers for example, can result in burns. Your staff must be protected financially if they cannot work due to such an injury.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT RESTAURANT INSURANCE

    • What is restaurant insurance?
      Restaurant insurance is designed to protect people and businesses who own a restaurant, bar, bistro, public house, guest house, cafe, hotel, or takeaway outlet. Restaurant insurance policies will vary from one insurer to the other, and policies will also differ depending on the requirement and the type of establishment you are running.
    • What features will be included in my restaurant insurance policy?
      Normally your restaurant insurance policy will include the following: liquor liability, business interruption insurance, contents insurance, and public liability insurance. You can check details of the policy with the insurance provider.
    • We have a children’s play area in our restaurant, will this be covered by a restaurant insurance policy?
      Yes, you should find that this will indeed be covered by a restaurant insurance policy. It would be a good idea to check however in case any extra cover is indeed required. If you wish to include a children’s play area, and you are unsure whether your insurer will cover you, then simply get in touch with them via email or, if you prefer, over the phone.
    • We have tables outside our restaurant, will this affect the policy?
      Most restaurant insurance companies will not see this as an issue, and will therefore provide cover for your tables outside. If you are at all unsure however, then it may be a good idea to contact your restaurant insurance provider in order to check.
