Restaurant Insurance FAQ
What insurance do I need for my restaurant in Florida?
At minimum, you need general liability, workers compensation, and commercial property. Most restaurants benefit from a Business Owners Policy (BOP) which bundles property and liability. If you serve alcohol, you also need liquor liability. Many landlords require proof of insurance before leasing space.
Does restaurant insurance cover food spoilage?
Yes, many commercial property policies cover food spoilage caused by power outages or equipment breakdown. However, standard policies may have limits. Consider adding equipment breakdown coverage for your walk-in coolers, freezers, and HVAC systems.
How much does restaurant insurance cost?
Costs vary based on your type of restaurant, number of employees, revenue, and coverage needs. Most small restaurants pay $3,000-8,000/year. Full-service restaurants with alcohol typically pay more. We shop multiple carriers to find competitive rates.
Do I need liquor liability if I only serve beer and wine?
Yes. Liquor liability is required anytime you serve alcoholic beverages — beer, wine, or spirits. It protects you from liability if an intoxicated patron causes injury or property damage after leaving your restaurant. Many insurance companies won't write restaurant policies without liquor liability if you serve any alcohol.
