    WHAT IT COVERS

    Where restaurant claims actually come from

    Kitchen fire gets the attention. Slips, spoilage, and employee injury drive the loss runs.

    01

    Property and contents

    Build-out, kitchen equipment, and tenant improvements — usually the largest single value on the schedule.

    02

    General liability

    Guest injury and third-party property damage, including the slip-and-fall claims that dominate frequency.

    03

    Workers’ compensation

    Burns, cuts, and back injuries. Rated on payroll, and the line most affected by turnover.

    04

    Liquor liability

    Required once you serve. Beer-and-wine and full-bar operations underwrite very differently.

    WHAT IT IS

    The lease usually writes the policy

    For most restaurant accounts the coverage requirements are set by the lease, not by the operator. Limits, additional insured status for the landlord, and waiver of subrogation are all negotiated before you open.

    Bring us the lease and the menu. Those two documents determine more about placement than the square footage does.

    Spoilage and equipment breakdown are the two endorsements operators most often discover they did not have.

    HOW WE WORK

    Three steps, no instant-bind theater

    01

    Tell us the job

    Operations, payroll, vehicles, contracts, or project value — whatever applies.

    02

    Review the structure

    Limits, deductibles, exclusions, and what sits outside the policy.

    03

    Bind and issue

    Choose coverage. Get policy documents and COIs once the carrier binds.
