Insurance for diners and family restaurants.

Diners and family restaurants run high-volume breakfast and lunch service, a busy kitchen, and steady foot traffic. The risk is classic restaurant: premises, kitchen, staff, and equipment.

Diner and family restaurant insurance usually combines general liability, property and equipment, workers compensation, business income, and equipment breakdown, with liquor liability where the restaurant serves alcohol at brunch or dinner.

Volume and premises

High-traffic breakfast and lunch service means steady premises exposure, slips, spills, hot surfaces, and a busy kitchen. General liability and workers compensation form the base, and accurate class codes keep workers comp priced right.

Kitchen and equipment

A diner kitchen runs continuously, with griddles, fryers, and refrigeration that face fire and breakdown exposure. Property, equipment breakdown, and business income protect the operation and the revenue if a loss forces a closure.

Alcohol where it applies

Many family restaurants add beer, wine, or a brunch cocktail program, which brings liquor liability into the picture. Where alcohol is served, we make sure it is covered, since general liability generally excludes it.
