Business insurance

Insurance for Restaurants

A restaurant's risks run from the kitchen to the customer. Public liability covers a diner who slips, chokes or is injured, while product liability matters because food poisoning or an allergen mistake can become a serious claim. Add property and contents cover for the fit-out and equipment, business interruption for a fire or flood that closes the doors, glass cover, and workers' compensation for your kitchen and floor team. Fire and burns risk in a commercial kitchen makes property cover essential. With many policies renewing around 30 June, review your cover before the new financial year.

Common questions

Restaurants — insurance questions

What cover does a restaurant most need?

Public and product liability sit at the core — they respond to a customer injury or a food-safety incident like food poisoning or an allergen error. Add property, business interruption and workers' compensation, and you have the foundations most hospitality venues rely on.

Why is business interruption cover important for a venue?

Because a fire, flood or equipment failure can shut your doors for weeks. Business interruption cover helps replace lost income and cover ongoing costs like rent and wages while you are closed, which can be the difference between reopening and not.
