Restaurants face unique risks every day, from customer liability to kitchen fires and employee injuries. PRK Insurance Agency, Inc. helps you compare coverage options and protect your business with confidence.
Restaurant insurance is a set of coverages designed to protect restaurants from common risks like customer injuries, property damage, equipment loss, employee injuries, and business interruption.
General liability helps protect your restaurant if a customer is injured, property is damaged, or a claim is made against your business. It can also help cover legal defense costs.
Property coverage can help protect your building or leased space, kitchen equipment, furniture, signage, and inventory after covered events like fire, theft, or certain storms.
Restaurants have higher injury exposure due to kitchens, hot surfaces, and fast pace work. Workers’ comp helps cover medical expenses and lost wages after a work related injury and may be required in New York.
Restaurants rely on refrigeration and equipment uptime. Optional coverages can help with losses from equipment breakdown, spoiled food, and interruption of operations after a covered claim.
If your restaurant serves alcohol, liquor liability coverage can help protect your business from certain alcohol related claims. Requirements may depend on your operations and licensing.
Restaurant coverage should match your real operations, staff, and daily risk.

Equipment breakdown coverage can help with repairs and certain losses when equipment fails due to mechanical or electrical issues, depending on policy terms.
Food spoilage coverage can help with the cost of spoiled inventory due to a covered event like equipment breakdown or power failure, depending on the policy.
If you serve alcohol, liquor liability coverage can help protect your business from certain alcohol related claims. Requirements depend on your operations and risk.
