Coverage
Restaurant general liability quotes
Third-party bodily injury and property damage for dining rooms, patios, delivery handoffs, and guest incidents.
Restaurant general liability helps address claims that a guest was injured or that a third party's property was damaged in connection with restaurant operations — slip-and-fall in the dining room, a hot-plate burn at the pass, or a patio chair that fails under ordinary use.
Food-service GL conversations also cover products/completed operations themes when a guest claims illness from food prepared on premises. Definitions and exclusions on the issued form control what attaches — not marketing adjectives on a web page.
We ask for seating capacity, liquor service (if any), delivery or catering off-site, and whether you use third-party delivery platforms. Those operations details change how underwriters read a restaurant GL submission.
If a product is outside our appetite or the markets we place, we may refer your request to a partner or affiliate agency or brokerage with your consent. That authorization lives on the quote form with privacy and terms on this domain.
Preparing a restaurant GL submission: legal entity name, concept (full-service, QSR, cafe, bar, food truck, catering), address in a service-area state, approximate sales, employee count, and an optional write-up of hours, seating, and guest flow.
Patio, valet, and live-music exposures belong in the description when they apply. Temporary outdoor seating should be called out rather than discovered later.
A quote is not a binder. Coverage exists only when a carrier issues confirmation according to its rules and the policy forms it issues.

This topic page is commercial restaurant and hospitality insurance only — no personal lines.
Exclusions and endorsements on issued forms control what attaches. Marketing copy on this page is not a policy.
If your operation spans multiple cities in a service-area state, submit the primary premises first and list other locations in the description.
Hood cleaning, server training, and delivery-radius notes appear on many restaurant applications — mention current posture briefly when known.
Venue certificate requirements and landlord insurance exhibits help some files; mention them when they exist.
Sales band is optional on our form, but industry/concept and required contact fields are not. Incomplete submissions delay review.
