The most common types of small bar insurance are Public Liability, Product Liability, and Business Interruptions which can cover your restaurant premises, your contents, any machinery and equipment breakdowns, business interruption, glass, and money (if cash is stolen, lost or damaged somehow).
You must have workers’ compensation insurance for anyone you employ at your small bar including full-time workers on a wage or salary, part-time, casual, and seasonal workers. This is one of the most important types of insurance restaurant businesses should invest in.
In the event you need to make a claim, get in touch with your Phoenix Insurance Broker and we’ll guide you from there. Remember that we work for you, not the insurance company.
