Hospitality Insurance in Florida

Restaurants, bars, caterers, and event venues operate in one of the highest-liability industries there is — food, alcohol, customers on premises, and a workforce on the move. Gateway Insurance Associates builds commercial coverage that protects your operation from the front door to the back of the house.

Coverage Built for Restaurants, Bars & Venues

  • General Liability Insurance — Coverage for slip-and-fall, foodborne illness, and other third-party claims.
  • Liquor Liability Insurance — Protection for businesses that serve, sell, or manufacture alcohol — required by most Florida landlords and lenders.
  • Commercial Property Insurance — Building, equipment, inventory, and tenant improvement coverage.
  • Business Interruption Insurance — Replaces lost income when a covered loss forces you to close.
  • Workers’ Compensation — Required coverage for kitchen, bar, and front-of-house employee injuries.
  • Commercial Auto Insurance — For catering vans, delivery vehicles, and shuttle service.
  • Cyber Liability Insurance — Protection against POS system breaches and customer payment data exposure.

Why Work With an Independent Agency?

Hospitality coverage isn’t one-size-fits-all. A fine-dining restaurant has very different exposure than a sports bar or a catering company. Gateway Insurance Associates is independent — we compare programs from multiple commercial carriers and find the policy package that fits your service model, your liquor risk, and your seasonal staffing reality.
