Do restaurants need liquor liability insurance?

Yes! If you serve alcohol, liquor liability is crucial: 

  • Covers claims like property damage or bodily injury caused by intoxicated customers. 
  • Protects against legal and financial risk if alcohol-related accidents occur. 
  • Typically required by liquor licensing boards, landlords, and some events venues. 

Gild ensures your restaurant is covered wherever alcohol is involved—so you can serve responsibly.
