SUPPER CLUB INSURANCE
Retro dining rooms, craft cocktails, and a full entertainment program — specialty coverage for supper clubs.
A SUPPER CLUB IS A RESTAURANT, A BAR, AND A VENUE.
A supper club pairs a full dining program with cocktails, entertainment, and often live performance — stacking liquor liability on top of food liability and entertainment liability, all under one roof. The classic supper club format concentrates more exposure per square foot than almost any other hospitality operation.
Craft cocktails and a full spirits program carry heavy over-service and dram shop exposure.
Food service alongside entertainment creates food and premises liability throughout the evening.
Live performers, DJs, and entertainment add performance and event liability to the standard hospitality exposure.
Private events and special programming concentrate guests and amplify every exposure simultaneously.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS.
What does supper club insurance cover?
Supper club insurance covers liquor liability for the full cocktail and wine program, food liability for the dining program, entertainment and performer liability, premises general liability for guests, property for the build-out and kitchen, and workers compensation for all staff.
Is a supper club treated differently from a restaurant for insurance?
Yes. A supper club with a full bar, dining program, and live entertainment has a more complex risk profile than a standard restaurant. The liquor liability, entertainment exposure, and event programming all need to be addressed alongside the standard food and premises liability.
Do live performers need to be covered under the supper club's policy?
Workers compensation for employed performers and entertainment liability for the performance itself are both part of the supper club program. How performers are classified — employed, contracted, or independent — affects the coverage structure.
Is a supper club's retro build-out covered at replacement cost?
Yes. The interior build-out — booth seating, bar fixtures, vintage elements, and décor — can be covered at replacement cost. Specialty or custom interiors require accurate valuation that a standard commercial property form may not capture.
Does a private event at a supper club change the liability?
Private events concentrate guests and amplify both the liquor and premises liability. How private events are addressed — in the base policy or through a separate event endorsement — depends on frequency and scale.
