The dedicated restaurant insurance broker
We are bringing bespoke restaurant insurance back.
For too long restaurants have been shelved alongside every other business, only provided with standard business insurance that ignores their unique insurance needs. Restaurants are a critical component of our nightlife industry, and therefore deserve a dedicated broker who can
protect their financial welfare.
Restaurant Insure is the UK’s top restaurant insurance broker. We cater solely to one type of business, offering bespoke policies and tailored insurance solutions. Our aim is to improve protection for operators by providing targeted cover at a better premium.
Restaurant Insure is established by NDML, the UK’s largest independent nightlife broker with
25 years’ experience protecting British hospitality.

Our story
Our story begins with the UK’s leading independent broker for nightlife businesses – NDML.
NDML were one of many companies forever changed by the unprecedented events of the COVID pandemic. Over two turbulent years, business finances were rocked and tested, none more so than nightlife and hospitality operators. NDML gained notoriety as a leader for the sector by their voicing against Government measures and continued work with the NTIA. In NDML’s eyes, it was imperative to fight for the survival and growth of the industry.
Throughout COVID-19, NDML worked tirelessly alongside our industry partners to protect hospitality operators. This saw us secure business interruption settlements worth over £13m for our clients, alongside lobbying for government support throughout. We also launched campaigns to promote venues, as well as recognise influential individuals to reflect the pandemic’s cultural impact.
Though some may see the pandemic over-with, for NDML the fight never stopped. Which is why Restaurant Insure was created, to bring restaurants under the umbrella of NDML’s protection, support and guidance.

Our partners are very important to us. We are proud to say, through our partnership with NDML and the NTIA, we sit at the top table of decision-makers in the restaurant insurance scene. We are up to date on all the upcoming policy changes and how they could affect your cover.

Our covers
We make buying restaurant insurance simple. We’ve deconstructed comprehensive insurance policies into their core parts, offering clients a menu of covers and exclusions to choose from. We advise what policies should be within your policy, developing the perfect recipe of covers. Each client is guaranteed to receive a result they are happy with, and a bespoke solution that works.
However, we appreciate the fast-paced environment involved in running a successful restaurant. It’s why we allocate a dedicated handler to manage your case and negotiate with insurers on your behalf.

Our process
Wondering how to get started switching restaurant insurance brokers?
Get started with Restaurant Insure by following three easy steps…
1
We want to hear from you
Who you are? Where you are? How many people you employ? What type of restaurant business you run? Your claims history?
We will undertake a confidential review, analysing how your cover can be improved with a positive knock-on effect to your premiums. This will allow us to find out your claims history and the state of your cover at the present. We’ll investigate if inflated claims reserves are pushing up your premium or if you have unnecessary outdated extensions. We can see whether you are underinsured, or perhaps over insured, and if there are gaps in your insurance leaving you exposed.
2
Talk to our team
We’ll arrange a call to talk to you about your options and how best we can help you.
We want to understand your needs and requirements; we believe this is the best way to build a relationship and ultimately produce the best cover. For a truly tailored comprehensive insurance, have your insurance details ready as well as information about your business. We should have a range of options readily available and, with your permission, go to insurers to ask for a better premium.

Accept our quote
Our team will then pitch your information to our insurers and work towards getting you the best premium possible. Once we’ve agreed upon the premium and cover options, we’ll bring you an offer you’ll hopefully accept.
Our restaurant insurance offer promises to be a comprehensive insurance portfolio tailored to your business’s needs. It will include an extensive range of policies that covers your risks. We work hard to get premiums down and deliver an insurance offer that’s in the best interest of clients.
