You need to tell your broker if you have deep-fat fryers in your kitchen so they can make sure they offer you the right package.  

Deep-fat fryers come with an extra fire risk so it’s important your policies cover you in case something happens. For example, someone accidentally leaves some food in the fryer and it sets on fire.  

Our knowledgeable insurance team will be able to make sure your policies include cover for any risks that come with using fat fryers. 

Public liability insurance should normally cover you if someone suffers food poisoning at your restaurant as a result of consuming food you’ve given them. A public liability insurance policy normally comes as standard with a restaurant insurance package, but it’s always best to double check.
