About Bar & Restaurant Insurance
Arizona hospitality’s insurance team, built for what’s next
For 26 years we have insured the bars and restaurants that make Arizona hospitality what it is. Now, powered by ALKEME, we bring that same specialist focus with more carriers and more resources behind every client.

26 Years in hospitalityOur Story
Specialists in the business of hospitality
Bar & Restaurant Insurance was built on one idea: hospitality businesses deserve an insurance team that understands how they actually operate. Liquor sales mix, late nights, live entertainment, staffing, and leases all shape your risk, and we place coverage around them.
Founder David “DELO” DeLorenzo has owned 13 restaurants and has worked in hospitality for more than two decades. That operator view still guides how our team reviews every policy.
