A bar typically needs liquor liability (dram shop), general liability, commercial property, and business interruption coverage at minimum. Liquor liability is especially critical — it protects against third-party claims when an intoxicated patron causes injury or damage. Depending on your operation, you may also need employee theft, hired and non-owned auto, and food spoilage coverage. North Carolina's dram shop laws make liquor liability non-negotiable for any alcohol-serving establishment.
