Ambassade d’Auvergne can host private events for 8 to 110 guests in three salons on the upper floor of its restaurant at 22 rue du Grenier Saint-Lazare, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. The official site says the team receives groups seven days a week, for family events, friends and colleagues, at any time of day.
Seminars and company events
The salons are set up for work as well as celebration. The site lists breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, apéritif, cocktail dinner, dinner and working meetings. The rooms can be arranged for seated meals, plenary conferences, standing cocktails, large or small tables and a U-shaped layout. A morning session with breakfast, a working lunch and an afternoon break can therefore be booked in the same place.
The terrace is also available for groups. Together, the three salons accept up to 110 people. They can also be used one at a time, which suits a board lunch or a team workshop of a few dozen people. The site states a minimum of 8 guests, so even a small management committee can book a room.
Weddings and receptions
The site does not mention wedding receptions. It does talk about festive events with family and friends, and the room formats include cocktails and seated meals, so a rehearsal dinner, an anniversary meal or a christening lunch would sit within the stated offer. Confirm directly if you are planning a wedding reception.
Rooms and capacities
The restaurant has three private salons on the floor above the dining room. The site does not publish individual names or the capacity of each salon. The combined figure is up to 110 guests. Layouts mentioned are seated meal, plenary conference, cocktail, large or small tables and U-shape. A terrace can be added to the booking. Ask the team for the plan of each salon and for the number of guests it takes in each layout.
Catering
The kitchen is described as homemade, using quality products and committed producers. A classic, convivial or festive meal can be built, and the choice of dishes and of wines from the restaurant's cellar is open. The restaurant presents itself as a traditional bistro with a seasonal menu and a lunch menu, and it has a dedicated page on its producers and wine list. No dietary or tasting formula is published for groups, so send the number of guests and the format when you ask for a proposal.
History and setting
The restaurant has been a Parisian bistro since 1966, in the historic center of the capital. It is a warm, authentic setting with a traditional cuisine. The main address is on rue du Grenier Saint-Lazare, close to Beaubourg and Les Halles, in the 3rd arrondissement.
Getting there
The site recommends Rambuteau metro station, and mentions Les Halles, Arts et Métiers and Étienne Marcel, on lines 3, 4 and 11. Several bus lines (29, 38, 47 and 75) run nearby. A Vélib' station is at the end of the street, and bike parking faces number 34 of the same street. For drivers, the site points to the Parking de l'Horloge and the Saint Martin and Sébastopol car parks. An electric vehicle charging point is opposite 204 rue Saint-Martin.
