Le Bouquet Garni is a French restaurant at 23 rue Berger in the 1st arrondissement of Paris that takes group bookings and private hire. A private room holds up to 20 guests, and the whole restaurant can be taken for up to 150. It suits business meals, team dinners, product launches, birthdays and wedding receptions in the center of Paris.
Seminars and company events
The restaurant lists business meals and product launches among the occasions it organizes. For a small team, the private room is the simple option: it holds up to 20 people and keeps a lunch or dinner away from the main dining room. For a larger gathering, the spaces are described as modular, so the layout can be adapted to the size and format of the event.
The venue is not a seminar center. There is no plenary hall and no meeting equipment on the official pages, so it fits the meal or reception that follows a working session held elsewhere, an end-of-project dinner, or a client lunch. Opening hours are 11:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. from Monday to Saturday and 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Sunday, and the team can discuss hire outside normal service on request.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings and birthdays appear on the list of events the restaurant hosts. With the full venue available for up to 150 guests, it can serve for a reception or a celebratory dinner in the city. The official site gives no wedding-specific packages, no ceremony space and no accommodation, so couples should plan the ceremony and overnight stays elsewhere and use the restaurant for the meal.
Rooms and capacities
Two configurations are stated. The private room takes up to 20 guests. The complete restaurant, including the main room, takes up to 150. The site does not give floor areas, ceiling heights or seating plans for each format, so ask for the layout that matches your numbers when you send a request.
Catering
Catering is in-house. The kitchen serves French home-style cooking inspired by family recipe books, and the dining room is lined with long bookshelves that give the place its character. Group menus are offered at three levels, called Classique, Terroir and Prestige. The restaurant also runs a brunch, which can be a starting point for a daytime gathering.
Getting there
The address is 23 rue Berger, a short walk from the Forum des Halles and the large Châtelet-Les Halles transport hub. The site describes the restaurant as close to the biggest transport interchange in Europe, which makes it easy to reach by metro and RER from the whole Paris region. Guests arriving from the airports or from other cities by train can change at Châtelet or Gare du Nord and walk or take a short ride.
