Brasserie Colette Tim Raue in Munich can be booked as a whole for a seated dinner of about 40 guests, 64 in its everyday brasserie layout, or a standing reception of about 100. The restaurant is a French brasserie conceived by chef Tim Raue, at Klenzestraße 72 in the Glockenbachviertel district of München.
Seminars and company events
The brasserie lists press briefings, product presentations, receptions for international travel groups, photo shoots, company anniversaries and private celebrations among the events it hosts. For a company, the format that works best is an evening built around food: a client dinner after a trade fair, a press lunch for a launch, a team celebration or a standing reception with drinks. The team prepares an individual offer for each request. The site does not mention a separate meeting room or presentation equipment, so a talk or screening should be discussed when booking.
Rooms and capacities
The restaurant covers 135 m² and is planned for several layouts. A seated dinner at set tables takes about 40 guests. The standard brasserie seating holds 64. Cleared for a standing reception, the room takes about 100. The event offer covers the restaurant as a single space, not a set of separate rooms, which makes it best suited to exclusive hire for one group.
Catering
The kitchen follows Tim Raue's take on brasserie cooking: French classics reworked with sweet, sour and spicy contrasts. For events, it proposes three-course and five-course menus. The three-course example moves from a lamb's lettuce salad to beef fillet and a chocolate cake, and the five-course menu runs from beef tartare through bouillabaisse and monkfish to a macaron. Vegetarian and vegan menus are available on request, and the team can put together a custom menu for the occasion. Everything is cooked in-house, so there is no outside caterer to book.
History and setting
Tim Raue, a Berlin chef with Michelin stars, created the Colette concept as a more relaxed counterpart to his fine-dining work, and the brand also runs brasseries in Berlin and Konstanz. The Munich interior was designed by the Berlin architects Bruzkus Batek, who mixed the classic elements of a Parisian brasserie with modern materials. The Glockenbachviertel is one of the city's livelier central quarters, with bars, galleries and the Isar river a few streets away, which suits an evening that carries on after dinner.
Getting there
The address is Klenzestraße 72, 80469 München. The brasserie states that an U-Bahn station is about 550 meters away, and Fraunhoferstraße on lines U1 and U2 is the closest. München Hauptbahnhof is a short ride by U-Bahn or taxi, and Munich Airport is linked to the center by S-Bahn lines S1 and S8. Parking in the Glockenbachviertel is limited, so public transport or taxis are the easier option for guests.
