onePlace Rungis can host private dinners, company evenings, team-building days, study days and receptions for 24 guests at the chef's table, 350 seated guests or 800 guests at a standing reception. The venue is a food market in Rungis, in the Val-de-Marne, a few minutes from Orly airport.
Seminars and company events
Companies use onePlace for team lunches, study days, afterworks, cocktail receptions and full evenings. The official site lists several formats: a shared tasting menu that brings together the five kitchens, the chef's table upstairs, the L'Équerre lounge bar, team-building activities and a catering service. A pizza class, a DJ set, a dance evening or a karaoke night can be added to an event. An organiser can book one space or the whole venue.
Weddings and receptions
The site presents onePlace as a place for evenings and receptions rather than as a wedding estate. The ground-floor hall and the upper floor can be privatized for a cocktail dinner or a party. A couple planning a large reception should confirm with the team what is available for a private celebration.
Rooms and capacities
The venue combines a 1,000 m² hall on the ground floor, a central kitchen and a 350 m² upper floor with a lounge bar, a bistro and a chef's table. The stated figures are 350 guests seated and 800 guests at a reception. The chef's table, called Temporalité, seats 24 people at one table and suits study days, team lunches and private dinners. L'Équerre is the lounge bar for karaoke evenings, lounge atmospheres, bistronomic lunches and cocktail dinners. The upper floor also holds the Cocotte space. An organiser can ask for a single space or for the complete venue.
Catering
Catering is in-house. Five kitchens share the hall: Yalah for Mediterranean dishes, Bella Gigi for Italian cooking, Mademoiselle Chang for Asian dishes, Shmatz for New York delicatessen food and Lily and the Moon for healthy, vegetarian cooking. Everything is prepared in the central kitchen in Rungis, which serves more than 3,000 meals a day. For groups, the team offers a tasting menu with dishes to share from each of the five kitchens, plus two desserts of the day. Several dishes are marked halal and the site publishes an allergen table. Guests with allergies or special diets should say so in the request. At the chef's table, the menu changes with the seasons and comes with a wine list. A caterer service is also listed for events held elsewhere.
History and setting
The venue was created by the chef Grégory Cohen and sits at the gate of the Rungis market, the largest fresh-produce market in the world according to the venue. It was first designed for people who work at Rungis, then opened to companies and to visitors from Paris. The setting is a food hall rather than a historic house, which gives events a lively, open atmosphere.
Getting there
The address is 2 Place de l'Équerre, 94150 Rungis. Orly airport is a few minutes away, which helps for guests who fly in. Paris is south of the capital and reachable by road. The official site gives an itinerary link and a direct phone line and email address for event requests. Ask the team about parking and public transport for your date.
