Schnock is a restaurant and wine counter at 31 rue Guillaume Tell in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Companies can privatize a lounge from 10 guests for a business lunch or a team dinner, or take the whole restaurant for up to 60 seated guests or 100 standing. The setting is a loft with exposed stone, a short walk from place Pereire.
Seminars and company events
The restaurant sells group formats for companies: business lunches, team dinners, year-end parties and after-work drinks. Quotes and invoices are issued in the company's name. Schnock is not a conference venue, and the official text describes meals and receptions rather than plenary sessions. It fits the lunch that follows a morning meeting held elsewhere, a client dinner, or the drinks that close a day.
Groups start at 10 guests, at lunch as well as at dinner. The after-work format takes place at the counter between 6 pm and 8 pm and combines a drinks reception with food to share. A welcome with a cocktail or a glass of Champagne can open the evening.
Weddings and receptions
The site lists birthdays and year-end parties among the private events, and does not present weddings. A family dinner or a celebration for up to 60 seated guests is the realistic scale.
Rooms and capacities
Four spaces can be booked on their own. The Salon Cheminée seats 24 or holds 30 standing. The Salle Beaulieu seats 25 or holds 30 standing. The Table Comptoir seats 10. The Salle Comptoir holds 35 standing. Full privatization of the restaurant seats 60 or holds 100 standing. The two lounges suit a seated dinner for a department or a client group, and the counter room suits a drinks reception.
Catering
The kitchen is in-house and follows the market. The group menus are a lunch menu, a dinner menu and a more elaborate dinner menu, each with a starter, a main course and a dessert, with mineral water and hot drinks included. Wine can be paired by the bottle, with a classic or a prestige selection, and a sommelier service chooses bottles to match the menu. For tasting evenings, the restaurant can bring in a winemaker. Menus can be adapted to allergies and diets. The menus are indicative and may change before your event.
History and setting
The restaurant is designed like an apartment, with intimate lounges or large shared tables depending on the mood. The walls are bare stone, and the decor mixes a rough look with warm furnishings. Schnock is listed by Gault&Millau and rated 4.8 out of 5 on more than 90 Google reviews, according to its own site.
