Experience
Not a party room. A character.
A speakeasy in the original sense: a place you guess at more than you find. Low ceiling, copper-toned lighting, hushed smoking lounge, bar staffed by pros. The feeling of pushing open a door onto another era, and staying there until dawn.

Frequently asked
What you should know.
Is the venue really hidden?
Yes. The entrance is a fake street-side bookcase at 2 rue des Anglais. Passers-by read it as urban decor. Your guests have to search, that's the point.
What kind of event suits this?
Birthdays (18, 25, 30, 40, 50), private parties between friends, intimate weddings, engagements, original corporate evenings, product launches, VIP client nights. Anything that needs to land.
How many guests?
30 to 150. Below that, the group dynamic dilutes; above, circulation gets tight. Sweet spot: 60 to 120.
Is the venue actually convenient despite its hidden side?
Yes. Caterer-ready kitchen, staffed cloakroom, climate control, Wi-Fi, ventilated smoking lounge, parking 50 m away. The unusual side is the staging, not the comfort.
Can we adapt the decor to our theme?
Yes, within the venue's spirit. Customisable photobooth, custom signage, adjustable lighting. We discourage heavy makeovers, the venue stands on its own.
Price?
Varies by day, season, guest count and format. Detailed quote within 24 hours, no commitment.
Is the venue ERP-compliant?
Yes. ERP-compliant, extinguishers, evacuation alarm, CCTV, dedicated security agent. The speakeasy side stays a serious and compliant frame.
