Hire a Fully Equipped Restaurant in Paris

A genuine restaurant ready to use

Hiring Disco Crêpes is not simply a matter of booking an event space.

You have access to a genuine restaurant already fitted out for preparing and distributing food.

The venue includes a kitchen area, professional equipment, an extraction system, water points, a sales counter and an electrical installation designed for food-service operations.

This means you do not need to temporarily convert a gallery, showroom or function room into a kitchen space.

Depending on your project, the restaurant can be used to:

• prepare recipes on site;
• cook in front of guests or customers;
• test a production workflow;
• present and offer tastings of a food product;
• distribute preparations directly from the counter;
• welcome a team, journalists, influencers or partners;
• observe public reactions in a real commercial environment.

The equipment available and the ways in which the venue may be used are agreed with you before booking, according to the nature of your activity.

Create a pop-up or temporary restaurant in Paris

A temporary restaurant allows you to present a concept for a limited period without immediately committing to a long-term commercial lease.

Disco Crêpes can host a pop-up restaurant in Le Marais for a few hours, one day or several days.

This option may suit:

• a chef wishing to showcase a new cuisine;
• a food brand launching a product range;
• a creator testing a street-food concept;
• a company organising a brand activation;
• a restaurateur wishing to offer a temporary menu in Paris;
• a brunch, dessert, drinks or fast-food project;
• a collaboration between a brand and a chef.

You benefit from a restaurant that is already visible and identifiable from the street, with a preparation area and a counter suitable for welcoming and serving the public.

The concept, opening times, customer arrangements and any necessary authorisations must be agreed before the hire period.

Test a food concept in Paris

Before signing a commercial lease, fitting out premises or investing in equipment, it can be useful to test your idea in a real restaurant.

Hiring Disco Crêpes allows you to assess your project under genuine operating conditions.

You can evaluate:

• how clearly customers understand the concept;
• the appeal of the recipes and presentation;
• preparation speed;
• kitchen organisation;
• how counter service operates;
• quantities and storage requirements;
• the prices the public is willing to pay;
• customer reactions to a new brand or product.

Testing your concept in an existing restaurant gives you practical feedback before committing to a larger investment.

The venue may be suitable for a wide range of projects, including desserts, pastry, drinks, snacks, plant-based food, street food or innovative culinary concepts, subject to compatibility with the restaurant’s equipment and hygiene requirements.

Organise a product launch or product test

Launching a food product often requires more than a simple presentation room.

Guests need to be able to observe the preparation, taste the product, understand how it is used and speak with the people who created it.

At Disco Crêpes, you can combine:

• a brand presentation;
• a culinary demonstration;
• live preparation;
• a tasting;
• collection of user feedback;
• a meeting with journalists or influencers;
• the creation of photos and videos for social media.

The restaurant can also be used to test different recipes, preparation methods, packaging or forms of distribution.

A brand can therefore observe how participants react to a new product in a real setting rather than in a meeting room or an artificially created space.

Hire a restaurant during Paris Fashion Week

Rue des Gravilliers is located in an especially active area during Paris Fashion Week.

Numerous showrooms, collection presentations, professional appointments and brand events take place in Le Marais and the surrounding streets.

Hiring Disco Crêpes can meet a range of needs during this period:

• creating a brand pop-up;
• welcoming clients or partners;
• presenting a collection or product;
• creating a tasting area;
• providing a meeting point for a team;
• distributing food or drinks prepared on site;
• welcoming journalists, influencers or VIP clients;
• creating content in an original setting.

The venue combines a central address, a street-visible frontage, an unusual interior and a kitchen where products can be prepared directly on site.

Fashion Week enquiries should be made well in advance, as availability is naturally more limited during these periods.

Prepare and distribute food products on site

Disco Crêpes can be used as a presentation venue, but also as a genuine production and distribution space.

Depending on the approved project, your team can prepare products in the kitchen and then serve them:

• to guests inside the restaurant;
• to visitors attending a pop-up;
• from the street-facing counter;
• as part of a tasting;
• for a launch or sampling campaign;
• to test packaging or the customer ordering journey.

This is particularly useful for companies wishing to test the product, its preparation and its distribution at the same time.

You can assess the efficiency of service, production times, final presentation and consumer reactions.

Any sales or distribution activity must be described precisely when making the enquiry so that we can check its compatibility with the venue, its organisation and the applicable regulations.

Filming, photo shoots and content creation

A real restaurant gives photographs and videos greater credibility than a recreated kitchen set.

Disco Crêpes can host a variety of content-creation projects:

• filming a recipe;
• demonstrating a food product;
• creating TikTok, Instagram or YouTube videos;
• a brand photo shoot;
• an interview with a chef or entrepreneur;
• presenting kitchen equipment;
• advertising or editorial content.

Disco Crêpes’ décor combines mirrors, lights, a disco ball, colourful features and professional restaurant equipment. It provides imagery that is very different from a traditional professional kitchen.

The filming arrangements, duration, number of people and equipment brought to the venue must be specified in advance.

Restaurant equipment and features

Disco Crêpes is a food-service establishment located at 5 rue des Gravilliers in Paris’s 3rd arrondissement.

The venue includes:

• a kitchen and preparation area;
• an extraction system;
• an electrical installation compliant with current standards;
• several professional crepe griddles;
• stainless-steel work surfaces;
• a counter facing the street;
• a customer area;
• Wi-Fi;
• air conditioning;
• toilets on site.

The restaurant has a floor area of 28 m². It is therefore particularly suitable for small teams, focused concepts and operations looking for a compact, centrally located venue.

The exact list of equipment available depends on the hire package. Some equipment may be included, while other items require specific prior agreement.
