Corporate seminar in Paris 11: privatize a Franco-Taiwanese venue

Organize a corporate seminar in the 11th arrondissement

The 11th arrondissement of Paris has become a prime zone for off-hotel corporate seminars: startups, agencies, IT firms, consultancies find a sweet spot between accessibility (close to Republique, Bastille, Nation) and originality (leaving the Opera quarter or La Defense behind). MAISON LE TE, at 136 rue Saint-Maur, offers full or partial privatization for formats from ten to fifty people. The Franco-Taiwanese venue breaks from standard business restaurants: guests leave with a clear memory of the place, which helps for integration seminars or high-stakes client evenings.

Possible seminar formats

Three main formats are offered. The breakfast or brunch seminar (8am-12pm, up to 50 standing cocktail, up to 30 seated) with a Taiwanese breakfast menu (marbled tea eggs, pork gua bao, rice congee, high-altitude tea, filter coffee). The team lunch (12pm-3pm, up to 40 people) with a three-course Franco-Taiwanese menu. The client evening or afterwork (6pm-11pm, up to 50 cocktail) with tea cocktails, sharing boards, sweet bites. For longer seminars (full day with breaks), the team can build a mixed format with breakfast, morning break, lunch, and end-of-day debrief.

Equipment and services

High-speed wifi is available across the room. A quiet zone at the back allows video calls during the seminar. A large TV screen and a video projector can be provided on request (with standard HDMI). The floor team handles personalized service, including dietary needs: vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free, halal. Non-alcoholic drinks (tea mocktails, fresh juices, filtered water, tea, and coffee) are included in all formats. Alcoholic drinks (wines, craft beer, cocktails) are billed separately or included depending on the package.

Capacity and configurations

The main MAISON LE TE room hosts 30 standard seated. With full privatization, capacity can reach 40 seated or 50 standing cocktail depending on furniture. The team can also propose a U-shape for an interactive workshop (up to 16 people) or theatre for a presentation (up to 35). The contact page lets you request a quote with desired configuration, target date, and approximate guest count. Reply within 24 hours during the week.

Indicative budget

Per-person budget varies by format. Taiwanese breakfast: 25 to 35 EUR per person. Three-course lunch: 45 to 60 EUR per person. Cocktail evening with boards: 35 to 55 EUR per person (cocktails included). Full room privatization excluding catering: from 1500 EUR for a full evening. These prices are indicative and may be adjusted based on menu, duration, and season. The house always issues a personalized quote after a first discussion.
