Questions about private hire and groups

How much does it cost to hire the bar privately?

There is no rental fee: private hire works on a minimum spend. For the vaulted cellar, €1,200 Tuesday to Thursday and Sunday, €1,500 on Friday, Saturday and Monday; for the whole venue, €2,000. The minimum is paid by the organiser before the evening; drinks are deducted from it. For up to 20 guests, simply reserving a table costs nothing.

Can we hire the bar for a birthday, hen/stag party, or family celebration in Nice?

Yes. The bar hosts private hire and group evenings: a birthday, a bachelor or bachelorette party, a family reception or a private evening, subject to availability and the format you choose.

How do we request a proposal for a group or private reception?

Fill in the form with the essentials, or message us on Instagram or Facebook. We reply quickly with a clear proposal, whether it is for an afterwork, a private evening or a reception in Nice.

Do we need private hire to come as a group of 15 or 20?

No. For up to 20 guests, simply book a table through the online form: no fee, the bar stays open and everyone pays for what they order. Private hire, of the vaulted cellar or the whole venue, works on a minimum spend; it is the choice of larger groups, or of those who want the place to themselves.

Can we eat on site or bring a caterer?

We have no kitchen and serve no food, but the neighboring restaurants (OKA, Fish Bar 2.0, Etna Rosso) deliver to the cellar every day. When you hire the venue privately, you may also bring your own food, at no charge. A cake is always welcome.

Can we bring our own DJ, musician or playlist?

Yes, if you hire the cellar privately: the stage, the sound system and the microphones are yours, for a DJ, a musician or your own playlist on our system. Hosted karaoke, a DJ, artists or a drag show are available on quote. Mention it in your request, so we can prepare the setup.
