Birthdays, baptisms, baby showers, etc... Gather your family in an extraordinary place

A warm and Homemade cooking for a family meal that changes everything

Dad's 60th birthday, the youngest grandchild's baptism, the annual family reunion, extended family get-togethers, meals after a ceremony: these moments matter.

And organizing a family reunion in Dijon isn't easy.

The apartment is too small. The restaurant doesn't offer much room to move or personalize. The banquet hall is cold and impersonal. The country house is an hour's drive away, and not everyone wants to drive.

Salt & Pepper offers another path.

In the heart of Dijon, a stone's throw from Place de la République, our unique venue, housed in a historic 17th-century building, welcomes your family for private use. Your loved ones can easily reach us by train, or by tram from the station in 15 minutes, and parking is available at the nearby public car park. No need to coordinate family cars.

Our Event Room is adaptable to your format: seated dinner for 20 to 50 guests, standing cocktail reception for up to 100 people, or a mixed format with a space for children to play and a space for adults to chat.

Our chef cooks on-site with fresh ingredients. The menu is adapted to your desires, taking into account allergies and dietary restrictions (low-salt diet for Grandma, vegetarian for cousin, gluten-free for the youngest). No cold-delivered platters, no outside caterers.

And for those who are more playful, we can even include a cooking or pastry workshop to involve children and adults. The perfect memory to end the afternoon.

Enjoy time with your family. We'll take care of the rest.

Questions frequent

What types of family events can you organize?

Salt & Pepper welcomes all your big family moments.

Milestone birthdays: 18th, 30th, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th. Children's birthday parties also possible with tailored cooking entertainment.

Baptisms, communions, confirmations: meals after the religious ceremony, in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Family reunions and cousin gatherings: often a full-day format, perfect for bringing together a geographically dispersed family.

Post-funeral reception: we also support you during these difficult times with discretion and kindness, in a soothing setting.

Mother's Day, Father's Day, extended family Christmas, Easter, New Year's Eve.

Our coordinator will set the format with you according to the time of day and the desired atmosphere.

How many people can Salt & Pepper accommodate for a family gathering?

From 30 to 100 guests depending on the chosen format.

The Event Room, in a seated dinner configuration, comfortably accommodates 20 to 80 people around tables, ideal for a birthday with a served menu or a baptism.

In a standing cocktail or mixed format setup, you can accommodate up to 100 people, perfect for a family reunion or a big birthday celebration.

For more intimate meetings (less than 20 people), we adapt with a cozier space like the Creative Lounge.

For very large families of over 100 people, we study each case individually with total privatization of the venue.

How do you manage dietary restrictions and children?

A family get-together inevitably involves a melting pot of constraints: Grandpa eats without salt, Cousin is vegetarian, the youngest is gluten-intolerant, Uncle doesn't eat pork.

We systematically request a summary of dietary restrictions during the briefing, approximately 2 to 3 weeks before the event. Our kitchen accommodates common diets at no extra cost: vegetarian, gluten-free, pork-free, alcohol-free, lactose-free, as well as major allergies.

For children, we offer a suitable kids' menu (simpler, adequate portions, desserts they'll enjoy). We can also set up a dedicated space where they can play or move around while the adults chat.

Our goal: to ensure no one feels left out during the meal, and that parents can enjoy themselves without chasing after the children.

Can we add an animation to make the moment more memorable?

Yes, and that's what turns a classic family meal into a true moment to remember.

Cooking or pastry workshop: live demonstration by our chef in front of the family, or a participatory format where children and adults get their hands dirty. An intergenerational format that pleases everyone.

Crepe, waffle, or pancake workshop: very popular for children's birthday parties or family snack times.

Burgundy wine tasting for adults while the children bake: everyone is happy.

For milestone birthdays, you can imagine a themed menu (the birthday person's favorite dishes, a culinary journey through the countries where they lived), or a personalized birthday cake.

Our coordinator will discuss this with you during the brief to adapt it to your family and the event.
