Does Chez Clément welcome corporate groups?

Quick answer

Yes. Brasserie Chez Clément welcomes corporate groups of all sizes, from a six-person partner lunch to a 250-guest standing reception. The brasserie seats 230 guests in regular configuration, runs more than 1,400 covers a week and supports partial privatisation through the dedicated B2B contact info@brasseriechezclement.be.

Brasserie Chez Clément has, since 1858, been built to absorb group volumes. The original coaching inn opened by Henri and Sidonie Clément on the Brussels-Wavre road was already a stopping point for travellers and traders; five generations later, the operational discipline remains. The current configuration seats 230 guests for a regular service, with a weekly throughput north of 1,400 covers and standing capacity reaching 250 guests for a cocktail reception.

That range translates into a broad welcome for corporate groups. A six-person partner lunch fits in a side of the main dining room or in the conservatory; a twenty-person team off-site can be seated as a long table without disturbing the regular service; a fifty-person internal seminar lunch is well within scope; and once the format crosses the eighty-to-hundred-guest threshold, partial or total privatisation becomes the natural answer. The thirty-two-person kitchen brigade under chef Vincent Frédéric De Laloy, in the house since 1996, is dimensioned for that amplitude.

The internal layout offers flexibility: the main dining room, the separate bar area, the conservatory (the room where Marie and Gilles Verleyen, the fifth generation, were married), and the terrace each bring a different feel. A team dinner, a kick-off lunch, a partner reception, a product launch or an annual celebration can each find the right setting without renting an external event venue.

For corporate groups, the booking route depends on size and intent. Up to a dozen guests for a regular lunch or dinner: book on the reservations page and mention the professional context. Above that, or for any private-area request, the right entry point is info@brasseriechezclement.be, the team replies with a configuration proposal and quote framework.
