Hosting a guest who matters - a visiting client, an investor, a senior colleague from head office - puts the venue in an awkwardly prominent position. Choose something generic and the evening reads as an obligation discharged. Choose something too loud and the conversation you actually wanted never happens.
White Chocolate is a straightforward answer to that problem. An unmarked entrance in the Old Town, stone stairs down into a vaulted cellar, six private salons and a room built from white leather, black velvet and gold light. It is distinctive without being ostentatious, and it is discreet by design.
Discretion Is the Point
The entrance is deliberately anonymous and the salons are separate rooms rather than sectioned-off areas. For hosting someone who would rather not be observed, that is the practical feature that matters.
There is no passing trade walking through, and no reason for anyone to be near your table who is not part of your evening.
Memorable Without Trying Too Hard
The value of a venue like this when hosting is that it does not require explanation and it is not forgettable. A guest who has spent a career in hotel bars will remember a candlelit medieval cellar under the Main Market Square.
English is spoken throughout, which removes the friction for international visitors entirely.
Arranging It Properly
Call ahead rather than arriving and hoping. Tell us it is a hosted evening and we will allocate a salon accordingly and pace the service to match.
We are at ul. Św. Tomasza 16 in the Old Town, walking distance from the central hotels where most visiting guests stay. Open nightly from 20:00.
Frequently asked questions
How private are the salons really?
They are separate rooms rather than curtained-off corners, in a venue with an unmarked entrance and no passing trade. For a discreet hosted evening, that is genuinely the case rather than a marketing line.
Is it suitable for international guests?
Yes. English is spoken throughout, we are walking distance from the central hotels, and the venue is distinctive in a way that a hotel bar is not.
Should I book in advance?
Yes, particularly for a hosted evening. It lets us allocate the right salon and prepare properly rather than improvising when you arrive.
Do you serve dinner?
We are a club rather than a restaurant, so the evening is drinks and atmosphere. Most hosted groups eat elsewhere first and come to us from 20:00 onward.
What is the dress code?
Smart, which suits this kind of evening naturally. Business or evening clothing is ideal. No sportswear or trainers. Adults only, 18+.
