BRASSERIE DU CHATEAU

What BRASSERIE DU CHATEAU does

La Brasserie du Château is a single-location French brasserie and restaurant operating in Rueil-Malmaison, in the Île-de-France region. The business is housed in the former pavilion marking the entrance of Château de Napoléon Bonaparte, a historic setting that the operator uses as a brand anchor. The restaurant serves a broad consumer base — local residents, families, business diners, and friends gathering for meals or drinks — offering seasonal French brasserie cuisine, a 49€ three-course signature menu, a 19€ children's menu, à la carte starters, mains, desserts, oysters and seafood platters, sharing platters, and a curated wine list spanning major French regions. Service is provided indoors (banquette seating) and on a weather-dependent outdoor terrace, with opening hours spanning Tuesday-Saturday for lunch and dinner and Sunday for lunch.

The underlying technology stack is modest and operator-grade rather than proprietary. The website and front-of-house software are entirely powered by Zenchef, which provides online reservations, click & collect takeaway ordering, gift card and voucher sales, and certified review collection. The website is deployed in 12 languages and hosted on AWS, with Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Recaptcha, Google Maps/Waze, Facebook pixel, and Tarteaucitron cookie consent integrated for analytics, security, mapping, and compliance.

The business model is a direct-to-consumer restaurant operation with three revenue streams: dine-in food and beverage sales, takeaway/click & collect orders (notably oysters and ocean products), and online gift card sales. Distribution is purely domestic, through a single physical location and a transactional e-commerce-enabled website (own storefront). The legal entity is SARL DS3J, a privately held French SARL with €7,500 share capital, no parent company, no external investors, and no disclosed funding history. The director of publication is listed as STEVE/HOCHART. The company is not a venture-backed or PE-backed asset and operates as an independent small enterprise with 9 employees.
