Tucked inside Grand Central’s iconic Vanderbilt Hall, Grand Brasserie blends old New York charm with a hint of Parisian ease. Just steps from nearly every train and subway line, it’s a spot that feels both connected and calm — a rare find in Midtown.

The space is flexible without feeling generic. Whether it’s a small team dinner, a press event, or a full buyout for a brand launch, we make sure it feels thoughtful and well-paced. Food and drink? Handled. Our kitchen covers everything from early-morning coffee spreads to plated dinners and lively cocktail hours — and we’re happy to work with you on the details.
