The dining room at Tomkat, Via Calderia 12 in Lucca, with its long table and walls of wine bottles

For companies, teams, and international guests

Corporate events in Lucca’s historic center

Client dinners, team tastings, toasts for a launch or the end of the year: we’ll open our wine bar to you, exclusively if you wish, with nearly 200 labels and food made for sharing. Within walking distance of the hotels inside the city walls.

A place where people talk to each other

The best corporate dinners don’t feel like corporate dinners. Everyone sits close together, dishes get passed around the table, and the wine gives everyone something to talk about. For companies, we create that same evening, tailored to your number of guests, timing, and budget.

Our wine list has earned Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence (2025 and 2026) and a Silver Star in the Best Medium-Sized List category at the Star Wine List of the Year International Open 2026: one more thing for your guests to talk about, including those from abroad. Service is in Italian and English.
