LA CUCINA AT THE MARKET offers private cooking experiences that are perfect for corporate celebrations, team bonding activities and client appreciation. Our space also offers the perfect setting for your next meeting or holiday party. Our instructors will teach your guests how to prepare recipes from seasonal, themed and internationally inspired menus.

Get hands on rolling dough, shaping pasta, sautéing chicken and leave with new cooking tips and techniques. Enhance the experience with upgrades like customized aprons or chef hats, swag bags and team-building challenges. We’ll help you curate an unforgettable gathering. 
I just wanted to reach out and thank you and your team for an amazing cooking/team building experience! The food was delicious and everything turned out great! Thanks again!

Had an amazing time at La Cucina with Anna and the team. We had a 60 person event, which can be hard to find a partner for, but they fit us in and helped put together a great menu! Not only did people enjoy making dishes and eating together, I've since received a LOT of requests for the recipes - which La Cucina was happy to share. Highly recommend coming here for your next team event!

Everything Included — No Outside Vendors Needed

Coordinating a corporate event can involve a lot of moving parts. At La Cucina, we simplify all of it. We provide the space, furniture, catering, and serving staff — so there’s no need to juggle outside vendors or manage multiple contacts. You deal with one team, and we handle everything from setup to the last plate cleared from the table.
Here’s what comes with every corporate booking:

Every event can be customized around your objectives — menu, theme, format, and add-ons are all flexible. Whether you want a straightforward working lunch or a full evening that includes a hands-on cooking experience and private dinner, we’ll help you build something that fits your group.

Venue DetailsOur private dining room accommodates 10 to 50 guests for a seated event, and up to 60 for hors d’oeuvres and cocktails. The space is equipped with a 50-inch monitor and audio/visual capabilities, making it easy to run presentations, slideshows, or video as part of your event. We are BYOB — your group is welcome to bring their own beverages. Bar service is also available as an optional add-on.
We are available for lunch or dinner seven days a week, and breakfast service is available for corporate bookings as well. Whether you need a focused half-day session or want to book the space for a full day that includes a working session and a team dinner, our flexible booking terms work around your schedule. |
Located in the Heart of PhiladelphiaWe’re located at 1206 Arch Street, just steps from the Pennsylvania Convention Center. That puts us right in the middle of Philadelphia’s business district — easy to reach whether your team is coming from across the city, the suburbs, or traveling in from out of town for a conference or meeting.
If your group already has a full day at the Convention Center, La Cucina is a convenient stop for a group lunch, dinner, or an evening event. Discounted parking is available nearby, so getting there is one less thing to stress about on a busy day. |

Why Corporate Groups Choose La CucinaMost corporate events end up in the same kinds of venues — hotel ballrooms, rented conference rooms, catered offices. La Cucina is something different. Cooking together levels the playing field. It’s hands-on, collaborative, and fun in a way that a standard team dinner simply isn’t.
Whether you’re a group of lawyers rolling out pasta, department heads learning to sauté, or a sales team trying mixology for the first time — the kitchen has a way of bringing people together in a way that a conference room simply can’t. Guests get hands on, learn new cooking tips and techniques, and leave with something to talk about long after the event. It’s the kind of experience that stays with people — and that’s why groups come back. |
