Company brunch in Paris: organising a convivial moment that brings your teams together
Company brunch in Paris: what to serve, quantities and a budget calculated on our catalogue prices, for launches, team building and meetings.
The company brunch sits halfway between breakfast and lunch: a convivial format, without the rigidity of a seated meal, that encourages informal conversation and team cohesion. In Paris, it is a fast-growing format for back-to-work meetings, company anniversaries or welcoming new employees. It naturally builds on our sharing formulas, designed to be passed around the table.
When should you organise a company brunch in Paris?
The company brunch works particularly well in 5 situations:
- Product or project launch: the relaxed atmosphere makes informal feedback and creative discussions easier.
- September back-to-work meeting: the team reunited after the summer, in a festive format without heaviness.
- Welcoming new recruits: warmer than a standard meeting, ideal for breaking the ice.
- Company anniversary: an internal celebration, convivial, suited to every budget.
- Informal team building: replace a team meeting with a moment around the table.

What is the difference between a brunch and an office breakfast?
