Brasserie Flora can be hired in full or in part for events of up to 200 guests, on Boulevard Poissonnière in the 9th arrondissement of Paris. The restaurant serves Mediterranean and Italian cooking and opens its rooms to company gatherings, receptions, product launches and private parties. Its official privatization page lists afterwork drinks, farewell parties, cocktail receptions, seminars, team building, photo shoots, filming and pop-up events.
Seminars and company events
The brasserie states that it can be privatized in part or in its entirety, which covers two kinds of booking. A team can take one section of the room for an afterwork or a farewell drink. A larger company can take the whole restaurant for a cocktail reception, a product launch or an end-of-year party. Seminars and team building appear among the formats the venue accepts, so a working session followed by lunch or drinks is a realistic use. Flora is a restaurant rather than a conference center, and the official text does not describe built-in projection or meeting equipment. Ask about audiovisual needs when you send a request.
Rooms and capacities
The privatization page gives one figure: a maximum of 200 guests when the whole restaurant is hired. It does not name separate rooms and does not split the figure between seated and standing formats. It does say that each space can be arranged to create the atmosphere the organizer wants, so the layout is set event by event. The brasserie also mentions a covered terrace on its social pages, and the dining room opens onto the boulevard. The official text does not say whether the terraces are included in a private hire.
Opening hours give a sense of the available window. The dining room is open from 9 a.m. to 1 a.m. from Sunday to Wednesday, and until 2 a.m. from Thursday to Saturday. The kitchen closes earlier, at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday to Wednesday and at midnight from Thursday to Saturday.
Catering
The kitchen is led by chef Vincenzo di Napoli and follows Mediterranean and Italian lines. A traditional wood-fired oven produces the pizzas, and the menu also lists pasta and gnocchi. The bar offers signature cocktails, and a happy hour runs on weekdays. The official pages do not publish group menus or cocktail packages, so the choice between a seated menu and a standing cocktail format is agreed with the commercial contact named on the privatization page.
History and setting
The brasserie stands on the Grands Boulevards, between the Grand Rex cinema and the Théâtre des Nouveautés. The decor is floral, and the atmosphere is lively, with theaters, cinemas and offices close by. For a client evening or an afterwork, guests can arrive on foot from the neighborhood and leave late, since the dining room stays open into the night.
Getting there
The address is 30 Boulevard Poissonnière, 75009 Paris. The Grands Boulevards area is served by several metro stations, among them Grands Boulevards and Bonne Nouvelle, both within a short walk. A request form and a brochure are available from the privatization page of the official website.
