Everything was incredible!! The staff are lovely and so accommodating, lovely venue, fantastic time was had and will be back and recommend to people in future.
I had my 50th party at Dragonfly and the team were amazing! Aaron was so helpful and quick to respond when organising the booking. The venue was brilliant, a great size for my party and all the guests commented on how much they loved it! And last but not least the team on the night (Aaron and Millie) were just fabulous, nothing was too much trouble and we all loved Millie who looked after us all night! Thanks so much Dragonfly!
