You want tasty drinks with cool decor hanging over your head? No problem, but you have to look for the obscure entrance in the restored Tai Kwun complex. Oh, and you might need to wait for a free table because this spot is THRIVING with Instagrammers dying to get a pic with the sea of turquoise shades rocking the Tiffany stained glass lamps and avid bar goers desperate to see what the buzz (ha) is all about.
My party of seven waited in this tiny lounge area that oversaw the actual bar space like outsiders peeping into a coveted party. To make good use of our wait time, we checked out the menu and decided on what we wanted.
Once inside, everything felt really overwhelming. There was barely any space to walk around and everyone was crammed into the small area. The chatter made it hard for me to hear my friends, so this is definitely not somewhere to have an intimate conversation. The stools are soo uncomfortable and high. The cherry on top was I smelled someone's B.O. so please make sure you put on deodorant before going! It was also quite difficult to get a good picture of the lamps.
Despite all that, the vibe was amazing and the staff were super friendly. All in all, it felt good to finally have a taste of Dragonfly. Speaking of taste, the drinks are so delicious! I remember I got one of the cocktails, and it might've been Mucha's Muse. We received Complimentary popcorn as well. read more
