    Our private social club hosted a social mixer on a Tuesday at The Folly and our guests had a great time! We were a group of about 15 and the beautiful mezzanine area worked perfect for us. Aron, Jon and Ina were a pleasure to work with. Aron was very responsive and timely in communication and Jon and Ina were friendly on site the evening of our event. No reservation fee or food and drink minimums were required which is difficult to come by in beautiful NYC spaces. I look forward to reserving again!
