   Overall we had such a great day! The food was amazing and the entertainment was 10/10. The only thing is the wait for a drink, I had to ask the waiter 4/5 times for my drink and once he told me to wait , which was kinda rude, so I asked another waiter a girl and she got it within a few minutes.

   Having done multiple brunches, this was by far the most limited of them all. -Food was barely warm on arrival. Very limited options. - Limited to 3 choices of drinks, and all members of the party had to have the same drink. Drinks packed full of fruit juice and very sickly, appear very watered down. Photos on the open table page did not reflect what we were given. - Drink service across the tables was not consistent, larger tables were getting top ups of Prosecco through out the evening, we received 1 offer on arrival barely filling the bottom of 3 wine glasses for the table. - Sold as a 90 minute session (3:30-5) however we weren’t seated until close to 4pm and were told to “F*ck off” come 5pm, yes I get this was done with humour in mind however, majority of the smaller tables had lost at least 30 minutes of their booking. - Engagement was aimed at big groups rather than smaller tables particularly close friends of the host. Surprisingly the table of the hosts friends won every game that was played… After spending €135 we left feeling very disappointed.

   The food was ok, quite basic, the good thing is you didn't have to wait long for food to arrive

   Originally we booked the Doll Society for their original venue then it was changed to Hyde and was more expensive. The room was decorated amazingly very girlie, party disco it was probably the best part of it all unfortunately. The Drag Queen came on very late, she complained about being tired & hungover and only played like 4 songs alongside two games which to be honest were a bit of crack and the highlight. The drinks & food were pretty miserable for €45, the cocktails tasted like juice and the food portions were absolutely tiny. We made our own fun of it but didn’t think it would be something I’d recommend for a group of girls.

   I was very disappointed this time around at dolls society i went last January in there old location and had the best time and felt like i got my moneys worth and could not wait to get back but this time around was not the same although the dj and drag queen were amazing thats all that were good about the day we were only aloud get 1 jug at a time between 4 people which wasnt ideal cause not everyone liked the same drink in the old location if we wanted 2 different drinks that is what we got and couldnt get another drink til that was done the food wasnt great and also i think its bad that they advertise it as €30 for bottomless drinks but you get charged €45 all together even tho the foods says its €12.50 overall i think its not worth the money we paid €180 for a group of 4 girls and only got 1 disco bowl and 1 jug which only gave us 4 small glasses worth of drink and also 4 tender baskets i really dont think its worth the money anymore

   We had a great time at doll society bottomless brunch. The DJ was great and played all the best songs that had everyone on their feet. Viola Gayvis was a fantastic host and performer, it was a great day with great atmosphere. The only downside was the service, we were a table of three people and were pretty much forgotten about. We never got given the disco ball glass that every other table received and was promised we could ‘get someone else’s later’ but when I went about this, the staff member said ‘let me go check’ and never returned with an answer. Then I went up again later and was told that they weren’t serving drinks from the disco ball anymore and therefore we only received 2 out of the 3 paid for drinks despite every other table receiving them which was very disappointing as we had paid for it!

   Really disappointed with my experience. Staff were rude and service was appalling. The food was below standard and the drinks were watered down and it is very hard to get staffs attention to ask for another drink. Considering the price it is very poor value for money. On a positive note I did think that the drag queen was very good and so the entertainment was the only saving grace. I would not go again and wouldn’t recommend doll society.

    I celebrate my bday that day, was one of most enjoyable day in my life. Starting on reception, with our lovely staff(unfortunately I can’t remember her name), drinks, food, entertainment, the drag, show, everything, thanks a lot. I definitely will be back. And need to say congratulations to the organisers, the place is 200% improved now!
