We had the BEST time, what a way to kick off our hens celebrations! Ari was an amazing teacher and kept everyone engaged. The cocktails and food were delicious, and super accommodating for our dietary requirements as well - we couldn't fault anything at all. 10/10 would book again.

The class was fantastic and just perfect for our small work team to celebrate our end of year Christmas party. The teacher was knowledgeable and very charismatic and the cocktails we made were all delicious. The venue was beautifully decorated and cosy and the food was excellent.

We had a great afternoon at Li'l Darlin! We had the venue to ourselves for a few hours and all experienced how to make a cocktail as well as trying a few. The staff were lovely and the food included was amazing. Highly recommend!
Jenny Nguyen • Apr 2019
We had a blast at a team building event at Li'l Darlin. The whole session was relaxing and allowed us to set the pace. Our teacher was knowledgeable, friendly and the venue provided a great atmosphere to get away from the CBD. Would most definitely rebook for client team building events.
Catherine Jones • Feb 2019
