DRAGONFLY CATERING

Greetings Friends and Neighbors,

We are Dragonfly Catering, and we are thrilled to introduce our newest chapter—Dragonfly at the James Buchanan Mansion.

What started as a simple idea—providing comforting, chef-crafted meals to our friends and neighbors during uncertain times—has grown into something far greater than we ever imagined. In March of 2020, like so many in the hospitality industry, we found ourselves furloughed and searching for a way to use our skills to give back. We began by preparing meals for our community, donating to frontline workers, and supporting local businesses. As demand grew, we took a leap of faith and Dragonfly Catering was born.

Now, we’ve taken the next step in our journey by bringing our vision to a stunning, historic venue—The James Buchanan Mansion. This incredible estate, once home to America’s 15th President, has long been a place of elegance, hospitality, and timeless charm. Nestled in the heart of Chester County, it provides the perfect backdrop for gatherings of all kinds, from intimate celebrations to grand events.

At Dragonfly at the Buchanan Mansion, we specialize in customized culinary experiences—whether you’re looking for a laid-back, fun atmosphere or an elegant fine dining affair. Our menus showcase seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, and our team is dedicated to bringing creativity and passion to every event.

Chef Matthew Stone brings nearly 20 years of experience from private clubs, high-end steakhouses, and Bravo’s Top Chef to craft menus that blend innovation with timeless flavors. Dragonfly Libations, our full-service beverage program, offers handcrafted cocktails, curated wine selections, and personalized drink pairings to elevate every gathering.

In addition to our private event space, guests can also enjoy The Lounge at Buchanan Mansion—a full-service restaurant and bar featuring live music, pool tables, trivia and bingo nights, and nightly food and drink specials.

We are incredibly grateful for the support that has brought us to this moment, and we look forward to welcoming you to Dragonfly at the Buchanan Mansion, where every event is designed to be a one-of-a-kind experience.

Thank you for being part of our journey—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

​

Sincerely,
Chef Matthew Stone
