The Foundry

This was my first visit here, and it was fabulous! The service was spot on and the food was outstanding! It was Tuesday so it was chicken finger special and we decided to give it a try. Wow! Were they ever good! Especially with their home made dill dip! This is definitely a place I will be returning to! Excellent!

First timers. We ordered our food and the fried dill chips came first. They were delicious but the dip could have been spicier. All around us, people were getting their food but our order took extremely long and when it arrived, my sisters club sandwich was good;, a burger was cold and sinewy; grilled cheese was cold. My Greek salad was supposed to have arugula in it but it was all spinach as was my sisters side salad. My chicken on the Greek was not Souvlaki but a cold chicken breast. My pita were stone cold and crispy, not soft and chewy. Coffee was hot and delicious. Overall, an underwhelming first experience. The wait staff were excellent but terribly overworked.and run off their feet. The restaurant was packed at lunchtime but only two women working and I really felt for their efforts. Nobody on the bar either. Sorry, but I will not be back. It’s a shame because we came based on my nephew’s recommendation. We love to support local restaurants too.

They put on lots of fun events throughout the week! They usually crank the music up after 9pm. So, if you’re looking to just sit and chat I’d say it’s not great for that, but if you aren’t then it’s a really fun spot!

The bartenders were so helpful and friendly! They really made us feel welcome. Food was good too!

Always a great place to stop for a beer and a bite. Great taplist and impressive can selection.

My wife and I enjoyed the food immensely. She wishes she could get the deep fried pickles everyday. The place looks great inside. Our server was very pleasant. It was just hard to get their attention when we needed refills or to get the bill.

The amazing staff, food, and environment + the live shows are the reason why I’m a regular and keep coming back!

Great meal outside on the patio. Staff was friendly and the service was solid. Can't wit to come back again.

Best chicken tenders I’ve had. Chicken was moist and the buttermilk coating was great. Didn’t care for the dill mayonnaise dip…I really tried to like it but just didn’t. Service was very slow. Not sure what the issue was or if this is the norm there.

Absolutely awful.everyone at my Table ate before I even received my salad. I was the only one who ordered salad.and wasn't even able to eat it there.had to take it to go.never ever again.went in hungry left hungry awful service. Didn't even get an apology 30 mins we were there and didn't get my salad and 12 other people ate? Does anyone see a problem here?

Horrible service. It was my first time ever being at the foundry, If I could give 0 stars I would. I waited 20 minutes with my auntie with FIVE SERVERS to get a drink and DIDNT EVEN GET A DRINK. The man beside me had made a comment about how ridiculous this is to be waiting this long and how horrible the service is and wished us good luck, so WE GOT KICKED OUT for his remark, as we got accused of “talking shit” according to the bartender with red hair and glasses. She made some crude comments saying she won’t serve us and that we need to leave. Terrible service. Terrible atmosphere. Will not be returning and will be sure to spread the word.

Stood there for 20 minutes with five bartenders, and nobody would serve me. Apparently they were too busy and one woman commented on how busy they were yet they were all just standing there.

Fun place with good food.intill last night.when they sold us drinks ten minutes before closing time and told us no need to rush. Just after twelve, another tell us to hurry up and leave.when trying to tell him.he went up in pitch and got rude.

Absolutely love this place. Been here multiple times. Food and music, great time with friends. Nice cocktails too

First tasted good and service was friendly. We were there on a trivia night so it was exceptionally busy and our food took an extremely long time to come. Our server apologized a number of times and gave us a 20% discount so that was a nice gesture.

Cute little place in downtown Thunder Bay. It was trivia night so it was a busy but fun crowd. We had great food! The panzarotti was as big as my head! Hot and fresh, it was delicious. All of our meals were good and the service was very helpful and attentive. We had no issues whatsoever and would definitely return again.

It was a Friday night and it was hopping, lots of good energy. Mostly university aged ppl, I'm old so the crowd wasn't young for me but the live dj and band had good tunes going. Dance floor was packed.

Love the foundry. Best live music venue. Staff are friendly and respectful. Food and drinks are good. We keep going back!
