We drove in from Burlington to try the Foundry...and believe me, it did not disappoint! I can't say enough about the charming atmosphere, the warm and engaging staff...and the food and drinks!!! We had the burger, the steak and the seafood mac and cheese and WOW! All so delicious. We absolutely loved the Foundry and will definitely be back!

Went here two days in a row last week. Came across it by chance and decided to give it a try. Had olives, truffle fries, fish crudo, wings, burger, fish and chips, salad amongst us and everyone enjoyed their food. Although our server was nice the service was slow paced. We waited quite awhile to get drink orders in. And food. Seems like they're understaffed. However that didn't change my mind to try them again the next day (because food was good and patio is gorgeous) . Service was much better. Enjoyed our meal once again. Had good conversation. I recommend this place to everyone.

We attended this place last night to celebrate three birthdays, which was mentioned to the server when we were seated.The location is very trendy with great design features and a pleasant atmosphere, so kudos for that.The appetizers were also excellent and we were pleased with the onion soup we had and the calamari.The reasons why I am giving this restaurant three starts are based on the following items, which may have been a one-off, however, this was my experience.Accessibility. The menu is written in letters so small that for those that have any type of vision problems you will struggle to read it. I had to take photos and use my phone where as most people on our table were using the flashlight on their phones to be able to read the menu. Which was even suggested by the server, so they know this is an issue.Another issue with their menu is the way their plates are described. People in my table ordered smoke chicken power up and the seafood Mac and cheese, both were spicy and the menu (nor the server) made sure we were aware of that. It was not properly explained.Additionally, the chicken is actually a salad, which is not clearly explained (again) in the menu (see the photo), and again, the server didn’t take time to properly explain these important details.The second issue was the service itself. This place is not cheap, and I think that they should adjust their level of service to the expectations based on pricing. The relaxed atmosphere is all very good, however, I found that we were not given a proper level of attention and care as attention to details were not there. As an example, our table had a dietary restriction with two of the guest (not for me), and when the orders arrived, my dish had been also modified for this dietary restrictions, which was again, this was not applicable to me.No special considerations were given to the fact that three birthdays were being celebrated, and the table at one point was crowded with dirty dishes that took a while to remove. Additionally, requests like cutlery for a dish and fixing the dish that they didn’t do properly, were not provided satisfactorily. Once again, no attention to detail.The last thing is that the manager was doing his rounds on the tables and took literally less than 30 seconds on ours. when he asked if everything was well, I wanted to point out the error on my dish and he just smiled and said “great that all is well”. Not sure if he didn’t hear me but he just didn’t take the time to make sure he was paying attention to his patrons when he came tu us without us requesting it.In the end, I would say that this restaurant has potential, but they need to revamp the training for their waiting staff and work on changing their menus to make them more accessible and easier to read and understand.There were several errors to our orders, like bringing the wrong desserts to our table at the end of our meal.Maybe we are not the target market for the restaurant but with the prices they charge, I am struggling to understand who they are trying to appeal to, if they are not able to cater to the expectations of our table (we are all in our 40s).So, will I be back? Maybe not, I feel that my experience didn’t match the price I payed for it even though many food items were delicious, and some others, due to lack of proper description and warning from our server, truly disappointed some members of my party. The other big problem, the lack of attention to detail you get at other similarly priced restaurants like the keg.I hope these comments can be used to improve the issues we experienced and retain future customers that fit our profile.

I ordered the club sandwich on sourdough with the loaded baked potato soup and it was delicious! Well seasoned chicken, bacon, real avocado and lettuce (not shredduce). Even the coleslaw was good. I highly recommend the paper plane cocktail. My husband got the burger and fries and said it was good but not amazing for the price.

Dined on the back patio which was nice, the interior is gorgeous and they had live music inside too.Got 2 beer flights - I enjoyed all of the ones I chose and they were all very unique.I didn’t get cocktails but the table next to us told us they were great! One of the wait staff also told us they have a new person curating a new cocktail menu - so keep an eye out!The calamari was good, nothing groundbreaking, but very good.My favourite thing was the sticky toffee pudding. I’m usually wowed by desserts but this was SO yummy.Overall the food & drinks were great, will be back!

What a beautiful space. Foundry Tavern has taken a turn of the century manufacturing building and turned it into a fashionable and welcoming meeting place. The food was delicious and plentiful, the wine and beer list was good, and the service was friendly and approachable. We might have just found our new favourite Cambridge restaurant. A special shout out for the larger than normal selection of plant based, vegetarian and gluten free options.

Finally a beautiful restaurant and patio right in downtown Galt! The food and mocktail were delicious. We started with the calamari dish, it was lovely. I would have liked a few more shishito peppers (there were only two). We all tried the chicken sandwich which was very tasty. The location and ambiance was spot on. Our server was lovely, however service was a little slow especially considering we seem to be the only ones there. There seemed to be a good selection of gluten free, dairy free, vegan and vegetarian dishes. I personally would love to see a nice vegan (or at least dairy free) dessert on the menu.

I tried this restaurant this evening with my mom after passing by it many times. First of all the interior is absolutely gorgeous. It's incredibly beautiful and has loft style vibes with a lot of greenery indoors. Very relaxing.The food was absolutely amazing. We started with the nuts and they were seasoned incredibly well. I got the jerk style wings and they were the best wings I've ever had. The seasoning was phenomenal and the wings were massive. If you come here please do try the wings (various flavor options!).The only downside was that the service was a tad slow. Not a deal breaker by any means but we did sit for a while after finishing our meal. The service we did receive though was very friendly.Overall the food was amazing and I'll be back soon.

This place has a really cool atmosphere. I saw a couple walk in who looked like they were side characters in a Batman cartoon. Didn't manage to get a picture with them though.Our server was very friendly and attentive. I got the chicken club sandwich and it was delicious and very filling. I got a paper plane cocktail too - highly recommended!
