I've recently hosted a surprise 40th birthday for my husband at Foundry Social and had such an amazing experience with them. I spoke multiple times with their event coordinator, Laura and she helped me determine the best plan of attack and room needs for the amount of people we were planning. Picking the menu was so fast and easy with their condensed catering menu. I even asked Laura for her opinion on the amount of food I needed and her judgement was spot on! It definitely wasn't her first rodeo! Ha ha!!When I arrived at Foundry Social, my private room was decorated so beautifully! It was basic but beautifully laid out with black linen tablecloths, gold bar rustic centerpieces and a perfectly placed light curtain wall. My black and gold decor fit in seamlessly. I offered help from many employees while setting up and even decorating! They were genuinely so kind throughout!! The manager came in multiple times to check on us and complimented my dessert display, we were allowed to bring in our own desserts.But this post cannot be complete without acknowledging the star of the show, our server Kylie. Initially, my plan was around 25 people in a 40 person room but that number quickly grew to 40 and then closer to 50 as the night went on. Kylie did not bat an eye. She was in and out of our room as fast as lightning. She kept everyone's glasses full despite carrying in tray after tray of adult beverages! I kept asking Kylie if she was okay and if my guests were taking care of her and she was constantly complimenting our party and saying how much fun she was having. She did a stellar job!!!I feel like it would've been so easy to just provide a room with tables, chairs and call it a day, like many places do. But, Foundry Social went above and beyond. It was a beautiful space with such friendly and genuine service, I am so glad I chose them. Throughout the night I had so many guests complimenting everything from the look of the room, the private space, the delicious food and the amazing service especially from Kylie. I absolutely will not hesitate to plan another event here.

Hosted a birthday party here & had a blast! Worked with Laura to get everything set up and she took care of everything! Food was great and our bar tender, Brian, took care of us. We all had such a great time eating, playing games and riding the go carts.

Great place to hang out with friends or to take your family. They have an excellent indoor electric go kart track, lots and lots of games including corn hole, bowling, and an arcade. The staff were great and the bar was very well stocked; only the wine menu was limited. The food definitely wasn't the attraction, next time we'd eat somewhere else and then come here for fun and a few drinks.

For my birthday, we wanted to hang out with some friends, grab a bite to eat, and generally just hang out and have fun. Have been wanting to visit the foundry (had been to high voltage karting a few times in the past but never this side of the facility)The place is very nice. Service was great, the retro arcade games were a blast of nostalgia, the duck pin bowling was super fun, the retro console area was amazing, and my personal favorite, the indoor go karts, just top off the experience.Food was good but a little expensive for what we got. Bit of a premium price overall. We felt the pricing for the events are very fairly priced and overall we're a great value given the enjoyment we got out of everything.Was a great place to hang with a few friends and have fun and will be visiting again in the future for sure.

This is a broke down place for broke down drunk people. I never seen such a hot mess in my life such lackadaisical employees. They serve people Beyond intoxication and vape weed behind the bar instead of making your drink. That's probably why I took an hour and 15 minutes for a spinach dip. Just seems like a bunch of illegal activity broken games no tokens and if the game is working good luck even trying to play. It's hard to determine which was worse broken games the broken employees or the creepy regulars? I mean seriously it's 11:00 at night why are there still infant babies in a bar? Ugggg. If you like cringe go to the foundary.I hope the owner does read this and reach out to me cuz I can give you a few tips on well basically everything. You literally need to redo the entire thing and reconsider all of your life choices.

Not what it used to be. They're actually charging you to play corn hole, and the tokens are less for more money. I still like it as a decent getaway from the inner city.

Foundry Social, a very large venue, did a fantastic job with our recent birthday party. You can rent several sections of the Foundry Social and use their catering for your event. Laura, Alexa and staff were right on key when organizing the 2 tier party room! They answered all questions, let us review the room set-up and had great communication throughout the process. I would definitely recommend this place for a fun time! It is wheelchair accessible and very near Root Candle Company. Check it out!

We had Lena as our bartender and she was wonderful! Super nice snd got to know us and made the night so much fun!
Foundry Social is a great concept and they almost have a grasp on a very fun place. Just need to expand a little bit more. During the week, it's not as crowded and easy to get around, but my last couple times on the weekend were not so great. Yes it's crowded on weekends, but for for amount of people, there's not enough games to go around. One to two hour wait times on games like cornhole, pool, shuffleboard, and duckpin bowling. The arcade games are always taken, broken buttons, and 7 machines were out of order. I ended up giving my tokens to some kids and going to the bowling alley. The staff is friendly and food is decent, but just wish they doubled or tripled their games. My group just ate and drank for a couple hours, and never got to actually play any games together.

Great food and great fun! So many activities to choose from, including old school arcade and video games. They have a huge go kart track that is for real awesome. Also classic games like pool, skee ball and duck pin bowling. Would highly recommend!
Really fun place for kids and adults. There was an issue with my wrap. Lena took care of it and got me a new one, and it was packed in there. I appreciate the great service. I'll be back for sure. Thank you!!!
Had a really good time, I stopped in for lunch after finding this place online. The waitress was awesome, gave me the rundown on how all the games worked and I was able to try out two or three Playstation and Nintendo games on the game wall between my food and drinks. She had great recommendations for both, all 4 beers I tired were excellent. I also tried the spinach dip with warm pita bread, I could eat that 5 days a week. I had a burger as well, it was good but a little dry. Will definitely be back!
