Service was excellent. Food was excellent. Wait time was very good. It wasn't busy at the time of service but still was a nice restaurant and bar. read more

The atmosphere here is something truly memorable unique, inviting, and full of character. It made the whole dining experience feel special from the moment we walked in. We tried the meatloaf and the Margherita pizza, and both were outstanding. The meatloaf came with a creative twist: served as meatballs instead of the traditional loaf. It was a deliciously different take and really worked. The Margherita pizza was fresh, flavorful, and just the right size for one person. Definitely planning to come back and explore more of the menu this place is a gem! read more

Food looked great from the pictures and especially the table next to us! About an hour ago we walked in really excited and were seated (table of two), we waited 15 minutes. It didn't occur to me to start tracking time since we were busy with the menu as we have never been. The table next to us had a server come by twice RIGHT next to us. She even made eye contact with us and the table was literally a foot away. I didn't complain at this as we didn't even know who was assigned our table but after also watching the host ignore us I started to get a little impatient. Finally after 30 minutes we decided to go somewhere else as we weren't even asked about beverages or "we will be right with you" ... anything! The host even watched us leave and said nothing. I'm really bummed as we had never been and the place looks neat! We moved here not that long ago but hoping to give this place a chance in the future ... maybe. read more

The decor and atmosphere is very comfy. Our server was amazing and attentive. We had the TJ burgers and the In Bacon we Trust burger. Both were very good with out being overwhelming with chorizo and bacon. read more

Awesome menu and friendly staff!! Great atmosphere and the food was delicious. Definitely a great time out!

I'm on a long road trip . I am also a bit of a snob who like clean food . This place did not disappoint. I had good buffalo wings and chicken wrap . Great flavors . Really like the French onion dip that went with the homemade chips . My server was warm , positive and on point . If you find yourself near here you will be happy that you chose the Foundry . read more

Good ambiance and the service is great. The Korean BQQ sandwich is REALLY tasty! Will definitely be back

Nice, clean place with very efficient, friendly staff. Have had some very good meals here. It's not loud like some pub/tavern style restaurants and that is appreciated. Would recommend! read more

Good on ALL levels, and a great selection of bourbon! The food is always good. The service is never bad. Good atmosphere.

We were so impressed we went twice in one day!! Everything we had there was phenomenal. Appetizers, burgers, pizza, dessert, cocktails. Service was fantastic as well. Highly recommend the juicy Lucy. Get the fries! Martinis were spectacular and everything very reasonably priced. I wish I lived closer because I'd be a regular. read more

First time here and so good! Fantastic menu for all likes and great rustic atmosphere! Nice bourbon selection at $5 for a 2oz pour and full bar menu. The best part for me was the front dining room with fresh flowers on the table and garage doors that open to the street. Plenty of parking on the street or a private parking lot. read more

Foundry Kitchen and Bar - Greens with deviled eggs... shrimp wrap! - Gastropubs Near Me - Elyria, Ohio

I was in the area for a meeting and 1/2 way through my meeting realized I skipped breakfast. I looked up nearest restaurants to find a place for lunch. Foundry was less than 10 mins away and the pictures looked promising. The interior is a bit dark but the staff was very friendly. I sat at the bar and started with the sweet Thai chili boneless wings. They were good but I didn't really taste any sweet Thai flavor. They taste like well seasoned chicken bites but no additional flavor. The southwest salad was full of flavor. I'm happy the bartender brought the salsa, sour cream and guac on the side because I think all mixed together would have taken away from the crispiness of the lettuce. The dressing is already on the salad so any additional moisture would have been too much. I have a meeting in the area about once a month and I will adding Foundry to my visit. I look forward to trying more things on the menu. read more

We enjoyed our visit to the foundry kitchen! We ate at this establishment many years ago when it was a steak house. I love the ambiance and feel at the foundry. Service was awesome and prompt. We will visit again... read more

We grabbed take-out as the open air front part of the restaurant was closed, and we are not yet comfortable eating indoors, due to Covid. We were able to place an order at the bar and our meals were ready in about 15-20 minutes. We took a nice walk around the area while we waited. Our meals were great, nice and hot. The sweet potato fries were awesome! read more

The loaded grill cheese was amazing. Everyone had great food- and the app was great. Wasn't a fan of the queso with the pretzels- but the other 2 mustards were plenty for me to dip in. The sweet potato fries with garlic aioli would bring me back for aure read more

First and likely my last time here. Great concept, wonderful scratch menu with a large local selection. Specials Monday thru Friday, including 3 for $5 Taco Tuesday. The bar has a great craft beer selection with custom cocktails. We came out tonight as a party of 9 to celebrate a birthday. We had reservations for 6:30, arriving a few minutes early, we were sat immediately and then we just SAT. After a few inquiries a server finally made her way to our table, introduced herself and walked away. Once drink orders were taken, out server Christen disappeared again. Upon reappearance, she took food orders rather quickly, too quick for first time patrons. It looked like our food was finally coming out, one order at a time by servers from other stations, christen was not one of them. Plates were missing, condiments never brought and drink orders not refilled unless you asked quite a few times. The food was good, great even. We had pizza, tacos, chicken and waffles, crab cakes, pretzels and house made chip dip. Did I mention the food was great! The service was bad, really bad. It was a Tuesday night, approximately 10 or so other tables were occupied, not a busy night at all. I understand that as a party of 9 gratuity is automatically billed, even if the tabs are split into multiple checks. Unfortunate for us, the service was not 20% worthy. As a former bartender and server, I feel confident in posting a not so good review. I hope the service gets better, the Foundry is an eclectic funky discs with awesome food. read more

Service is so-so at times. Food is good. A bit high I thought. Good atmosphere. Looks like a great bar. I believe a foot rail is needed though read more

Stopped in with two other couples for dinner today and it did not disappoint! Food was very good & service was too! The place got a bit busy but our server never missed a beat! Drinks were on point and we will definitely go back! read more

Stopped in for lunch today. First time here. Nice looking restaurant with a nice crowd. The menu was really good. A lot of different choices. No drinks today just iced tea. I ordered a wedge salad. It was delicious, best I have had in a really long time. Ordered 5 chicken "wings", I would pass on those next time. They weren't regular wings they were boneless...on the dry side. Prices were good, big beer selection and a nice drink menu along with a nice menu in general. I do look forward to going back for dinner. read more

Atmosphere - very good. Feels like an upscale brew pub. We were greeted promptly and pleasantly. The restaurant is spacious and offers a combination of high top and low top tables. There are enough TVs scattered around to make it a decent place to watch sports. Everything seems very clean. Service - very good. Our server was attentive and pleasant. Everything was served in a timely manner. Food - very good. I ordered a cup of lobster bisque and a cheeseburger with the restaurant's homemade chips. The soup was flavorful, but there were only crumbs of lobster (no pieces of any size. The cheeseburger was excellent. The bun was fresh and the burger was large and cooked perfectly. However, the chips were so salty, they were barely edible. My wife ordered the French fries. They were similar to, what I call, fair fries and Idid like them. Value - very good. We dined on Monday evening, which offers the burgers for $5. They have a special every evening. We will definitely return. read more

One of my favorite places in Elyria to eat. The drink menu has such great variety and supports local brews, which is always a plus. The food is also always pretty good - its really easy to find something you'll like! I personally always get the BLT salad w/o bacon, sub avocado and they have no problem making it taste delicious for my needs. I also like this place because it is such a good place to eat at with friends or family. The reservation/large party room is cozy and accommodating, so I highly recommend asking to be seated in this area with a large party for reservations (after the pandemic is over). Additionally, the layout makes it easy to socially distance so that you can dine without having to worry about anything. Finally, parking is on the street and in the parking lot to the side, and there is plenty of it, so that's a plus! read more

Great ambiance! Pretty good food. Vegetarian friendly as well as meat eaters. I would def recommend if in DT Elyria.

Great place. Casual but well executed menu. My sister had the salmon burger. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. The home made chips were crisp, salty, and delicious. Friendly, attentive service was impressive. Definitely worth a return visit. read more

My whole family gathered at The Foundry Kitchen to say goodbye to my nephew and his fiancé who are moving out of state. Angie did a great job of taking care of us! The food was good and drinks were even better. Love the chocolate old fashioned! read more

Amazing find for an I-80/I-90 traveller. Take a couple of minutes to go to revitalizing down Elyria. The Foundry is an outstanding restaurant and tavern. Awesome beer and bourbon list, great specials. Our meals (caprisi, wasabi deviled eggs, and spaghetti Asian were all delicious. Great, attentive service. Highly recommend for anyone passing thru, or staying at the courtyard or Hampton. Bonus: take an extra minute and go tourist the waterfall a block off the main drag. Beautiful! read more

Good food and great service. We found parking right in front of the restaurant. We like the fact that there's a good place right downtown in Elyria. read more

This place is incredible! Angie took care of us, she was attentive and made some great recommendations. I got the carnivore pizza, it was a great pie! My wife got the grilled chicken fajitas which were very tasty as well. We shared the raspberry cheesecake for dessert and didn't leave a crumb. As a side note, unrelated to the food, the ambiance was very cool! read more

I always had good food before but today was the worst. The sweet potatoes were not much bigger than the ball of sweet butter on top. One was so small and had so little flesh that it looked like it was just the shell of one that was previously eaten. It was returned. My portabello sandwich was small, dismal and disappointing. Very little of anything between the bread and could have passed for buttered bread at first glance. It had one small slice of mushroom on each half. It should have been called an onion sandwich as it had a few stringy carmelized onions and not much else. The pork chops were also different and not served as they had been in the past. One had a sliver of apple and the others had nothing. The fact that the sweet potatoes and my sandwich made it to the table is concerning. Never should have left the kitchen. read more

Omg! The dill pickle pizza! I just didn't want the fun of this pizza to end! Get a side of ranch to dip each bit in. Casey the bartender was kind and super attentive...but truly, they all are. Now.. if only they would allow dogs, I'd be here every day! read more

Friends had been telling us about $5 Monday Burger Night, so we finally made the trip. I love the atmosphere and the decor. There are old pictures everywhere as well as fun "characters". The bar is impressive and well designed. There are tons of seats, and at 5:45 on a Monday we were easily seated. Service was quick and our server was friendly. We all opted for the burgers, with different toppings. 2 had fries, and 2 had the chips. The burgers came in a timely manner and were hot. We all ordered medium well and they all came that way. I seldom have the burgers I order cooked to the temperature I prefer. I was thrilled! Plus, all the burger orders were right. We did ask for yellow mustard and mayonnaise on the side, and had to wait while they went back and found those condiments. My only complaint was with the chips and fries. The chips were soooooooo salty they were pretty much inedible. I think we got the leftover fries as they were all little pieces and didn't seem fresh. I would definitely return when I can try some of the great martinis they had as well as the craft beer. read more

Kept hearing good things about this place so we decided to come. We ordered the salsa and guac to start with. The salsa had a gross flavor, we didn't bother eating it and the guac was salty. I ordered boneless wings which were good and my partner ordered the burger and he liked it. The French fries were weird. I think it was the fact that they didn't taste fresh. On top of that we were sitting indoors and yet we were swatting away little bugs that kept trying to fly to our food. Our waitress seemed like she didn't want to be here. Overall, not a place I want to experience again. read more

I had my mom's 70 birthday party here. This place was amazing! They were so accommodating. I needed a place that could host up to 25 people and they had a special room, off to the side. If I wanted it private, there were doors. They let us come in early to decorate and we were there a total of 4.5 hours. The service was amazing. I am so thankful for the hospitality we were shown! Thank you, to everyone that helped us, last night! You all rock! read more

We go here regularly and love the food, drinks and decor. We've had the pizza, appetizers, many burger specials and most recently the taco salad on Taco Tuesday. It was just as awesome as all Then other food we've had here. Servers are always friendly and attentive to food allergies. This is a regular spot on our dinner out rotation. read more

I love this place! They have an outstanding homemade black bean burger and their homemade chips and French onion dip are delicious. The service was excellent and the ambiance is good, given it's a very large, very open room. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good food, a great list of taps and time to take it all in. read more

It was good bar food... (burger, pizza, salads, etc) But then we realized they had Fox News tuned on their TV's. We wont be back. We do not condone radical propagandism in the age of the Trump cult.
