Conveniently located in the heart of Melbourne CBD, Foundry Kitchen & Bar sits on Level 6 of Mercure Melbourne La Trobe Street, at 492 La Trobe Street. Southern Cross Station and nearby tram stops are just a short walk away, while Queen Victoria Market, Flagstaff Gardens and Marvel Stadium are all within easy reach. Melbourne Airport is also easily accessible, making Foundry a convenient choice for guests travelling from outside Melbourne.
Inside, the restaurant bar, open kitchen and striking marble island create a relaxed and welcoming setting. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in natural light and offer views across Flagstaff Gardens and the Melbourne skyline, whether you're gathering for an intimate dinner or a larger celebration.
Food is central to the Foundry experience. Our seasonal menu brings people together with dishes made for sharing, celebrating and connecting. Pair your meal with drinks from the restaurant bar, while our team takes care of the details.
