About Foundry Project
Our basement bar transforms into Manchester's most versatile party space, where exposed brick walls and industrial fixtures create the perfect backdrop for celebrations that guests actually remember. We've hosted everything from 30th birthday bashes to corporate Christmas parties down here, with room for up to 50 of your closest friends or colleagues. The Northern Quarter location means your guests stumble upon us easily - we're tucked into the Smithfield Market Buildings, just a quick walk from Victoria Station. For larger celebrations, we can open up the entire venue to accommodate up to 400 people, though most groups prefer the intimacy of our downstairs space where the music stays contained and conversations flow as freely as the cocktails. We've noticed birthday parties work particularly well here - the basement's separate bar means no queuing with the regular crowd upstairs, and our kitchen keeps the loaded burgers and small plates coming all night. The space has its own sound system, and we're happy to let you plug in your party playlist or bring a DJ. Our movable furniture means we can clear a proper dance floor or keep tables for seated celebrations - whatever suits your group. The beer garden upstairs provides a breather when needed, and yes, well-behaved dogs are welcome if you're planning a more casual daytime gathering. We've got baby changing facilities and high chairs too, making us surprisingly popular for christening parties and family celebrations. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout if anyone needs to share those party photos immediately, and our screens work well for photo slideshows during milestone birthdays. The weekly drinks deals apply to private bookings too, which helps keep the bar tab reasonable. From corporate team celebrations to hen parties, we've learned to adapt our space to match the energy your group brings.
