About this space

The Container Space is located next to the restaurant and main bar.

Ideal for food and drinks for groups of up to 40 people that want to be separate from other diners, without being completely shut out of the buzz.

For company Christmas celebrations at lunchtimes or in the evenings, mate groups, and December birthdays, Foundry Project is the hot ticket in town to hang the mistletoe and let the liquor flow.

Bar · 35 guests · July 2023

Booked for a group of 35 for a work social. The container space was perfect for our needs and the staff were were accommodating and diligent. The food came out on time and was great - no complaints from anyone which is rare for a big group. Booking process was straightforward and Jonny responded to our enquiries quickly. We will definitely book here again for any future events in the area.

Birthday Party · 40 guests · December 2022

They were so helpful from start to finish, being responsive with my enquiries and also so helpful on the night (even when we were a very drunken crowd). The space was even much better than the pictures showed!
