About Foundry Aberdeen
Foundry Aberdeen is a pub in Aberdeen at 41-43 Holburn St, where live sport on the screens shares the week with disco nights at the weekend. Football and other live sport are shown, and the staff will put on the match a customer has come to watch. The food menu includes burgers, among them a cheese and bacon burger and a chicken mac & cheese burger. A boozy brunch runs with cocktails alongside the food, with drinks included. Tables can be booked in advance, including online through the pub's website.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the bar and floor staff, describing them as helpful, quick to serve and willing to go out of their way, with a couple saying they never waited for a drink. Food comes close behind. The steak and ale pie earns praise for its filling and sturdy crust, the cheese and bacon burger arrived hot and quickly, and a chicken and mac and cheese burger is called lovely. The boozy brunch with cocktails also draws enthusiastic comments from two reviewers. Football and other sport bring in groups, and diners describe a lively, truly Scottish atmosphere, though one notes there are not many TVs. Complaints are small. One reviewer found the server who poured their first pint dour, another wished the mash had more pepper, and a solo diner could not book a table online for one person. One visitor says staff put on the match they had come to see.
