This is set up cafeteria style with various food, shops and desserts available for purchase. This place is great for large groups who want to try AMAZING food from all over the world. It's also great for families because each person can eat what they want, and the kids don't have to sit and wait to be served. Highly recommend Intergalactic for their burgers or Meltdown for their Mac n' cheese. If you're in town visiting or even a local, be sure to stop in and check it out! read more

We absolutely LOVE this food hall!! I discovered it because I was wanting to try a new place for oxtails and Chez Ali was were they said it was out. Since I worked in the Central West End at the time and I would spend my lunch hour at IKEA shopping for plants, why not go across the street and check them out. Chez Ali is my go-to currently for oxtails and fried plantains ever since my first visit. 4 Hens Creole Kitchen for their savory gouda grits and catfish. Expat for their five spice ribs and rooftop patio with live music. Fordo's Killer pizza for a delicious doughy pizza experience. City Foundry STL is a great addition to Saint Louis City's food and entertainment scene. They have a unique cinema, The Alamo, a creative interactive game show experience, various shops to meet your shopping addiction, a winery that not only has food and drinks but also acts as a concert venue. A fabulous food hall that boast an extensive array of options from burgers, popcorn, creole, chicken, poke, Thai, pizza and soooo much more and to top it all off as soon as you walk in there in front of you is a massive bar to meet your cocktail needs. This is a great spot for date night, group outings, girls night and to take out-of-towners. It is geared to be an all-in-one stop for ALL your entertainment needs and I'm still missing options that I haven't mentioned. read more

The city foundry in St. Louis is amazing. This place features shopping, dying, entertainment, and a great place to hang out. We came down here on a Friday night and did the game show experience, which was fantastic! We had such a blast. Afterwards, we went to the food court where we were overwhelmed at first with so many great choices, but we were able to find the perfect meal along with great drinks from the bar. They had a solo performer, singing, and playing his guitar. Fantastic entertainment I must say! The place is clean and safe and I can't wait to go back! read more

So many food options under one roof. Everyone in my family has different tastes and it's great that we can order at different places and still be together. Free covered pricing is a bonus. read more

City Winery. One of my favorite venues - WHEN the bar is available for seating. I only wish they allowed the bar to be open for all events. I prefer this to table seats. The acoustics are great, the food, while pricey is delicious. I try to attend as often as possible- especially if the bar is an option. read more

I never have a bad experience at City Foundry! There is something there for everyone to enjoy. You have a huge selection of foods, so everyone in the group will find something they love to eat! People are always so friendly and kind. Some places even go above and beyond to put a smile on your face. This is a must-visit spot for sure! Especially for the foodies! read more

The city foundry is a nice spot to bring family and friends because there is something for everyone. I do wish there was more local stl restaurants that have other restaurants outside of the foundry but the options are good! There is ample seating all around. Their huge parking lot is great read more

This place was huge with a lot of places to eat. We could only find craft beer though. Eh.

The City Foundry is honestly the best thing that's ever happened a St. Louis foodie. It's a food hall packed with all the local favorites, all in one spot. We go here all the time because it's just that good. Our staples? Fordo's Pizza, Toasted, Surest, Hello Poke, and Berry Box. The best part is wandering around, grabbing something small from each booth, and by the end, you're so full you need a nap. It's perfect. read more

City Foundry has a little something for everyone! Tons of food choices, tons of activities. I feel that the prices are a bit high for certain items. The ambiance is friends gathering here. read more

We gave this place a shot because the hype had been around for a while. I was meeting with some friends and I figured there was plenty of places to see and walking around sounded like a good idea. Honestly, at least for my very first visit, it was disappointing. The food prices were very steep and the flavors....desperately lacking. The KALBI taco place was horrible. I ordered a chicken bowl and it came with a ridiculously sour sauce that destroyed everything else on it. All I tasted was a sour/spicy sauce that comes in Chinese takeout. We asked how the portions were because they charge $5/taco and the lady said we won't disappoint! It's very filling. Wrong! Small tacos that left my husband hungry needing to order more food --somewhere else. My friends ordered from the Mediterranean and Mexican restaurant. Both also looked too little food for how much they paid. Think $25-30 for a small plate and drink. The saving grace of this place was the WAFFLE shop. Their food was awesome, portions were great, and service is excellent. Thank you, waffle place for saving the day. read more

City Foundry STL - Strawberry cookie butter waffle with ice cream - Food Court Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

City Foundry STL - A Foodie's Playground & Vibe Lover's Dream City Foundry STL is one of those places where you walk in and immediately think, "Why don't we come here more often?" Let's start with the food hall--aka the solution to every indecisive couple's date-night argument. Whether you're craving ramen, tacos, vegan comfort food, or just want to chase a waffle cone with a craft cocktail, it's all here. My partner and I have very different food personalities, and this is one of the few spots where we can both get exactly what we want and still eat together like civilized people. The options are diverse, delicious, and constantly rotating, which makes each visit feel fresh. The shops? Definitely cool and local-focused, with unique finds you won't see in a mall. That said, I'd love to see a few more vendors and pop-ups in the mix--it feels like there's room for this part to grow. City Winery? Always bumpin'. Whether there's live music, a private party, or just people sipping and vibing, it's got a great energy. It's the kind of spot where you can chill, people-watch, and maybe accidentally order a second glass (or bottle) because the patio's just that nice. Bottom line: City Foundry STL is one of the best spots in the city for food variety, community vibes, and just having a good time. Come hungry, bring your indecisive friends, and don't forget to stop by City Winery on the way out--you'll thank me later. read more

City foundry is rising and I'm more impressed each time I visit. More shops and entertainment is opening, more outdoor seating and dining is available and more rooftop views are available. Many venues and eateries are on my list to try and frequent. Many free parking spaces which is definitely a plus, vibe is relaxing and areas are clean ! read more

What an outstanding idea - so many great options to choose from! Great for big groups, kids, literally food of every kind! We went earlier in the day (11 AM) and would definitely recommend that if you're trying to get lunch without the rush! read more

This was my first time coming to the foundry and I'm so glad I came.Upon entering into the parking lot, i was a little confused as to how to get to everything. The parking lot sits across from an apartment building and if you aren't reading the signs like me, you will walk to the wrong place. Upon entering the actual Foundry, I noticed there were retail shops, a wine bar and tons of fun entertainment places. There is a food hall on sight with plenty of food options to fit everyone's needs. There is plenty of seating throughout. They do have a bar as well. Staff were constantly coming through cleaning and emptying trash. So you don't have to worry about the cleanliness of this place because it was spotless. I will definitely be back and I can't wait to visit the City Winery!!! read more

Very good time with a good atmosphere, looking for good food and/or drinks this is a spot to check out. The vibe is neat and overall I was really impressed and enjoyed my time. Next time I'm back in STL this will definitely be a revisit. read more

Kind of feels corporate despite so many local businesses. While I dislike the food hall vibe, I can't deny that I have only had delicious food from every vendor. I particularly like grabbing dinner and being able to walk to see a movie or play mini golf while only having to walk a few feet! The bar in the main food hall suffers from slow service as it is always packed and understaffed. The bartender always seems to try their best but lots of people make for a crowded and long wait. read more

Great spot within the food hall. They have many ice cream flavors and baked good to choose from. read more

What is there not to love about the City Foundry? They have everything! Do you have a friend that is a super picky eater, but you enjoy hanging out with them? Do you have a friend that tries a different diet every month? I promise you a fun evening out with both of those people. City Foundry is big enough that you can get a bunch of steps in just checking the place out, it's also small enough that you can find your friends or bump into people that you know. You may have already read that this destination is designed for young restaurateur that want to be ready their concept, but I would argue that this translates to better service too. Sometimes you can use the Foundry to decide if you went to try the brick and mortar location, but you can always bet on people that want their business to work. Service is always top shelf. They also have serval events a month and live music often, so be sure to check their socials before you head out! read more

The city foundry has come a long way since its inception. What began as a food hall with a few small shops has blossomed into a happening hub. The foundry has expanded to more restaurants, more experiences, and more events. The food is all fresh and local. And, it offers a diverse selection of grub for all preferences and palettes. A few of my favorites include subdivision, expat, fordo's, poptimism. If you aren't feeling food you can hit the shops or play some putt putt. If those do not sound appealing then you can play some virtual reality at sandbox vr. So many options for any and all! The foundry is a must hit for locals and visitors alike! read more

Myriad options for food and drink, with entertainment options for the whole family, + free parking! Like many who have reviewed City Foundry, I stumbled upon it while shopping nearby. While there are several signs requesting patrons vote it 'best food hall', I'd suggest STL promote the venue locally (as my suburban friends don't know about it). I struggle to highlight one vendor as I've never had a bad meal here. As I like fried foods + cajun flavors, 4Hens is my go to establishment. I truly enjoy the grilled cheese stand, Chicken Scratch, and wanna try the barbecue next visit. If you're looking to quench a 21 and over thirst, there's a central bar as you walk in, Puttshack (food + mini golf), Alamo Drafthouse (food, beverage, movie), City Winery (snacks + vino), or Expat BBQ (food + beverage). We were interested in trying Sandbox VR, but there were no open slots before close. If you haven't tried the *cough--overpriced* Museum of Illusions in another major city, you may wanna consider the opportunity. If you're staying downtown on a Sunday (struggling to find anything open) or any other day, drop by City Foundry! read more

Upscale food court with events, shops, and activities. We had some pizza which was a solid greasy cheese pizza, napolese style.

Such a cute place. So many options that you can't go wrong. I tried the jerk chicken from Chez Alin& it was amazing. There were a good amount of patrons there on a Tuesday afternoon. There are other activities to do here and parking is free. read more

City Foundry STL - Jerk chicken, rice & cabbage - Food Court Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

They have underground covered parking which worked out perfectly since it was raining. We only toured the food court with our granddaughter for lack of time. The food court had many options. We ordered food from an Afro Caribbean restaurant, a Jamaican, and a Mediterranean place. We didn't get to do all the activities available. All the services that were provided were top notch. My granddaughter ordered wings that were cooked to order with seasoned fries. She really enjoyed them. I ordered shrimp and grits that were very flavorful but they were just lukewarm. I liked the flavor. My wife ordered a chicken rice dish with cabbage. She thought it was great. I ordered a chicken shawarma wrap for my grandson. Jury is still out because we ordered it to go. I ordered Baklava which looked like it was made offsite. It was very flavorful. My granddaughter ordered ice cream with sprinkles and she loved it. The restrooms were very clean. The overall experience was very positive and we will return. read more

Parking in the garage was easier than expected (though bumps in the middle might assist all the... specially challenged... drivers who couldn't consider a 2 way traffic flow.

Great variety of food options for all appetites and ages. Great idea for large parties to gather in good weather, or not! Bar service was stellar and was knowledgeable. We were able to try several different restaurants, but unfortunately some were already shut down over an hour prior to closing. I expect hours at an establishment like this to clearly be upheld, this was not the case here. We had to pick 2nd & 3rd options because they turned us away stating "no more orders for the night". Very frustrating! read more

I had a great grilled cheese, my dates got African food, a burger and a sandwich. There is something for any appetite- and lots of price points. The bar served good cocktails and the service was friendly. There is tons of seating and would be great for a big group. Free parking in the garage was a bonus! read more

What's this place all about? It doesn't have a dominant restaurant. It doesn't have a destination bar. The prices are set like this is a downtown location. I think this place has tons of potential but it doesn't have an anchor bar/restaurant that would bring me in and once I was there I wanted to leave because of the lack of a scene. There are some unique shops in here but that's about it. Sorry just wasn't impressed. read more

I can't believe there are still locals who haven't been to the Foundry STL! This place has it all... even a grocery store! The Foundry STL also pivoted last Wednesday from a promotional event to a fund raiser for tornado relief, resulting in over $15,000 in donations that will go directly to St. Louis residents impacted by the storm. Go for the awesome draft house theater, the wine bar/concern venue, the "something-for-everyone food court", the ample parking, and stay for the fun, entertainment, and the enchanted night life. read more

What a fun experience! Our group was able to get individual options to satisfy each person. I tried Press which has various takes on waffles. I went with the churro waffle, which was delicious and stacked high with whipped cream. My partner got the Cristo which he enjoyed with a slightly sweet jam. We were sent a text when our order was ready, so we could sit anywhere and pick it up when it was ready. The young woman serving us was kind and helpful. We also got coffee on our way out, which was delicious. Everyone in our party was eager to come back and try more of the many options. They have free garage parking as well. read more

I'm Always Down For A Sweet Treat. City Foundry Was A Great Experience! I Would Definitely Return To Try More Small Businesses! read more

I actually found the Foundry completely by surprise while I was walking eastward aimlessly while departing IKEA. This is basically an indoor food hall with a large number of options. It's probably not worth it going into each one individually since a lot of these places just rent a space on a short term basis, so there's no guarantee any one given place will still be there long term. Still, all your options pretty much seem to be there: mexican, baked goods, burgers, bbq... they even had some creole stuff, i seem to recall, so the options are good I personally tried a smoothie and poke. I thought the poke was fine but kind of expensive, though frankly everything in the city foundry seems a little pricy. If it's the price to pay for something like this (the only thing like this?) in St. Louis it might be worth it, since you probably only come here once in a while read more

There are so many food options here! I spent some time just waking around and looking at all of the food stalls. It was hard to decide what I wanted, because I wanted everything. I ended up getting a short rib rice bowl from Kalbi Taco Shack, a Mexican Asian fusion joint. It was excellent, let me tell you. If you're so inclined, you can read more about my meal at Kalbi Taco Shack's Yelp page. City Foundry STL is huge. It's housed in what used to be an old electric company, and it still maintains a lot of the electric company charm. Look up, and you'll see hooks and cranes hanging from the ceiling. Look around you and you'll see pipes and gadgets that used to function in the original building. It's really neat that City Foundry kept a lot of the soul of the building, while also modernizing it and making it functional for its new life: a place for people to gather and eat great food. I visited on a weekday during lunch, and it was bustling with people. That made me happy, because I like to see a busy food hall, especially one that's cool like this one. Fortunately, there are also lots of tables (many picnic bench tables) to sit at, and there's also seating outdoors. I didn't have any trouble finding a seat. I really want to come back to St. Louis and try some more of the restaurants at City Foundry. There are so many options and so little time! read more

In a great location and the layout of the foundry is amazing, lots of space to sit and enjoy an the food option are endless. The variety and amount of restaurants provided is more than enough to find what you like. My boyfriend and I got different things from different places and split them, which in my opinion is the way to go to be able to try more of the food! The service was also exceptional and very easy to navigate, everyone was very kind and we had no issues, besides being very full!! read more

I've been wanting to visit the foundry since it's opened but every time we have visited STL but sometimes we just forget that it exists. We finally remembered when my family of 15 couldn't decide on where to eat so I remembered, let's try the foundry since there's a bunch of different restaurants and everyone can just get whatever they want. That's what we did and we were able to try/sample a little bit of everything which was awesome! We came here on a Friday and during mid day, so it wasn't busy at all and the parking garage was empty. By the time we left, it was getting a little busy as vendors were coming in to set up for night events. I love that parking was free! The inside of the foundry was not as big as I thought it would be. It's actually one of the smallest food halls I've been to, I hope they're able to expand somehow on the future. read more
