Foundry Is Coming to Davis Square, Somerville

A new restaurant, lounge, and theater is coming to the Davis Square neighborhood of Somerville, moving into the space vacated by a home goods store.

Based on information from one poster on our Twitter page and another on the Chowhound site, a sign is up at the old Bowl & Board location on Elm Street for Foundry, which, according to Grub Street Boston, is going to be an American brasserie with a speakeasy lounge and a theater that will handle everything from comedy shows to music to children's theater. Foundry, which will be run by the same person behind The Independent and Precinct Bar (both in Somerville's Union Square), is expected to feature a raw bar, more than 30 beers on tap, and 100 bottles of wine from which to choose.

[July 22 update: Based on a job post on Craigslist, Foundry is planning on opening later this summer. Their website is currently under construction, but according to the restaurant's Twitter page, the site should be up soon.]

[September 3 update: According to a Facebook post from the Executive Chef of the restaurant, Foundry will be opening on Monday, September 6.]

The address for this upcoming restaurant, lounge, and theater will be: Foundry, 255 Elm Street, Somerville, MA, 02144. The website will be at: http://foundrydavis.com/
