Book NowAbout The Foundry
Tucked into Midland’s historic railway yards, The Foundry delivers generous, inventive all-day brunch and sharp barista brews in a leafy square. Regulars head straight for the breezy alfresco courtyard—a quiet pocket away from traffic where dogs get their own water bowls and kids have room to roam. The kitchen turns out plates with serious attention to detail, from chilli scramble and Turkish eggs to thick Dutch-style pancakes and smashed avo piled with dukkah and feta. There is no surcharge for alternative milks or gluten-free bread swaps, either. Order a cup pulled with local Bolt coffee beans and finish with a slice of house strawberry cake topped with lime meringue.
- Historic railway courtyard: Settle into open-air tables overlooking Railway Square, where dogs have dedicated water bowls and kids can wander freely.
- No dietary surcharges: The kitchen skips the customary extra charge on gluten-free bread swaps and alternative milks.
- Inventive all-day brunch: Plates lean generous and creative, featuring chilli scramble, Turkish eggs, and Dutch-style pancakes alongside Bolt coffee.

Creative, Generous Breakfast & Brunch Dishes
Generous morning meals showcase creative dishes such as Turkish eggs, chilli scramble, and inventive pancake stacks, served alongside high-quality barista coffee.
The food was generous and delicious! Hubby loved the Turkish eggs and we appreciated a different take on the usual brekky options. The coffee was faultless too.
Heather Winter No Extra Charge for Gluten-Free & Plant Milks

no extra charge for GF bread, which was decent, nor alternative milks (has Milk Lab Almond Milk) - impressed and thankful on behalf of all those who have intolerances
A D Secluded Courtyard Setting in Railway Square
Tucked away within the historic Midland railway workshops, the cafe offers an open alfresco courtyard looking onto Railway Square.
Looking far to the Railway Square open space and the peaceful scene, joining the quiet environment, is so fabulous.
Ernest Li Quiet & Leafy Historic Foundry Ambiance
Nestled off main traffic corridors among historic foundry buildings, diners enjoy an unhurried, peaceful atmosphere suited for unwinding.
Nice location in the midst of all the foundry buildings and off the main road in a nice leafy courtyard.
Kim L. Dedicated Dog-Friendly Outdoor Hospitality
Outdoor tables provide ample space and hospitality for patrons dining with pets, featuring readily provided dog water bowls.
One of the staff (possibly owner) was quick to fill up the dog water bowl and welcome us to sit down.
Troy Pearce Spacious Alfresco Layout for Families
The open alfresco space provides plenty of room for families with young children to spread out and relax comfortably outdoors.
Great spot for kids to run around too as it has a massive Alfresco area overlooking a large outdoor space where you can watch the kids and enjoy your coffee.
