We’ve got just the right shot of espresso to pair with your morning news at Iron Worx. The Foundry, our historic music venue, served as the original iron foundry, and was reimagined to honor the site’s roots and preserve this piece of Athens’ fine past. The multi-tiered structure and soaring beams welcome crystal clear views, stellar acoustics and a place to celebrate the detail and dedication to craft. The Foundry Bar & Grill stocks every local beer imaginable and offers fun fresh fare whether you are catching a new artist or you’re just looking for a place in town to hang out and make some history of your own.
