Unfortunately this time the service was not very good. Waiter did not pay attention to details. He failed to bring a bread basket to the table. After a long wait we decided to call him to the table and we asked for gluten free bread. When he brought it to the table he only brought enough for one person, not the table. I then asked if we could have a bread basket like all of the other tables. He said of course. Also we had asked for Lime slices for our drinks when we ordered them and he had to be reminded. I had ordered the Seared Salmon entree and it came coated in salt and not edible. They replaced it and it came very under cooked and not as much salt but still not desirable. I just kept it and ate it anyway. I went ahead and tipped him the traditional 20% just to show no hard feelings. I think he needs more training to pay attention to details. I have always had very good service and food in my many prior experiences there.

We took some people there for breakfast; our friends thought there was a buffet- I guess that has been discontinued. They give you massive amounts of food, but it was only so-so; generally, kind of uninspired. The service was spotty and kind of strange. I was brought bread that was toasted on one side which came with neither butter nor jam. My omelette was cooked properly but it was not hot and I didn’t receive my bacon until breakfast was half over. I wouldn’t go there again.

Went before a concert at SNHU. Had a 6pm reservations was seated promptly, but waited over an hour for our food. A partyof 12 who arrived later than us got their food first. The manager tried to excuse this by saying they ordered promptly - so did we. Maybe our server forgot to put our order in? Main meals only. Anyway, once we got our food (sandwiches and a salad) the food was ice cold. I’m sure if it was served as it should have been it would have been better.

Ate outside on the patio before the Phish show at SNHU - great relaxed service and excellent food as usual. The staff let us park our car as well for the duration of the show in the lot.

This was our third visit to the Foundry, and again, it was very enjoyable. The food was delicious and specialty cocktail choices were nice options. I also appreciated that the hostess worked to seat us in an area at a table we preferred.

Salmon and scallops were delicious. We had a table by the river for our anniversary. The waitress was delightful and brought us some chocolates with Happy Anniversary written on them.
