The Foundry is home to Canterbury Brewers and Distillers and is the winner of Pub of the Year in the 2019 Kent Tourism Awards. There is a large bar area with an industrial feel, from which double doors open up into the brewery and the restaurant area, a lovely Kent barn. Three ales are usually on tap, plus keg-conditioned beers and ciders, which are mostly produced by Canterbury Brewers and Distillers. The taster palette of 5 beers, one-third of a pint each, is popular. The brewery's own bottled ale, whisky, gin, vodka and rum can be bought to take away. Pub food is available, often tables are pre-booked leaving little room for drinking only. CAMRA members can request a 10% discount on Canterbury Brewers real ales. Brewery tours can be booked, and the restaurant is available for functions. Many awards have been won for their spirits in 2023 and they have two whiskies in the world finals in March 2024, having won best in England for both.
