If someone told you five years ago there would be a bar below street level downtown where you’d find a buzzing, contemporary, forward thinking social club of sorts where intellectuals, young professionals, and hipster types would all co-mingle while sipping classic cocktails, local craft drafts, and limited release whiskeys, you probably wouldn’t have given the concept much promise. But today, once you descend the concrete stairwell set in front of the multi-story building at 213 Fayetteville St. and enter what was originally the building’s crawl space, you’ll witness this reality in full.
Now just over 18 months old, Foundation has gained a following not only for its locally and regionally sourced liquid varieties, but also for its responsible architectural approach, highlighting sustainable design efforts within its interior.
Thanks for the blog!!! I've been a few times and it's really a great bar. It's a little on the small side, but I like it because I can have great conversations with friends. The walls are incredible and its fun to think that you are in the basement of an old building.
