Aside from that, this leading jazz club is also an appropriately stylish and laid-back spot to hang out with friends on the weekend.

The club has hosted an almost countless array of local and international jazz acts – expect there to be high-quality sounds and a buzzing atmosphere throughout the week.

Foundry 616 regularly plays host to events ranging from the Sydney International Women's Jazz Festival in November to local up-and-comers. Emma park, Frances Madden, Sandy Evans, Mike Nock, Ten Part Invention, Paul Grabowsky, JazzGroove Mothership Orchestra, Coltrane Project, Greasy Chicken Orchestra, Dereb the Ambassador, Mariam Sawire, Sydney Con Big Band, Dale Barlow, Alister Spence amongst many others.

Foundry 616 offers a full menu, inspired by New Orleans and Southern US flavours on Thursday-Saturday and a bar menu on Monday-Wednesday with pizza, burgers, ribs, salads and desserts. Open late on the weekend, easy parking, sophisticated surrounds – is there much more one needs? Foundry 616 is available for private functions and corporate events and can be contracted for catering as well.

Super authentic Shanghainese cuisine. I am looking forward to revisit again. Love the Fish noodles and enjoy the Shanghainese fried dumplings. Thanks for offering such delicious recipes.

Amazing intimate jazz venue with class acts. Just saw The Catholics on Saturday. Always a sure bet. Fantastic to see Sandy Evans still blowing us away - literally! The food is ok but not tge main point of going to this venue. Though I must say the hot chocolate and biscoff cheesecake were spot on.

Sensational little club. Obviously with any music venue the acts can vary - we loved the Sade Experience on our visit - but what impressed me was the general vibe, excellent food and friendly efficient staff. A great place for a fun night.

Firstly the music was fantastic but everything else was rubbish. The food was horrifically bad & the choice of drinks were limited & expensive. It was dirty & had no vibe. Sydney deserves much better from one of its only jazz clubs.

Understaffed, underprepared, overpriced, but gosh darn the female singer was incredible. Worth the $17 tequila shots.
