01 Project Brief

Create a Sports Bar for the Medallion Club

Greater Group, through our specialist hospitality division TableFive, developed Foundry as a dedicated sports bar within Marvel Stadium’s Medallion Club. The venue combines a bar, dining, screens and entertainment spaces in one environment designed around the periods before, during and after an event.

The brief required a venue capable of serving different patterns of use across the day. Guests might arrive for a meal before the game, meet for drinks, return during a break or remain after the event. The layout needed sufficient service capacity and a mix of settings to accommodate these different groups.

02 Our Approach

Build the Room Around the Bar

Greater Group positioned the bar at the centre of the plan, making it the primary service point and visual anchor of Foundry. Dining tables, informal seating and standing areas are distributed around it, creating clear zones for meals, drinks and larger groups.

Screens are positioned throughout the venue to keep the game visible from the dining and social areas. Entertainment spaces extend the use of the venue beyond food and beverage, with the overall plan supporting both seated dining and higher-volume standing occasions.

03 Project Outcome

A Social Base for Medallion Club Guests

Foundry gives Medallion Club guests a dedicated base around an event. Guests can meet for drinks, sit down for a meal, watch the game from the venue and continue gathering after play.

The combination of bar, dining, screens and entertainment also gives Foundry the infrastructure to operate as a function venue, supporting corporate and private events outside the match-day programme.
