    Easily the best new gym in the city!! Foundry Bank continues it legacy delivering the City's hardest workouts in the form of Strongman, Sweat and Combine classes. Love to come here before work to start my day feeling strong and make use of all their gorgeous facilities too (underground heating... don't you know!). Get yourself down here to join one of the strongest, funnest, brilliant gym communities in the city <3

    I was looking for a place where I could train consistently and get the support of professional coaches to increase my Strength and Conditioning levels. I started my 21-day challenge in October 2021 and it was a great experience. During those 3 weeks, I trained 5 days every week and focused on my nutrition. At the end of it, I could already see great results on my body and mind. The Foundry Bank is a community of people, who are prepared, supportive and willing to help. I am now a member of this gym and I am looking forward to seeing the long-term results on my health and fitness level!

    Fantastic new addition to the Foundry family, excellent facilities and easy location. I like the separate rooms for classes and PT, keeps things running smoother for everyone. It's worth knowing the gym is down a little side alley off Lombard St, so can be tricky to spot at first, but there's a huge welcome sign if you look down the alley. High quality classes and small group training, and the team have proven and refined the format elsewhere over a few years now. Cannot recommend highly enough if you are looking for strength based training in the City. Worth the investment in yourself.

    I love the Foundry, the trainers are amazing. The classes & small group training sessions are unique, and well-crafted to all abilities whilst pushing your limits. You'll leave very tired but very satisfied. The new Bank branch is a welcome addition to the family and provides a top-notch training environment in the heart of the city. Love the larger-than-life wall displays of members working up a sweat.

    Great sports massage from Inka. I was suffering from a tight back from playing golf and squash. Inka gave me a good sports massage that helped relieve the pain I was suffering from. If you need a sports massage and are based in Central London, you should go to see Inka.

    Fantastic to see the latest addition to The Foundry - Bank deserves its place in the city. Love the main gym and a separate area for semi private training, and the changing rooms are to die for. Foundry Bank combines the gritty strongman element with the sophistication of the city, and as always the classes are the best you’ll find in London, with the trainers pushing individuals to their own limit whilst building the team community.

    Foundry changed my life - amazing trainers who know what they’re doing. The small group PT sessions are great as they add a group dynamic and keep you accountable

  • 5/5 Henry I. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is incredible. Actually life changing in my case. Absolutely not your average gym. The most encouraging, inclusive, welcoming and rewarding gym/PT experience I’ve known. Strong recommend.

    Did the promo trial and LOVED it. Have signed up for a membership to pick up when my trial ends. Both classes and PT are absolutely banging, everyone there is really nice and helpful, well located for the City and all of the facilities are top notch. I have done F45 and liked it, but much prefer the classes at The Foundry - the equipment is better and they are much more varied and fun as I think the workouts are somewhat up to the discretion of each instructor rather than beaming out the same thing on TVs worldwide for weeks on end. The Foundry is expensive but you get what you pay for. Everything is 10/10.

    I've in my 3rd week at The Foundry and it's so much better than other gymns I've used in the past. They have small group personal training sessions which really help with getting you stronger but taking into account any injuries you have as well as various classes focusing on certain activities. All the trainers have been really welcoming, they all know your name and it really seems like you're part of a community rather than just another membership number.

    Best gym I’ve been to. Top of the range kit, and top class instructors

  • 5/5 Rohit B. 8 months ago on Google • 19 reviews
    You absolutely have to try the Foundry. They've figured out the magic sauce of very well designed workouts that push your limits, great instructors, community and much more. The endorphins are addictive.

  • 5/5 Stephen F. 3 months ago on Google • 15 reviews New
    1 year in and blown away. Having tried several gyms in the City over the last 10 years, this is without doubt the best training experience I’ve had. Special shout out to Jason, Georgie, Ben and Erin who are all outstanding coaches.

  • 5/5 Sam T. 2 years ago on Google • 15 reviews
    Used to come here quite a lot through class pass and by far the best of all the different places I tried. The workouts are TOUGH but so much fun. What I love about the trainers at the foundry is that they bring their personality to the workout. All of them have great energy, will push you but also make sure you enjoy the workout. Also it has a great community vibe and met some awesome people through the Foundry as they encourage group workouts. I’ve moved abroad but I really miss it and have been trying to find a replacement where I live now but with no luck 😭

  • 5/5 Adam R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great setup with energising instructors which ends up being a great workout. I really like it.

  • 5/5 Positive M. 2 years ago on Google
    Really nice team, great facilities, classes are challenging but I felt well looked after! Doesn't have the typical cliquey gym vibe :)

  • 5/5 Drew S. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent instructor, takes the time to know everyone and push to everyone’s individual limits without going to far. Good atmosphere, great venue

  • 5/5 Justine B. 2 years ago on Google
    The coaches are amazing, the members are friendly, the classes are great - so glad I made the decision to join.

  • 5/5 Roberta M. 2 years ago on Google
    Love the vibe and the instructors at Bank, great place to train and improve, the 21 days challenge is the best way to start the journey!

  • 5/5 Tan Y. 3 years ago on Google
    PTs at The Foundry are very knowledgeable and know how and when to push you in the right way. Believe me when I say nothing escapes their eyes..miss that rep? Using too light a weight? They can spot you from a mile (even virtually, yep). This place isn't just a gym, it's a community made up of positive people who help each other to become better, not just physically but also mentally. Also props to them for making it a COVID safe place to workout!

    I absolutely love the Foundry! It's the first gym I've gone to that has made me want to fully commit and return again and again. As someone who is looking to lose weight, I often feel insecure when joining gym classes, but the Foundry's classes are arranged in a way that make me feel motivated but also comfortable with my own fitness level. The gym is also top notch and beyond worth the price of the classes.

  • 5/5 Jai 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing trainers in here - always work you harder than last time and ensure your workouts push you further than you realised you could go. The customer service is top-notch, and facilities are 5* quality.

  • 5/5 Christopher M. 2 years ago on Google
    The foundry is hands down my favorite gym. Between the friendly staff, knowledgeable coaches and all around positive atmosphere there isn’t anywhere else I want to train. They have a good variety of classes that easily scale to your abilities. Everyone is always encouraging and leaves with a (exhausted) smile on their face.

  • 5/5 Emma M. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing training that is well-planned and effective. But really, it's the personal touch and community that makes this place amazing. The trainers all knew my name within a week, and the locker room is always friendly and chatty. I've already made new friends via the gym - can't say that about any other gym I've joined!

  • 5/5 William H. 2 years ago on Google
    Because everyone here is great. The welcome at the door, the sessions, the community. The PTs know their stuff and you can really enjoy your time with them and get results

  • 3/5 Isabella V V. 1 year ago on Google
    I used to love this place. Unfortunately, the business changed and the classes are not as good as it used to be. It used to have a lot of options and times. Now, it's very hard to book a class as it has only one class in the afternoon. Miss the old days. Due to the lack of number of classes I'm not going to Foundry anymore. It is a shame!

  • 5/5 Jakob S. 1 year ago on Google • 3 reviews
    Amazing place! I have been member for over a year and can only recommend Foundry Bank. The Team is great - always there to help and guide you to achieve your goals. The place to be if you want to start a healthy fitness lifestyle.

  • 5/5 Scarlett W. 3 years ago on Google
    If you like lifting heavy things, do it here.

  • 5/5 jodie t. 4 years ago on Google
    This was one of the best classes I’ve ever been to! The trainer was amazing and pushed me to do more than I thought I could.. great vibe and great people highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Chantelle-Shakila T. 4 years ago on Google
    As a recovering salad dodger and a certified non morning person, I never thought I would see the day I would bounce out of bed at 7am to get to the GYM and EXERCISE! I cannot thank the team at The Foundry enough for their support and their carefully constructed classes. From the FOH staff to the trainers, everyone takes the time to get to know you and make it feel like a second home that you actually want to visit!

  • 5/5 Corine S. 4 years ago on Google
    The trainers at the foundry are doing an absolutely phenomenal job always coaching you to perform at your max. the sense of community at is like no other gym in London!

  • 5/5 Chirag M. 4 years ago on Google
    I'm assuming this is going to be the first of many 5 star reviews. This is a really well kitted out gym with extremely professional trainers who are friendly and adapt based on your needs and goals. I would highly recommend giving the Foundry a go if you want to see results at any of their locations, albeit this one is really swanky!

  • 5/5 Megan J. 3 years ago on Google
    Good equipment, excellent trainer (Sophie) and wonderful members. I don't believe a gym could be any better

  • 5/5 Sarah P. 4 years ago on Google
    Love the Foundry bank. I have attended two of the Monday night Strongman classes & it’s brilliant. Challenging & fun in a really friendly environment.

  • 5/5 Dorothy B. 3 years ago on Google
    The best gym in London.

  • 5/5 Reece M. 3 years ago on Google
    The strong class really pushes your boundries. I leave every week half dead but keep going back for more!

  • 5/5 Vijay D. 3 years ago on Google
    All classes and P.T sessions have been great. The P.T's are very knowledgeable and on the ball. Really fun to work with and not forgetting a crazy yet safe workout!

  • 5/5 David B. 3 years ago on Google
    Great classes, great coaches that help push you to do better than what you think you can do and an all round great environment

  • 5/5 Tom V. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing gym and coaches. The classes are brilliant as well as semi private training. It’s a great atmosphere and have worked really hard to make it safe to go back. Cannot recommend it enough as a place that is both fun and gets great results. The best gym I have been a part of!

  • 5/5 Francesca S. 4 years ago on Google
    Just haven't been able to find a gym I love more. I don't know how they create such a good atmosphere but my goodness it makes a difference. They remember your name, they know if you're new (in a good way). Your current level of fitness absolutely doesn't matter. Go have fun.

  • 5/5 Gerard G. 4 years ago on Google
    Best gym in the city

  • 4/5 Luce 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic location. Great coaches. The equipment is in great condition. Changing facilities are clean, towels and hairdryers are avaliable

  • 5/5 Sarah L. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing new space near bank, facilities are top notch. And because it is the same Foundry team as is behind their existing spaces in Vauxhall and Old Street, the strength and cardio training is brilliant and the community as friendly and welcoming as they come. Go for one City Strongman class and you will absolutely be back for more!

  • 5/5 Kane E. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic new venue for The Foundry. Great trainers, great equipment and a real team spirit to your workouts 💪🏻

  • 5/5 Caroline G. 4 years ago on Google
    Loving the new space, another great addition to the #WTSB community - great to see a separate PT Area as well. Definitely will be back there soon for both a class and PT session.

  • 5/5 CallumH94 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, straight from front desk to the coaching team. Great welcoming atmosphere for all people and all fitness levels. Classes are fantastic.

  • 5/5 Samantha A. 3 years ago on Google
    The trainers are amazing and facilities are spot on! Also the Foundry family are so welcoming and friendly - something very difficult to find especially in the business area of a city!

  • 5/5 Online Personal Trainer Jasmine L. 3 years ago on Google
    Love the classes at the Foundry. Each one is really different to the other and we're working in different energy systems. The instructors are very knowledgeable and most of all its really fun. Last Friday's Christmas Fun finisher was very festive indeed ;)
