Bangers & Mash

Rooted in the proud tradition of the United Kingdom’s public houses as a genial gathering place for convivial eating and drinking, Jones Wood Foundry is a food driven pub. The menu, created by Chef/Owner Jason Hicks, represents the best of time-honored British culinary traditions that have been reinvigorated for 21st-century palates.

Every aspect of this Upper East Side pub and restaurant has been carefully crafted to evoke a sense of ownership among patrons, to assure they feel it’s “theirs, an extension of their homes”. Jones Wood Foundry is always warm and welcoming for a quick drink at the expansive bar, casual snack, and conversation at the communal table overlooking a secret courtyard garden, or for a leisurely meal in the cozy dining room.

From the locally sourced ingredients fueling the constantly evolving menu to the vintage furnishings painstakingly collected by Hicks, Jones Wood Foundry embodies a nurturing sense of homey comfort–a reassuringly relaxed throwback to a less hectic era.
