About Lux Foundry
Once an oven manufacturer, now a cafe. It’s a story alright.
Our Building
Built in 1889 our heritage-listed warehouse was the former Brunswick Gas & Coke Company.
It is the last retort house to remain from several gas-making works built in the nineteenth century around Melbourne.
The Lux Foundry purchased the site in 1906 and the warehouse served as the company’s workshop for making their popular Lux brand stoves.
This continued until the late 1950s when the firm was taken over by the Ferrier Company.
Our Cafe
Lux Foundry is a bustling warehouse cafe in the back streets of Brunswick.
Serving locals for over 13 years, our modern menu offers innovative dishes using locally sourced ingredients.
Our expansive courtyard is perfect for sunny days and is also pooch-friendly. We use great quality products across the board, and we’re passionate about supporting our amazing local suppliers
