Went with group of friends (12). Service was slow as expected on a Saturday evening and big group. Took 15 min to get second beer. I ordered boneless wings and got bagged nuggets with sauce. For a place known for their wings it was disappointing. Friends seem to like their food. (No complaints). We also had a guest of a thumb sized cockroach crawling up the wall. It will be awhile before we return, if we do.
One of the best cheeseburger I have had. Waitress did a great job. Atmosphere was pretty neat, good story on the menu about the history. All around good place to go. Thanks
The only thing keeping this from being 5 stars is the service is a tad slow. I appreciate not hovering or asking after every bite, but checking after someone else servers the order there were a few things we would've added. All in all good food and experience. Just don't go if on a timeline.

The Willard is a popular local spot, known for its delicious food and friendly service. The Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich is a standout, described as juicy, tender, and served hot. The tenderloin sandwich is so good! The breading was crispy and seasoned well. The nachos are also a hit, easily feeding a group of four. The Willard offers a great atmosphere and a cold beer to accompany your meal. With excellent service and a wide range of options, including pizza and wings, The Willard is a great choice for a night out. The tenderloin has even won the best tenderloin in Indiana award. Customers describe it as incredibly soft and never tough or chewy, likely due to the careful preparation. The breading is golden brown and crispy, adding to the overall delightful experience. The servers are always sweet and make customers feel appreciated, acting like they truly enjoy their jobs. The atmosphere at The Willard is lively and inviting, with a vintage-inspired vibe that seems to be a theme throughout the town. The menu offers the classic Chicken Fried Sandwiches that the state is known for. While the dessert selection is limited, the overall dining experience is worth the visit. This is a very popular place to eat in downtown Franklin. The food and service is excellent. A few of us tried their breaded tenderloin sandwiches because we heard they were great and they did not disappoint! I like the indoor and covered outdoor seating options. Great service. Cool building. Great place. food was amazing. Highly recommend.
