42 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Franklin

“We had a birthday celebration here and it was perfect! Wine and food were delicious. Bob and his crew were welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond for us. We will be back!!!!“

“My experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken was one of the best restaurant visits I have ever had, and a huge reason for that was an employee named Brady. From the moment I walked through the door, he greeted me with a smile and made me feel welcome. It is rare to meet someone who clearly enjoys helping customers, but Brady made that obvious from the very beginning. His positive attitude created a great first impression and made the entire visit enjoyable.

As I looked over the menu, Brady was patient and happy to answer my questions. He explained the different spice levels, recommended some of the most popular items, and made sure I understood what I was ordering. He never rushed me or acted annoyed, even though the restaurant was busy. Instead, he stayed calm, friendly, and professional the entire time. That level of customer service is something every restaurant should strive for because it makes customers feel valued and appreciated.

After placing my order, I noticed Brady continued treating every customer with the same level of kindness and respect. He greeted everyone with a smile, kept the line moving efficiently, and remained upbeat even during the busiest moments. It was clear that he takes pride in his job and genuinely wants every guest to have a great experience. Watching him work showed how much of a positive impact one employee can have on the atmosphere of a restaurant.

When my food arrived, everything was fresh, hot, and exactly as I ordered it. Brady made sure everything was correct before handing it to me and even asked if I needed anything else. That extra attention to detail showed he cared about making sure customers left satisfied. Small actions like that may seem simple, but they leave a lasting impression and encourage people to come back again.

Overall, I had an outstanding experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken because of Brady. His friendliness, professionalism, patience, and excellent customer service made my visit memorable from start to finish. Employees like Brady represent a business in the best possible way and show how important a positive attitude can be. I would gladly recommend this location to my friends and family, and I look forward to returning. Brady deserves recognition for the effort he puts into making every customer feel welcome and ensuring they leave with a smile.

If Brady became manager i would spend thousands on daves this isnt a.i i am the worlds fastest typer too“

“I have been craving nachos, so I asked my Franklin facebook group who makes the best ones around. Raillery got the most mentions, so I tried them out. Oh my goodness! These were the best nachos I’ve ever had. Loaded with toppings through and through, and there was so much, I took half of it home. I may try some of the other places people mentioned, but this will be a very tough act to follow. We always enjoy our meals there, and now there’s one more reason to visit again!“

“My wife and I go here just about every weekend...always great service and very friendly staff. The wait for a seat can look intimidating sometimes, but it's honestly never as bad as it seems. They do a great job of moving people in and out as quickly as they can. We've sorta become regulars and really don't like going anywhere else for breakfast.“

“Wonderful Anniversary dinner! The server was professional and personable and the food was delicious! Nice atmosphere in the dining room.“

“7th Wave is a great local brewery that has a good range of brews on hand. However, they also have some of the best pizza in the entire area. Great Neapolitan-style pizza, seriously. Been a fan for years and the beers have only improved.“

“Great ice cream, staff, and atmosphere! Plenty of flavor options. Highly recommend! They have great ice cream cakes as well.“

“A very authentic and family friendly Italian Old fashioned store the owners and the staff are are all family , my Dad and I go there every time we're in Milford. We're OG Gumba's as it gets, and we're never disappointed? try the De Parma Sub it's just short of a trip to Italy, but try anything even there pie is a mouth full of Amore'Grazzi Amico Meie,Jimmy and Banjo PadulaFranklin, MA“

“Absolutely exceptional food. You truly get what you pay for here. All home made authentic food and the atmosphere and staff is absolutely wonderful ❤️ if your looking for some real authentic food/ breakfast food b town diner is for you“

“Always great food, cooked to order, no microwaves! My all time favorite is their flagship sandwich, “The Commonwealth.” Piled high with freshly pulled pork, some pieces bigger than others, some with the delicious bark that defines great smoked pork. I love the optional cranberry habanero sauce on the side. Considering the sandwich has over a pound of pulled pork, plus a side ( I traditionally get fries, my wife likes the creamy Mac and cheese), not a bad deal for under $13 with tax.“

“This family-owned bakery and donut shop offers a warm, inviting atmosphere and is nut-free for peace of mind. They handcraft all of their baked goods, including custom specialty cakes (with advanced orders). The moment you walk in, you'll feel right at home. Their donuts are so delicious you'll find yourself craving more, and the coffee is top-notch, brewed with great quality beans. The menu features a variety of donuts, pastries, and breakfast sandwiches—all at affordable prices. In addition, they create custom cakes, cookies, and cupcakes for any occasion. This bakery truly goes above and beyond to deliver excellent quality and service to their customers.“

“I went for the first time this morning and the people that work here are so beyond kind. I also asked for a drink told the girl that works there (Emily) anything she likes make me. it was an absolutely delicious latte and the oatmeal cookie was delicious to. I will for sure be back.✌️ ❤️ ☕️“

“Had an amazing time. Alicia, the owner and her staff were amazing. very helpful and made us feel comfortable. If you're ever around Patriot Place make sure you stop in and give it a try.“

“We hosted our daughter’s bridal shower here and are so glad we chose it. The food was great / the atmosphere was great and Linda was amazing! Thank you for helping everything go smooth! Would recommend for a function“

“My husband and I have been coming here for a long time. I had never tried fruit wine when I first came, and I think Diamond Hill has been my point of reference since then. The atmosphere is cozy and quaint. Right now I’m enjoying a book and a bottle on the porch amidst a thunderstorm. They host small events and occasional craft markets. I’ve gifted bottles and invited friends to this “hidden gem” for a decade, and I will continue to do so. Thank you Diamond Hill Vineyards for being a special haven for me these past ten years.“

“I work in the outlets and Boba Station has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The food is consistently great—the boba is always fresh and flavorful, and the grilled cheese is the perfect quick, satisfying option during a busy day.

What really stands out is the service. The team is always friendly, welcoming, and efficient, even when there’s a line. It genuinely makes a difference when you’re on a break and want something quick but still high quality.

Definitely a go-to for me—I can’t wait to come back again!“

“Stopped in for first time for lunch today (after driving by too many times for years), great little spot with a friendly staff & old school menu options, I will be making a nuisance of myself more often ahead, highly recommended, thanx - Bo !“

“Always friendly staff, amazingly delicious food“

“We had a wonderful experience hosting a baby shower here! From the planning process through the day of the event, everyone was incredibly accommodating and helpful. They helped us fine-tune the menu and sangria/mimosa station, and everything—from the delicious food to the attentive service—was excellent.
Thank you to Chris for accommodating us from the initial booking through last minute details and a special thank you to Bethany, who was wonderful throughout the event and made sure everything ran smoothly. Our guests had a fantastic time, and we received many compliments. We couldn't have asked for a better venue!“

“Nice place. Good food. Keep it up!“

“Took my toddler here Monday and my only regret with coming here is that we’ve lived in North Smithfield for several years and this was our first time coming! My son (almost 3) loved seeing the cows and trucks that were set up there. We went inside to get a snack and he started having a mini meltdown because he wanted to go back outside. An employee (wish I got her name) came from behind the register and gave him a couple stickers and told me I was doing a great job, which really means a lot when you feel like you’re doing something wrong as a mom. I appreciate that woman more than she realized! 💕 I ordered a cream puff and 2 chocolate chip cookies. When the employee from behind the counter handed me my box she let me know she gave us an extra cookie! The employees really were amazing. My son loved his cookie, and I’ve been dreaming of that cream puff ever since 🤤 we can’t wait to come back and try the ice cream! Great snacks and even greater employees! Thank you for a great day!“

“The staff at CraftRoots is TOP. NOTCH. This place is run by a great group of people and the live music is phenomenal!“

“the best subs ever! The Bread!!!!“

“Chicken pad Thai was solid; ginger fish dish leaned so heavy on the ginger that the rest of the dish was a bit overwhelmed. Vegetable tempura was unlike any we’ve had; the batter coating was thick with a heavy flour presence. Good prices; very friendly service.“

“Everything about Tastys is incredible from the owners all the way down to employees!! The food they make and the service they provide day in and day out are 2nd to none!! Been to both locations and they are equally amazing!! They stand with their community more than anyone I know!! Thank you!“

“If you have not had wise guys deli in Cumberland your are seriously missing out!!!! The pizza is amazing! You guys know I’m a chef and a big cridict I also am not a fan of pizza unless it’s amazing! They nailed it!! We got the Knucky Thompson and the Donnie Brasco they were fire!!!! I don’t think I will be able to order pizza anywhere else! Can not wait to try there subs!!“

“We ate at the Cool Pickle tonight and stayed for karaoke. Kaitlin was awesome and the vibes were amazing. I even sang for the first time ever. Donna Marie made us feel so comfortable. We will definitely be going back. Thank you for accommodating our party of 20. We appreciate all the staff.“

“Excellent food and staff… very welcoming and fairly priced“

“Kimochi Rocks . Thanks. The tea and the atmosphere is wonderful. YOUR the greatest! The experience was wonderful. I recommend it to anyone.“

“A really solid old-school Chinese buffet that stays true to its roots and puts out good food. We were passing by and were surprised to find this in Rhode Island of all places. It's not like all these huge all-in-one Chinese, Japanese, Mongolian etc buffets which are now the norm, serving up quantity over quality. We went on a random weeknight and I had more seafood options than what the fancier places serve on the weekends at a higher price. Little neck clams, cherry stone clams, whole crabs, crawfish, 2 different shrimp dishes. Can't ask for more. Everything was tasty and there was a wide variety of ice cream for the kids. The employees were very attentive and friendly as well.“

“Recently met my two girlfriends at Estella’s for a much-needed catch-up and hangout, and I’m so glad we chose this spot! I had never been before, but it’s definitely now on my list of places to revisit.

The food was great, especially the Rasta pasta with chicken, wings, and sticky ribs, and the drinks were absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself was beautiful, with different seating areas that each had their own vibe.

But the absolute best part of our experience was our server, Kathy. She was such a pleasure- attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and drinks, and her energy was unmatched. She somehow knew when we were having more serious conversations and when to give us space, while still checking in at just the right moments. Whether it was giving us space, checking in, or simply bringing her sunshine and positive energy to the table, she truly made our night special.

We’ll definitely be coming back- not only for the delicious food and drinks, but to see Kathy again!“

“I went to several businesses around where I live and the iced coffee is hit or miss. Today in particular I went to two places and the iced coffee was just absolutely garbage. One place the ice coffee tasted old, other one had a very strange taste. I drove down to Coffee Connection and they never miss. The ice coffee today was just as perfect as it always is. I just wish it was closer to my house. The staff is always very polite. 5 Stars!!!!!“

“PieZonis has the BEST pizza and my favorite wings hands down!👌👍 Salads are always fresh and I love the healthy options on their menu.“

“Had dinner there last night before the show at the Stadium Theater. The stuffed mushrooms were some of the best I ever had and could be a meal all itself. Great fish and chips and the bartender made a perfect dirty martini! We have been to many shows at the Stadium and always saw this place but just never went for whatever reason. Now I may just take the ride just for dinner.“

“Amazing and delicious food“

“Great lunch today! Burgers were great spot on! Haven’t been there in year but will make a point to go back.“

“This Baskin Robbins is inside a Dunkin donuts so we almost missed it. But the staff was very patient with us and our 1 year old while looking at everything. Not sure if this cake comes in like this or someone in the back decorated it, but it's cool lol. Baskin Robbins ice cream cake for a dad.“

“Dang this place!!! We have been looking for a great pizza. Tried this place a few times years ago and refused to go back. Years later, our daughter recommended it, and she was right. These owners know the secret to a great pizza. Had it weekly for months. Then we made the silly mistake to try the fish & chips - wow. Our newest addiction. And now we branched out to calzone - shoot, it’s just so good. I refuse to try anything else…..until next week. And I have to mention just how nice every one who works there are. A MUST TRY (everything on the menu).“

“Love me my dunkies..every day every day....how do your remember my order? By the time I speak they're like oh you and your damn suga .yes gimme the damn suga and the syrup..and note syrup...u know it!!!!! Booooooomb..work work work....done! Chill sleep dunkies work chill sleep dunkies work“

“So I am a frequent Dunkin drinker. I actually don't drink coffee. I get the Dunkin refreshers. I used to always go to the location closest to my home in Lincoln, but they had a turnover on staffing and between it's either a long line or stuff isn't made right I had to find myself a new location. So I now go to this location. Can I tell you the staff is so friendly so welcoming they've gotten my order right every single time. There's never a line and the donuts are always fresh. I literally won't go to any other Dunkin now. Kudos to the staff here for running an operating a great business.“

“The food is good.They especially get 5-stars from me because I ordered delivery. And fell asleep. I woke up the next morning hungry, and five missed calls from the delivery driver ?.I called, and understandably they were upset but in the end replaced my food even though it was my fault. Thank you.“

“Great service, great food. Always professional, clean, hot!!!!!!! A+ employee's!!! This owner should be so proud of this team!!!!! We drive 25-30 minutes to this location. Why because they keep everything fresh, and clean inside and out!!!!“
