16 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Franklin

“We have always had a wonderful experience here. Might I say, we probably go a little too much. Lol. Out of the many times we have been here in the 2 years since they opened, I have had 1 mobile order mess up with the wrong sandwich. I came right back and they more than made up for it. The staff is always so kind, food is fresh and I really love the fun, kid events that they plan and the charitable things they do for our community. Highly recommend!“

“Everybody knows that the town of Franklin is probably one of the only towns in Western North Carolina. Which has waged this ongoing weird sort of lame war on the homeless. There are virtually zero resources for those who are struggling severely to get and keep some work or to maintain some sense of dignity. While this is my lifelong community's greatest shame, and embarrassment, by which Franklin sort of quietly suffers--its Bojangles has been an otherwise brilliant, quiet and unexpected little exception to this gay little rule. The restaurant really has done a great job of standing out And being part of the decency of our locals. As someone who is also struggling and homeless out here in the cold without a place or family to help me, this restaurant has gone above and beyond to help me simply eat a warm meal every once in a while. I highly recommend this restaurant.. It's gotta be pretty f****** embarrassing, too. Treat a homeless man any differently than how this Bojingles does. I call it... Hobojangles! =D“

“Love the new sandwich sizes.“

“We visited this spot on a whim with 5 kids and 3 adults. It was awesome! Greta food, great service, great ice cream.“

“Enjoyed a get away for the 4th of July and, omg, found a great Sonic restaurant just inside NC!! Great wonderful food, eat to get in and you get a light to help you back on the road. I couldn't say enough how wonderful the food was!! Highly highly recommend if you're like me and love Sonic!! Enjoy!!“

“I know that this 24 hr spot is the best one on the map for the area. What we see on door dash is that it is closed at midnight. The first pic is what we see if we look to order after midnight on door dash, how many people would be buying late night delivered hot food if it was corrected to be like other 24 hr McDonalds that are set right? (See second pic) I hope a few hundred likes will convince someone to look into it and correct the hours on the restaurant side so door dash can deliver the goodness after midnight! Thank you!“

“On September 1, 2022 I ate at Captain D’s in Franklin, NC. I went through the drive-through and received stellar customer service and the fish was so delicious. Cashier went above and beyond and put all the condiment in the bag. So amazing! Thanks for all you do, keep up the great job. Todd“

“Great food for a food truck, great food in general. Prices were good, fresh food, great portions. Service was great.. She translated the menu for me since I dont speak Spanish. Very good choice for a date night. Would 5 star if they had a big enough dining area for more than a couple people.“

“Absolutely love this place. We stop here whenever we are coming Home from Tennessee!! server is wonderful and the Pizza Hut classic taste we can't get back home anymore!“

“It took a little time for them to prepare my order, which consisted of (#3) Dbl Qtr Pounder, plain, with pickles only/Md fries/Mocha Mc. Frappe & (#4) Original Mc. Crispy/fries/Caramel Mc Frappe. Originally I wanted my favorite of all seasonal flavors: the Shamrock Shake, however the ice cream machine was down(which took away the last star from my experience) which was confusing as I thought it was also necessary for the frappes ...
Our sandwiches were assembled perfectly, and our order arrived hot and fresh, it tasted as delicious as it looked!
As far as fast food goes, other Mc.Donald's establishments should take a few notes!

“I don't eat fast food often, but we decided to stop for something quick, while in Franklin, NC. The og chicken sandwich was really good and the lettuce was nice and crisp, not wilted, etc and a decent amount. The cashier was wonderful! She was patient and helpful. The employees were so friendly! I left, almost not caring of the good was bad. Receiving good friendly customer service isn't always easy to find. Well done to that location. Keep up the good work.“

“If you’re looking for a pizza experience that blows past the ordinary, Papa John’s in Franklin—under the leadership of Skyler, the GM—has got you covered. From the moment you walk in, there’s a vibe that sets this location apart. The staff operates like a well-tuned engine, clearly driven by Skyler’s dynamic management style. You can tell right away that this isn’t just another pizza shop; it’s a crew that takes pride in what they serve.

The pizzas? Absolute perfection. Fresh dough that springs to life in the oven, toppings so meticulously placed they look like art, and that signature garlic sauce waiting to ruin your diet plans in the best way possible. The consistency here is unreal. Whether you order at 2 PM on a slow Tuesday or 8 PM on a chaotic game night, every slice feels like it was crafted with care.

What really makes this Papa John’s stand out is the level of service. Skyler runs a tight ship, and you feel it. Deliveries are fast, orders are accurate, and even the smallest interactions—whether it’s a quick “thank you” or a “have a great day”—feel genuine. Skyler has managed to turn what could be a standard fast food joint into a neighborhood staple where everyone feels welcome.

And don’t even get me started on the customer-first mentality. Got a complicated order? No problem. The staff handles it without a blink. Something goes wrong? Skyler makes it right before you even have time to feel frustrated. It’s clear that this isn’t just about pizza for him—it’s about community, relationships, and ensuring every customer leaves happier than when they arrived.

The energy at this Papa John’s mirrors that of a winning sports team: driven, fun, and focused on delivering results every single time. If you haven’t tried this location yet, you’re seriously missing out. Skyler and his crew are turning dough and cheese into an experience you’ll want to keep coming back for.“

“Great food“

“We got the chicken finger meals today It was delicious..the chicken tenders were crispy but very tender on the inside ...they were big and very flavorful...the slaw was great as was the fries and Texas toast“

“Consistently great food. Great service. Drive thru is always quickly moving. I've been there many times over the years. I have yet to go inside. Lol. So, I can't speak of that. The drive thru is tight in bigger vehicles. So beware of that if you are in a larger SUV or BIG truck.“

“This Subway is one of the only places my family and I will eat out at in Franklin. It’s always clean with great service and great food. The staff is so friendly and provides excellent service. A place my whole family loves! I love that the staff washes their hands and puts on gloves in front of me every time.“
