Consistently good bbq. Great service, nice place. I had lunch half rack and i was stuffed. Well, not quite as they have peach cobbler, but, you know. Lots of napkins and two wet wipes later, i was stuffed. Well done.

The atmosphere here is great and the staff is very friendly. The restrooms and dining area were clean. All good there. Unfortunately the overall experience was poor though.
We were sat quickly and our server said hello and dished out waters for us but it took her over 25 minutes to come back for our food order. I have small kids so time is important. The server should not be faulted. She was running food and obviously very busy, so I was asking myself where was her support?...

They have the best ribs I have ever tasted. My Wife and I live in central Florida but vacation often in the Franklin area and every time we go there we can't wait to go to Fat Buddies. We go there at least three or four times during our weeks vacation and yes I even have to sport a Fat Buddies hat when I run around central Florida. If you are in the Franklin NC area and don't go and try some ribs you missed the chance of a lifetime. Keep up the good work and I hope to...
