A little louder than the typical speakeasy, but the drinks were very good. Waitress was very friendly. Would definitely go again.

Last night my husband and I went there for our second time and once again it was a wonderful experience. We ordered the Buffalo dip as well as the meatballs. Both excellent. The underground vibe is relaxing and easy. The service both times has been top notch and it seems these days good service can be hard to find. I highly suggest this hidden gem.

We had been wanting to visit Amendment XVIII as we love speakeasies and noticed that it was close to where we live. The best way of locating it is finding the rear entrance for mellow mushroom and there is a parking garage conveniently located to it. In order to enter, you need to flip the Frankenstein switch which is next to their door alerting them and turning on a green light.
We went late Friday night and were surprised that it was fairly empty and that there was no wait time. We were immediately assisted and asked if we had any questions regarding the menu as it was our first time. After a few minutes, we decided on our drinks and asked if it was possible to make a small modification to them by removing the egg whites due to both dietary/preference needs. We 100% understand that this can modify the original drink intended and we understood the consequences by doing so. It wouldn't be the first time we ask to have this removed and have always enjoyed our drinks. The waitress had to make sure but then the bartender came to our table and seemed very territorial about the drinks. Explaining that it would modify the drink and we repeatedly told him that we understood. Despite this, he continued to try convincing us to get something else and we ended up ordering something different than what we wanted to avoid the discussion.
For this reason, we are giving 4 stars instead of 5. We will be coming back as we enjoyed the ambiance but hope to be able to try something that we actually wanted.

The atmosphere and drinks were pretty good. Our egg rolls came cold and for the price of what we paid we thought we would get more. Also ordered the burger and the chicken sandwich in the tasted like they just got them in the frozen food section at the grocery store and microwave them.

Hunter and crew have created a very chill hideaway in downtown Franklin. Super secluded outside and dark and mysterious inside, this place offers an astonishing array of classic cocktails and creative craft libations. The Old Pal Manhattan was a revelation!

It was a fun experience once we found it. The host from mellow mushroom showed us through the reasturant to find it. Once inside, the bar looked good, but it was incredibly dark and hard to see much of anything. Everyone had their phones out trying to read the menus. We stayed for one drink each and left. We may have stayed for longer had we been able to see.
This is such a cool hidden gem. This place really takes you back in time. The cocktails are made with in-house syrups and bitters made fresh daily. The variety of cocktails and drink options were great. Highly recommend for a special occasion or just a Tuesday night out.

I went into this cocktail bar with great expectations. And the first impression didn’t disappoint. Loved the cozy ambience! But that’s about the only thing I liked.
Kudos to the creative team, all the cocktails sounded interesting. If only the actual taste lived up to the interesting names and description! I made the mistake of asking for the sweetest cocktail and ended up with a vile bitter concoction that I couldn’t stomach. We ended up ordering drink after drink hoping the next one would be better but no such luck.
Food was subpar - they have a very limited food menu and had run out of most options before 9pm. Vegetarians, think twice before you head over. You have just three items on the menu and might want to make sure that they are available first.
Service was friendly, but the wait times are tedious. I could have probably overlooked all of this and chalked it down to a “bad day”, but for the napkins. I could smell them two tables away. They smelled like rancid oil and wet rags. It was absolutely disgusting and it was all I could do to keep my food in.
You guys have a lot going for you in terms of location and ambiance. If you could up your ante with great drinks, tasty food and overall cleanliness, I think you’ll cease to be just a novelty and soon become a favorite hangout for many. Not me though… I’ll pass, thanks.

The staff are awesome! These guys and gals are creative and come up with some really cool drinks but also have a great knowledge of the old school. It’s nice to see a crew that takes their profession seriously! Definitely have to check this place out!
