My husband and I had an amazing time at the restaurant. The service and the food suggestions of the Manager Gisely were excellent A+. We really recommend this place and we are definitely coming back to it.

I’ve been here a few times for coffee but today was the first time I’ve actually sat down and tried their breakfast menu. I got the breakfast sandwich and my husband got the Viking sandwich and we were both incredibly disappointed. We agreed that something tasted off or old and neither of us could finish our meals, despite paying nearly $40. When getting water from the fountain I noticed small black specks floating in the cup, so that was also out of the question due to concerns for cleanliness. The staff that we encountered (at the front when ordering and the waitress who brought out our food) seemed to want to be anywhere else and the woman who took our order came across as borderline rude and acted like it was a bother to have to speak to us, which should have been an indication of how our experience would be. This is the first time I’ve ever left a negative review, especially for a small business, but this experience was truly such a disappointment, especially when compared to the warmth and hospitality we’ve experienced at other establishments.

Wow, they microwaved my spinach and feta crescent, so by the time I got halfway through it the pastry was like wood. My dining companion's pimento cheese sandwich was dry and flavorless. Underwhelming and expensive.

Cute and charming decor. Staff were kind and friendly. Food was good. We had breakfast one day (b&g and the 5 point) both were good. Cinnamon roll was yummy. Brownies are great.
I got the soup of the day, quiche and French silk pie. Everything was at 10+++. I wish I had a place like this near me.

Merridee's Breadbasket offers some nice food options for breakfast, lunch or an early dinner right in the middle of Downtown Franklin which makes it a very convenient spot to drop into while also being near a lot of other great options. They are closed on Sundays then are open 7am till 5pm on weekdays and 6pm on Fridays and Saturdays. The evening hours are on the very early side for dinner for many people and especially for me. You order at the counter here and the food tends to get to your table really fast. During the weekends it really seems to get crowded in this area and plenty of places including Merridee's can have long lines of people waiting to get inside. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I've only managed a few visits here over the years and never have been able to visit during the more crowded weekend times but I've certainly witnessed the very long line of folks waiting to get inside here on the weekends. Overall I tend to find this spot fits in best for me during lunch.

Merridee’s Breadbasket is an absolute gem in the heart of Franklin. I came here with my dad and my daughter, and it turned into one of those simple, perfect mornings you don’t forget. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and full of local charm — brick walls, warm lighting, and that Southern small-town comfort you hope for but rarely find.
The food was phenomenal. I had the quiche and it was spot-on — flavorful, fresh, and baked just right. The bacon was thick, perfectly crisp, and full of flavor. Their coffee was exactly what you want to start your day with. My daughter loved every minute here, and the staff was kind and patient with families.
If you’re in Franklin — whether you’re local or visiting — Merridee’s is a must. It’s the kind of place where great food meets genuine heart. We’ll be back for sure.

Adorable place! Our family was visiting from Louisiana for vacation and we loved downtown Franklin and saw Merridee's and wanted to try it. The salads were so fresh and delicious (I got the Chicken Fruit Salad), and the key lime pie was so yummy 😋 I tried some of the poppyseed dressing that came with my sister's salad, and boy, I would buy an entire bottle of that stuff it was so good 😂 My sister also got a Chai latte, and she said it was very good. The lady taking our order at the front counter was so nice and had such a sweet smile! She was working hard and doing a great job! At lunch rush, the place was PACKED, and all four of us had to huddle on a 3-top, but it was worth it 😆 The food was SO good, and we will definitely be back!
