5 Best Pubs near Franklin

“My family loves this little gem right in downtown Franklin. My husband is British and this is his go to place when he wants a taste of home - especially fish and chips (he says the tartar sauce seals the deal). We’ve sampled other staples like cottage pie and chicken tenders and everything has been lovely. The dining room is small and cozy so sometimes it’s a bit crowded (especially on trivia night) but we’ve rarely had a problem squeezing in. Waitstaff is friendly and the decor really sells the Irish pub atmosphere. I don’t usually order drinks beyond an occasional hard cider, but there are lots of offerings which I am sure are equally as good as the food.“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere!“

“After a day of soccer, we found Scout's down the street from the fields. It's located in a cute town square area with a pond, swings, and grassy area for kids to play. We had a large group of 9 and they seated us right away. We chose to sit on the patio to enjoy the warm afternoon sun and breeze. It's a dog-friendly spot, and our kids loved petting the other guests' dogs (asking for permission of course). The inside is cute as well, but it would have been a little crowded with our larger party. But I could imagine hanging out with friends at the bar or on a date night with my wife. Scout's has a large and diverse menu, so everyone was able to order something to their taste. My son had a smash burger and appetizer of fries, cheese curds, poutine and bacon, my daughter had chicken tenders and Mac N Cheese, I had pizza, and my wife ordered taquitos. They also have a full bar and several craft beers to choose from. I had the Good People IPA, which is one of my faves. The service was excellent. Our server, Lauren, was friendly and attentive. Grabbed empty plates quickly, refilled waters & sodas without asking, and was ready to bring us the next round at just the right time.“
