Hate to bash a restaurant, I know they've been around a while. But this was probably one of the worst places I have eaten in Franklin or the Nashville area! I don't know if they are under new management or what, but it looked like they were struggling quite a bit. I had never eaten here before, but apparently, the main dining area is downstairs (you enter from outside), and it was closed. There was outdoor seating, and then the upstairs was just a bar area. The outdoor seating was actually the best part simply because of the fall weather and color changing leaves! Just outside the bar was a small porch area, and people were smoking there. It was outside granted but not pleasant for the rest of us non-smokers. The menu selection was standard bar food - burgers, sandwiches, wraps, salads, chicken tenders, etc. My husband ordered a burger, and I ordered the chicken fingers. Both were pretty horrible. My husband said the burger didn't taste like much, and my tenders looked like they were going to be amazing but ended up having a very strange taste. I overheard another table discussing several things with their server. Dislike over certain food, beers out on tap, and possibly new management as to the changes?? So I don't think I was the only one having a bad experience. I definitely expect and expected more out of a Franklin restaurant. In fact, I expect a lot out of any restaurant I patronize these days, given the price of a meal. Let's do better folks.

Great patio. Food is always great. Off beat for pricey Franklin snobbery. Full of local color. Maybe, I shouldn't let the secret out.

Been here quite a few times, but it’s been a long minute since last visit. We had some friends in town and wanted to take them someplace that’s unique to Franklin and we thought the Bunganut would be fun, especially since we hadn’t been there for so long.

Boy were we wrong. First, apparently they are keeping a troll in the basement whose main job is to bark at people who are coming in. Though the sign says ‘Main entrance’ with an arrow indicating the basement and there’s a rope available to block off if it’s not being used and there’s a lock in the door, none of these things were in effect when we entered through the door we’ve used every time in the past. Fortunately they had their troll down there to irritably inform idiots like us that we had to go upstairs for service.

Up we went. Got a table. Waitress was *fine*. Food was really good! Kitchen staff for the win. However we will not ever be returning or recommending. When we got our checks, we discovered that they are charging for water. Water in a glass. Mind you, everyone at the table ordered a cocktail of some kind, we ordered a couple appetizers, and we all ordered entrees. $2 for a glass of water.

Y’all. Nope

I came here a week ago and had the Chicken Caesar Salad. I literally came back everyday because it was the best Chicken Caesar Salad I've ever!

Very nice atmosphere and live music. Food and service was good. Cleanliness of the outside tables and even inside floors could use attention.

Went here by recommendation and when I walked in the place is empty but 2 people . The bartender looked at me and said , Yes? . I told her is this where you can eat and she said , Yes?. No welcoming feeling at all just a stare and no came out to greet or anything. I walked out and told my friend who recommended, No thank you !! Not a good look for business and I’m a local.

Best garlic Parmesan wings I’ve had! The outdoor patio is charming on a balmy early summer day. Be prepared for a laid back casual vibe as the Pig is currently understaffed. The food was exceptional though and I love supporting local.

If I could rate it zero stars I really would. Racist, and unprofessional. Wouldn’t recommend, unless you like a really bad salad, and horrible customer service.

Best place for a low-key chill non smoking beer in Franklin. A true gem. Service is always great and drinks are cold. Burgers are fantastic as well.
