I love a good meat and three and it's a shame that they are becoming g few and far between. This one is pretty good. All the classics with none of the fuss. Gets pretty busy and they are the Hattie b's people so it's great to have that as an option too! read more

Wife and I doordashed Bishops tonight, and it felt like we had a home cooked meal. We got some tenders, broccoli chicken rice casserole, and a few sides, and they all hit. Would love to go in and try them fresh, but even a 30 minute delivery didn't take away on how good the food was. Can't wait to dine in one day! Amazing place! read more

It's a classic meat and three. You go through a line cafeteria style. There is generally three meat choices and multiple vegetable sides. You can also get Hattie B's hot chicken. It was lunch so we opted to go a bit light sharing hot chicken tenders, okra, and squash casserole. Also a plate of chicken and dumplings. It was all very good. The hot chicken was the favorite. read more

Hot and fresh meat and vegetables that are priced right. My wife had lemon talapi ,green beans and macaroni and cheese while I had fried chicken macaroni and cheese and fried okra read more

The cashier was rude. The service was slow. The food tasted good, but I'll never come back.

We were in the area and decided to stop in and try this spot. The line was pretty long when we got here, but it went by pretty quick. It's a meat and 3 so I just stood in line, and placed my order. I tried the Hattie B's medium spice for my fried chicken. I'm usually someone that doesn't have a very good tolerance level for spice, but I did pretty well on medium here. The heat level wasn't too bad for me. I felt that the fried chicken was perfectly fried. It wasn't too dry or anything. It wasn't bad. As for the sides, I liked the Mac n cheese. It was very well seasoned and not dry. I also liked the mashed potatoes n gravy. The carrots were my favorite side. It was very yummy. The carrots were honestly my favorite thing here. The sweet tea wasn't too sweet. For me, I prefer my sweet tea to be sweeter. The cornbread, was a little too dry for me. I felt that it was dry and flaky. In all, I did not have a bad experience. I would rate this restaurant above average. read more

Such amazing food there was a line as soon as we got there so we knew the food was going to be great. The chicken and dumplings was sold out by 6pm so that was a bummer. But we still enjoyed everything. The sides, entrees and cannot pass up the dessert. I recommend the banana bread pudding. Such a classic!!! read more

I really wanted to like this place. Hattie B's is our favorite hot chicken place in the area - even more than Princes. So the fact that they have Hattie B's chicken here is a good start. But unfortunately, the stuff we had other than the chicken was not good. The chop steak they had was awful. So bland, so greasy. Awful. The spinach side was disgusting. The green beans bland like they came from a can. Mac and Cheese was pretty good. The inside was fine and staff were nice - the food other than the chicken and Mac and Cheese is just bland and generic and not well done. We will just go to Hattie B's next time: read more

Great food choices, with featured entrees for each day. Catfish on Friday hit the spot! There is a great variety of sides. Great service--quick, friendly, and attentive. The only minor downside (besides the long line) was the seating. While it was a Friday at 7 p.m., I felt like others could easily hear my conversation. The food is priced reasonably in the $$ range, and many people were picking up to-go plates, which means they are worth the drive. I'm choosing to give them a 5 because it doesn't deserve a 4. After all, they are a bit tight in space in a strip mall. I won't fault them a whole star for that. read more

Today the young lady started waiting on me got my banana pudding then she gave my plate to a older woman walking away not advising she was leaving ...so RUDE then when I made it to check out NO THANK YOU GIVEN the food is still good the #service is #terrible read more

Bishop's Meat and Three - Hamburger steak vegis with drink and desert 18.93 plus tip - Southern Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Bishop's Meat & 3 was a great experience today. I ordered ahead online for pickup for lunch, and was glad I did, as when I went to pickup my food at noon, they had a line out the door! (Which is always good to see) I went with a "meat and 2" plate: fried dark meat chicken, fried okra, and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. Everything was fresh, hot, and delicious. But let me take a minute to talk about that chicken. I've eaten a LOT of fried chicken this week while in the Nashville area at some places that claim to have the best--none compared to Bishop's. Hot, crispy breading, tender chicken, flavorful breading, and just the right amount of grease. GET THE CHICKEN. Can't say much for ambiance, as I did a pickup order only, but restaurant seemed clean. read more

The best meat and three around in my opinion... dining area is small, but seems to work out. The line moves pretty fast and the food is always top notch quality. read more

Obviously I'm not the first person to write a raving review here. Bishop's is home style southern food at its best. All the food tastes like it was made by someone's grandma who is the best cook at the local Baptist church. I usually come here for the hot chicken (if you order the damn hot you better be ready cause it really is gonna be damn hot). The fried chicken and catfish are also great. Now for the sides - you cannot go wrong with the sides. I've had them all, and they are all great. There is nothing fancy here. It is just traditional southern cooking done right. The restaurant is nice and clean but definitely has the local charm. The staff are friendly and the service is fast. If you're looking to eat local, this is some of the best food in Franklin. read more

Great food and quick and great service. Very clean place. Great southern buffet will come back again.

Good ol' Southern Meat and Three. The fried chicken is juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside- super tasty! All our sides were delish- especially the squash casserole. And the staff were very helpful and nice in helping with my elderly mom. read more

BEST SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE IVE HAD IN MY LIFE!!! This place was amazing!! Great customer service + amazing food = happy customers! It's cafeteria buffet style where you choose which one you want and they'll serve you in a 2 side or 3 side option. I got their Amazing fried chicken, best sweet potato casserole, and Mac n cheese. All three were soooo goood I'm mouth is watering just writing this. Of course I tried all the desserts they had to offer.. my fav was the banana pie with the marshmallow merengue on top.. sooo good! read more

Fabulous quick casual dinner. Great Hattie's B's hot chicken. "Hot" was the perfect amount of heat. All the sides we tried were just wonderful - green beans, fried okra, turnip greens, mashed potatoes and gravy, mac and cheese. Absolutely loved every bit of it. About the only thing wrong with Bishop's Meat and Three is that it's not right next door to my home! read more

Cafe Style, meat & 3, with roll or jalapeño cornbread? Yes please! Fast, friendly, clean, homecooked goodness... reasonably priced as well. read more

Have eaten here several times. Food is hot, fresh and fast! Not fast food however. Family restaurant with friendly service. Would love to see more variety of veggies and not always deep fried fish. read more

Always fresh hot and delicious! Doesn't matter what you choose it's all GREAT! I don't live in the area so I plan shopping trips to the area around mealtimes! read more

Excellent service with friendly staff. Setting is typical of southern meat and 3 and comfortable. The food however is as good as any in the area. In fact it is the only meat and 3 in the area but Bishop's is so good it would be difficult to compete with them. read more

I had fried chicken, mac and cheese and carrot soufflé. The carrots were the best thing on the menu hands down. It is nice for a fast meal that seems like a real meal that is more than fast food. I will come back and try other options soon. read more

Absolutely delicious fried chicken and sides. I've eaten fried chicken all over and this is some of the best. Flavorful and juicy.

Let me start by saying I will go back. But I will try something other than their hot chicken. Went for hot chicken week and had the special - a 'hot' leg qtr and 2 sides. I had Mac n cheese and green beans. All was ok. Quantity was good. Normal prices are good. Chicken was cooked nicely just not especially hot. It says Hattie B heat levels but they are a step down - at least that one was. Service was good, food came out quickly despite a very long line and packed house. I would pass on the corn bread next time - I love corn bread but theirs was just average. So if you're in the area - check it out. But for serious hot chicken - I am still going with that better known one that starts with H. read more

Best meat and three!! They are quick kind and the food delicious!!! My only bit of recommendation is more seasoning on the green beans!! read more

Food is 5 star quality (literally Hattie B's chicken). Carrot Soufflee is the BEST, but their Mac n cheese is equally fantastic. Service is also fantastic. Great atomosphere. This place is simply our favorite! read more

This was the best place that I visited while I was in Nashville recently. It's got friendly service, affordable prices, and delicious food. My family and I tried a variety of meat and three plates, and I tried Hattie B's famous hot chicken on my plate! (There are multiple heat levels, and I was glad I started low.) The carrot soufflé was another interesting dish I hadn't seen anywhere else, and it was worth trying. The family and I ordered two of the desserts, banana pudding and pecan pie. Those were good but not as great as the banana pudding dessert we had at a BBQ place on the other side of town. Still, for the non-dessert portion of the meal, Bishop's is where I would visit again and again. read more

Excellent customer service, great food! They set everything up for us and the party was set.

This place is hit or miss. Sometimes it's great and sometimes the rolls are burnt and the meal doesn't come with the condiments ordered. They almost never answer their phone so you need to order Togo on the website. Tried calling to mention the status of the rolls so they could talk to the kitchen about ensuring quality. I'll be back but I'll double check my order next time. Update: Ordered Togo again and this time it came without the ranch I ordered from the online order and the hot tenders look like they were mild or medium tenders that were retossed. Which led to them not tasting fresh and a bit chewy. Not the normal quality at all. read more

The service was lovely but the food was lacking flavor and texture. The Mac and cheese tasted like it came from a kids cuisine and for the cole slaw someone needs to put down the black pepper shaker because lord have mercy. The green beans came straight from a can to the plate. If you want a real southern place this ain't it baby but the service was lovely thanks! :) read more

Overall very average. Food was mostly under seasoned and cheaply made. Seems like a lot of canned food and not Southern. Its just ok but missed the mark on a good restaurant. read more

I absolutely loved this spot. The set up is so cute and simple . Customer service was 100% definitely my favorite new spot in Franklin. read more

Bishop's Meat and Three - Fried Chicken,Mac & Cheese and sweet carrots Casserole - Southern Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

I almost didn't want to post a review, as some of us don't want to share the secret. But pppsssstttt....this is Hattie B's hot chicken. It predated Hattie's, from what I understand, and was so good they started the now famous Hattie chain based on this chicken. The sides, particuarly the Mac n Cheese are incredible. My only somewhat negative remark is that their cornbread is hit and miss, sometimes pretty good, but often dry and tasteless. But with chicken like this, inconsistent cornbread is not enough to knock off a star. This is a constant go to for us Franklin, and a place we HAVE to take any guests who come into town. read more

The side dishes were largely unseasoned, leaving them lacking in flavor. A little more attention to seasoning could greatly enhance the dining experience.The quality of the meats appeared to be poor, and the preparation seemed rushed or inexpensive, which affected the overall taste and texture. The hamburger steak is greasy. read more

This is a fan favorite with my in laws when we are in Franklin. The meat and three choices are always tasty and fresh even when it's to go. The hot chicken is my favorite! read more

We were in Franklin from Huntsville for the day and spotted this restaurant while shopping. Reviews were good, so we gave it a try. I can't tell you what a good experience we had. Food was excellent, served cafeteria style, and the eating area was plain but clean and orderly. I had stuffed bell pepper, squash casserole and Lima beans which were all tasty and hot. My husband, who has eaten spicy Indian food in INDIA, said the medium hot fried chicken burned him but good. He also enjoyed his vegetables. It's hard to find a meat and three restaurant anymore. I think the owners were working that day, and they were super polite and sincerely appreciative of our patronage. We'll be back when we visit Franklin again. read more

Cafeteria style setup, grab a tray and pick your food. I grabbed the medium fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, and cornbread. Hubby had regular fried chicken with mash and Mac and cheese. The biggest difference I saw between our chicken (besides mine being spicy of course) is that his skin/batter was crispy and mine wasnt which was a let down. As far as the chicken, honestly Publix executes it better. And although this is where Hattie B's chicken originated, I would wait in line for their chicken over coming here any day. All the sides were equivalent to a school lunch. Not bad by any means but not really worth going back to. read more
