    What's the point of ordering ahead for a pick up at a specific time when it's not ready on time? Then to have people who walked in after get helped before you. This needs to be fixed. Generally wouldn't leave one stars, but the fact this isn't the first time this has happened is kind of a joke. Also while two people are working and two are just standing around doesn't give a good impression on the business. To add insult to injury the order wasn't made correctly, and the Avocado I paid extra for was already brown. Very disappointed. Most likely will never be coming back to this location.

    Picture of my food

    I don't usually leave reviews, but my first experience was exceptional. From the moment I walked in and was acknowledged, I felt like I was going to have an amazing meal. The manager Domieic was actively making sure every guest felt acknowledged while helping, checking on customers with genuine interest making a thoughtful recommendation that I had asked for, he did it all without making me feel like a burden. All the staff were nice to the customers. The food came out quickly, perfectly prepared, and very good I had the Southwest Chicken grain bowl and my friend got a spicy Thai chicken and chilli both great. CoreLife eatery is good for freshness and with anyone for anyone looking for gluten free meals. If you're in the Franklin area stop by.

    Southwest Grilled Chicken Bowl

    CoreLife Eatery is an American style quick service spot that specializes in and focuses on the cleaner way to eat through offering a variety of healthier options such as grain/rice/broth bowls, salads, wraps while also having lighter varieties of a few favorites such as tacos and mac n cheese! This is one of two locations here in Tennessee, with the other being in Murfreesboro. All their other locations are spread out from South Carolina to Ohio to Indiana and Illinois. My office is not far from here, so CoreLife stays high on the list for delivery or pick ups for working lunches. I usually go with the Southwest Grilled Chicken and Purple Rice Bowl. For all intents and purposes, it is a southwestern chicken salad with a scoop of purple rice on it, but that is not a bad thing at all and is quite tasty! Service is always stellar, whether we get delivery or pickup. Overall, CoreLife is a solid spot and great addition to the casual dining options in Cool Springs!

    Great healthy fast food. Similar to Upbeet and Sweetgreen. Grain bowls and salads. Serve alcoholic drinks.

    The food here is amazing! It's delicious, healthy, gluten free and very well priced! I wish they had one In California! Highly recommend!! The outside eating area was super cute too.

    Gluten free options made us stop. Everything is fresh. Lots of healthy options. Blown away? No. But feel good walking out. And love the smoothie

    This is my review for the bakery:…read more I really wanted to support this small bakery, but my experience left me feeling misled and taken advantage of. When I first visited, the owner, Steve Bledsoe, asked where we were from. After I said California, he told an employee to give us the "California discount." When the total came out to $40 per pie, I was shocked and asked why the price was so high. I was given a long explanation about premium ingredients and homemade quality. Feeling awkward and wanting to support a family-owned business, I went ahead and bought four pies. The next day, when I came back to pick them up, I noticed on the register that another customer had been charged $25 per pie. That was a big red flag. To double-check, I later called the shop as a new customer and was told pies are $25. When I asked to speak with the owner, his answers were inconsistent and unconvincing. I'm extremely disappointed. especially in a local business that relies on community trust. I left feeling like I was charged more simply because the owner thought he could get away with it. I will not be returning, and I hope the business reconsiders how it handles pricing and customer interactions. On top of the dishonesty. The pies were not great. I could have supported Costco and bought larger pies that tasted just as good, if not, better.

    Great vibe, super service, and awesome baked goods and coffee. What more could you want.read more

I was already full from eating earlier, but once I laid my eyes on the many things offered, my eyes wanted everything even though my stomach said no. I got a cinnamon roll, and let's just say from the first bite to the last, it was truly the best I've ever had. Everything is absolutely worth it. I was honestly guilt-eating while enjoying it and just thinking, I love my life lol. The customer service was splendid, and the cleanliness stood out as well. Hearing Karina talk about her products and her story was amazing -- it showed that she truly knows her craft and has genuine passion for what she does, which made the experience even better. Karina is truly a magician and a master at her craft. They obviously serve more than cinnamon rolls too. She has a wide variety of items to offer, uses no seed oils (which is perfect since I'm allergic), and apparently even has gluten-free options. She also makes pretty much everything fresh and in-house. There's honestly so much I could write about this place. I think it says a lot that I'm not only planning to become a regular, but I even made my first Yelp account ever just to leave a review. Looking forward to seeing the continued success and growth of this place.

They have a couple cafe tables inside and out if you prefer to eat there.

Honestly, it felt more like a fusion-style menu rather than distinct Australian specialties, but the food and service definitely stood out. The place is well maintained, and the highlight of our visit was the service. Our server was amazing -- she took great care of us, explained the menu clearly, and helped us pick dishes, which made the experience even better. For starters, we tried the Burrata with Kasundi and Roti, which was good, though it would've been even better with a bit more roti. The Corn and Jalapeño Fritters were absolutely delicious. For mains, we ordered the Pesto Cavatelli, Malaysian Cauliflower Curry, and the Two Hander Burger. The Malaysian curry was the standout -- full of flavor and really well done. The burger was also perfect, juicy and satisfying. We ended with the banana walnut bread with espresso mascarpone, which was a delicious way to wrap up the meal. Overall, great food, excellent service, and a pleasant ambiance. Definitely worth a visit!

Packed with flavor and highly recommend this dish. - Grilled chicken Alfredo fettuccine: Parmesan garlic cream sauce with chicken (choice of chicken- grilled or blackened pepper chicken).

Portions are generous, prices are super reasonable, and the staff is always friendly. Truly the best bang-for-your-buck spot in the area when you need to satisfy those pasta cravings. They're locally family-owned, so we love supporting them, been around since 2014 and quite a story/legacy. FYI - on our most recently visit - we called in, stated 20 mins but it took 30 before the food was ready to go, so this may help timing your pick ups.

This was the email I sent: "Two friends and I had a 7:15 PM reservation at Culaccino on January 10. Our server was Lee. Things started out fine, but we found ourselves quickly being subjected to Lee's somewhat aggressive approach to service. He honestly was the least personable server I've ever experienced, and had a very condescending manner. A misunderstanding occurred on my friend's order. She was brought a dish with pork in it, which was not what she ordered. Mistakes happen, but Lee was not at ALL nice or accommodating about it, laying the blame on her, and bringing it up multiple times during our meal, with a snarky and resentful undertone. After we paid, he walked up, dropped our checks, and walked away without a word. It was the first time in my life I've ever been tempted to leave zero tip. My conscience for some reason would not allow me to follow through on this, but it was as undeserved as any gratuity I've ever left. We wanted dessert, but we ended up going elsewhere due to how we'd been treated. We also had no clue we would be charged $6 a person for water! Perhaps something that could be mentioned during the ordering process. I've honestly never had a more disappointing dining experience. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant and had hoped to come back for a date night, but our experience left such a bad impression, I can't imagine spending additional money here. I'm not sure if other diners have had this experience with Lee, but we certainly did not feel welcome or valued as customers and felt it was important to make you aware." The food was fine, but most dishes needed salt- so basic. The lack of response from management, however, really says everything one needs to know about Culaccino. I'd truly recommend spending your dining dollars elsewhere.
