I ordered the iced coffee, and my wife opted for the kombucha. This place is simply awesome. We had the pleasure of visiting two of their locations, one in Franklin and the other in Nashville. Both spots exude a fantastic vibe and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. The iced coffee I had was top-notch - smooth, flavorful, and just the right amount of refreshing. My wife's kombucha was equally impressive, with a refreshing and delightful taste that stood out. Although we haven't had the chance to try the food yet, the menu looks incredibly enticing with a variety of options that promise to satisfy. The ambiance at both locations is cozy and perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. Frothy Monkey is definitely a local gem, and it's clear why it's a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Whether you're looking for a great cup of coffee, a refreshing drink, or a comfortable place to hang out, Frothy Monkey is worthy of a visit. We'll certainly be back to explore more of what they have to offer. read more

I had the Biscuits and Chorizo Gravy with two eggs and red peppers which was excellent. The Chai tea latte paired well with this dish. Service was quick and friendly. read more

I really love the front patio here it's great for people watching and coffee sipping. My last visit here I had the avo toast and a cold brew coffee. Both are very good, but my toast could have used an egg, which they do offer, but declined it for some reason. The outdoor patio is great, but if that's not your vibe, they have indoor seating as well. Just a heads up, be ready to wait because this place is always packed. There's minimal parking in the back of the building and very little street parking. Planning on getting some work done here? The wifi is a little slow and the restaurant is loud. Better bring those earbuds! read more

Frothy Monkey - Avo toast. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Lived in Franklin for close 30 years. Started coming to Frothy years ago when it in habited a great location on 5th avenue. Lots has changed in the years including how they choose to handle service. Lets break it down: Atmosphere 4 Stars: The reason I rate it highly is that I prefer to sit outside on the porch. It looks over 5th and exemplifies a small town vibe. The inside is not bad but when crowded it can be loud. If you can, site outside. If they did not have such as great location and setup, I would be hard pressed to rate this place with 3 stars. Service 2 Stars: This is where Frothy has failed to have a sufficient amount of froth. Several issues make this a tough sell. First, you now need to see the hostess when sitting outside. Additionally, they moved their service from counter to wait staff. Normally this would be a good step up given the counter area is cramped and small. What makes it challenging is that they don't staff for this type of restaurant. The staff is very friendly but just not enough of them. Took over 20 minutes just to get waited on and even after that, my food did not come for over 40 minutes. If you have time to burn, maybe you can tolerate this but if you are here for lunch and visiting the town, you would be better served by going to 55 South, Franklin Mercantile (one of my favs), Puckett's, Burger Dandy or Meridees. Food 3.5 Stars: I had the Prosciutto warm sandwich. It comes with chips and salsa as its side. Most other sides have an upcharge to them. I struggle with this because it was so close to a 4. First the chips. Don't think they were fresh but I expected that. My problem was that most of them were crushed, making impossible to dip in the salsa. The salsa was actually really good. Seemed fresh and not too hot. Now for the sandwich. I was pleasantly surprised. The sourdough was toasted perfectly and the cheese and prosciutto heated appropriately. Their special mayo gave it the right punch. As i said, I struggled with this, but to be a 4 in my book, all elements of the plate need to be hitting. I could not get over the crushed up chips. Value 3 Stars: Lets first admit that Franklin is more a tourist town these days versus a local place. Unfortunate, but true. So if you are visiting and its your vacation, you may be fine with prices. After all, your on vacation and all of us spend more for things when we are on vacation. Expect to pay nearly $20 for lunch (food, drink, taxes and tip). If the "site down / wait" service was more efficient, I would not be as negative but when you go from counter service to table service, you need to live up to the expectation. $20 for lunch merits good table service So all in, this is not a bad spot but also not the best place to come if you are a visitor. There are other places to go in town, as I have mentioned in this review, so look around. If you are looking for a great lunch I would recommend Burger Dandy or Franklin Mercantile (get the tomato basil). read more

Nashville chain. Not the biggest fan of their food. Iced lattes are better than hot. Matcha is pretty good. Like their outdoor seating. read more

Definitely would recommend this place! My husband and I have become a bit snobby when it comes to coffee (in the nicest way possible) and we adored our drinks!

Frothy Monkey - Cortado Pour Over and Signature latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Three of us ate there today. Two of us had the Betsy...chicken salad on bread with a smattering of lettuce. Chips and salsa were a side dish. The chicken salad was "Meh" and the bread was stale. The chips were hard and seemed stale. The only good thing was the lemonade. Service was almost non-existent. We had to hunt down our server to pay. Not impressed. read more

Service was excellent. Breakfast on the patio was delightful. Only the grits, presented lacking flavor, disappointed.

Got the Havana latte and amazing!! Service was great and the building is pretty! It's an old looking house, signage is hidden but you can find it with the rainbow flag out front. read more

Nice stop on a cold wintery February afternoon- cozy surroundings Coffee and turtle latte were good Hot Chocolate was warm-ish... we should have requested they be reaccomplished but we were chilly and anything warmer than air temperature was OK right then... Server was attentive and pleasant Would return if in the area again read more

I was visiting from out of town. I came here in the morning to work on my laptop. I ordered a cortado for the first time (in my life) and it was delicious. I sat on the front porch and drank it while working. The hostess and the person who took my drink order were super nice and seemed into working there. I came back again later with my husband and we ordered a light dinner. The food was great! I ordered a cortado again and this time it came with a seltzer water. I liked it there and will return. I recommend. read more

I heard this place was a chain, so my expectations weren't super high... but chain or not, the coffee is smooth and rich. I got the turtle latte, which was yummy. Hubby got the mocha monkey, and that is just plain heavenly. I hope this chain moves it's way further south! read more

Frothy Monkey - To-go turtle latte and mocha monkey. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Not entirely worth it. Very loud unclean place, definitely a spot for people that like to drink and pay for overpriced microwave food. The service was extremely slow, it was like our server was too shy to check on us or ask if we were ready for the check. read more

Visited Frothy Monkey for a quick brunch, service was excellent as was our food. I had a coffee and the biscuits and chorizo gravy. Both were great. We sat outside, where heat lamps kept the temperature comfortable despite it being late November. Overall a great visit with nice folks! read more

Really cute brunch spot in town. Went here with my mom and enjoyed a truly delicious latte and the Gail salad. Everything was delicious and felt healthy. I liked the ambiance as well. Superb service! read more

Best coffee in Franklin in my opinion. Lattes are my drink of choice, and they have the best tasting beans around. Roasted to perfection, flavorful, but never too robust or burned. I buy all my beans here for home coffee. Really good food options as well. The garden burger is my go to if I'm eating as well. read more

Absolutely loved this place! Great chill southern vibe. We had biscuit board and charcuterie board, salads were great, Betsy sammy was delicious, biscuits with gravy awesome as well. Charming server Ally brought us brownies as a treat even though we didn't order dessert and they were THE BEST. Can't recommend this place highly enough! read more

SERVICE: Not extremely friendly like what you'd expect in the South? I'm from Cali and I felt like I was back there; in the not so cool but over priced area. FOOD: French toast: ok, California breakfast: it was toast and eggs with a wedge of avocado ? Nothing we'd order again. Plain Bagel and cream cheese : , a Capri sandwich with Bacon : it was good and the hibiscus cake was delicious, but very rich. DRINKS: hot cocoa: , vanilla latte: alright , and a hummingbird on ice: ok The order was $ 80.00 - date 9/2022 read more

The best place to come and work with a coffee or bring your family for breakfast. My little one loves the sausage here and I love the coffee. The service is top notch as well. The ambience and atmosphere is very chill and calming. Love this spot! read more

Do not eat there. We were take upstairs, ordered food. Waited 45 minutes then he brought the check. We said we never got the food and he said oh yeah oops and brought us cold food. And it was $100 for 2 ppl. read more

I really loved having an early breakfast at the Frothy Monkey. My biscuits and gravy with chorizo were good and the Andouille was great. I think my only observation was that the amount each plate has was noticeably different. I'm not saying too off the plates but my partner was left hungry after his portion. read more

All Frothy Monkey coffee shops are sorely overrated to me. Despite this, I still love it. It's a "moth to the flame" situation. I am drawn to this local chain because it is a great place to study, a great place to get a meal, and I enjoy the vibe it offers. All of them seem to run similar vibes, but what makes the Franklin location different is the demographic who frequents it. It's a bit stiffer here than it is comparably to the ones in Nashville. However, with that being said, the staff seem to be chill and keep the Frothy Monkey brand down to earth. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my experience here and felt the service was spot on along with the food and drink. I liked the set up of their dining room and how the maximized the space to the best of their ability. I feel that I would return for sure and it is an easy place to come in and grab what you need and go, too. It's a little limiting on restrooms, but I would not necessarily think that would be a flaw in the design. They're utilizing the space to the best to their ability, especially while maintaining the integrity of the historic building that it is located in. 4 stars solid from me. read more

The proof is in the picture y'all!! This avocado toast was so delicious that I finished it all and I wasn't even initially craving avocado toast it was just that good! I love this restaurants atmosphere, it is a great place to study at or just grab some food and drinks with friends. The service is always faster than expected and the workers are usually pretty nice, I also just tried the singer tea because I woke up with a sore throat and when I tell you it fixed my issue it fixed everything y'all, I'm definitely putting this place on the top of my list!!

First visit was a quick stop in go-to order of coffee and baked goods. The baristas seem to excel at their craft, as the lattes and mochas looked and tasted excellent. The cold brew was flavorless and acidic; will not order again. The three different bakery items were far below what one should expect from an establishment such as this... Dry. The Scone - dry. The Chocolate croissant - dry. The Cream Cheese Danish - dry. In fact, the croissant and danish had that "day old" texture to them. Very unfortunate, and if I'd still been in the vicinity, I'd have taken them back. I will give Frothy Monkey another shot, but I don't know that I'll be able to abide the same poor quality when I'm certainly being charged for it. read more

Came here on a Saturday around 10am. We only waited about 18 minutes for a table for 2. Not bad for a Saturday morning in Franklin. We ordered coffee to go and walked around a little while we waited. I got the Turtle Latte. I thought it would be on the sweeter side but it wasn't. I didn't care for it very much but no big deal. We were seated upstairs in a quiet room which we liked. Someone came over and poured some water for us and then a little while later someone came to take our order. I ordered the Farmhouse breakfast and substituted fruit salad for the grits. They said they don't have potatoes anymore. When we got our food it looked good. My Farmhouse breakfast was okay. The eggs and toast were cold but tasted okay. The jam they serve with the toast was tasty. The best thing on my plate was the bacon. It was super yummy. My fruit salad had pineapple, grapes and cantaloupe. The grapes were bruised and overly soft. The cantaloupe was past its expiration. The pineapple was good. My boyfriend's sandwich was good he said. The potato soup he had with it wasn't good. He called it dirt soup so I didn't want to try it. Overall I'd say there are a lot of better options in Franklin. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either, hence the 3 stars. read more

Great coffee shop with excellent food options! It's rare that you find a restaurant with great coffee or an amazing coffee shop with delicious food. Frothy Monkey has both! There's a very nice patio to enjoy the warmer weather, that's great for conversation and people watching. I always use this place as a meet-up spot for friends and family who are out-of-towners. There's street parking available and also parking in the back that's very affordable if you can't find a spot out front. The service is great too. The staff are friendly and know their menu items well. It's a must try, while in Franklin! read more

Emmm I can't give them 5 stars because we are not happy about the food maybe the chef had bad day the food wasn't good.

I was super hyped when I got there because it's such a cute spot and the vibes are amazing! I love how roomy it is (it's a converted house) and how it's a cafe/coffee shop, but sit down. The menu is also super well curated and inventive. However, the service wasn't good. We just wanted to sit down for a quick bite and coffee, and it took them around 30 minutes to deliver our one drink and two small plates. Very disappointing. The food was great though, but the iced coffee was unimpressive to me (despite how exciting it sounded on the menu). They also had to come back to our table twice in the process of making our food to let us know two of our orders were unavailable. Strange because it wasn't close to close. Not sure I'll be back. read more

Just moved here and thought it would be nice to get a latte to go and enjoy a walk downtown. 30 minutes later I was still waiting for the latte. the waiting area is extremely cramped and the baristas (2) were backed up. I held my tongue when one person who ordered after me got their drink. Then a customer who was 3 people behind me complained and wanted a refund. The barista said, "you are just 3 tickets back, it won't be that long. So instead of making the drinks for the 3 people, which I was the next ticket up, they made the customer's 3 drinks right away. so instead of doing the right thing and making the next 3 tickets, they made those wait so they could make him happy. When I pointed out that I had waited patiently for a 1/2 hour for 1 drink and got bumped, their answer was "we are running behind". When she finally did give me my drink, as I was walking out, the barista said in a very sarcastic tone,"Have a good one!". I don't like to complain, but this is unacceptable. Upon ordering a drink, they need to tell the customer that it is going to be a 40 minute wait. I won't be going back. Not worth my time, especially when I get heckled by the barista. read more

I don't know what happened to the Frothy Monkey, but my latest experience was not good. I ordered the salmon sandwich on gluten free bread. I wish I had taken a picture of the tiny piece of salmon. It couldn't have been 3 ounces. They lost a customer. read more

This is a great spot for breakfast or lunch. It is right off downtown Franklin. Lots of great food and coffee beverages for everyone!
