Ruby Sunshine ended up being one of those brunch spots that was worth planning around…read more We visited while spending the day on Franklin's square, and the wait list was about an hour. Normally that's enough to make me reconsider brunch, but after eating here, I'd happily do it again. We were seated outside on an incredibly hot day, and our server--lovingly known as "Slacker"--absolutely earned a shoutout. He somehow managed to keep our table of indecisive food-sharers organized, never let our water glasses get empty, and made the whole experience feel relaxed instead of rushed. The only disappointment? They had already run out of gravy, which meant no biscuits and gravy for us. (My heart still hasn't fully recovered.) Instead, we leaned into sharing everything else. The fried green tomatoes absolutely lived up to the hype, the OG Bennie was fantastic, the avocado toast was fresh and flavorful, and because apparently self-control wasn't invited to brunch, we finished with the white chocolate bread pudding pancakes for "dessert." No regrets. Great food, fantastic service, and a perfect stop while exploring downtown Franklin. Just do yourself one favor... Get there early if biscuits and gravy are calling your name.

There are lots of places here for breakfast and all good and all menus a little different from each other. Ruby Sunshine is located in the roundabout on Main Street in an elegant building with an upscale feel. Picking up on the Nashville Country vibe, you'll find a wall of red Cowboy boots; but all are right-footed! The service is friendly and attentive, your coffee won't go cold, and you won't go thirsty either. We had the Southern breakfast and the friend green tomatoes Betty (benedict) What is interesting about this place is, although a chain, everything is home cooked and tastes like it too--biscuits, grits, gravies, sauces! Enjoy!

I have known about the Big Bad Breakfast franchise for a while but did not have the chance to try…read moreit until a recent visit to see family in TN. My husband and I went on a weekday morning to the Franklin location, and it was busy but not overly crowded. The restaurant's interior was bright and clean, but we decided to enjoy the patio, which was comfortable even in the late summer heat due to industrial-sized fans. My husband ordered a standard breakfast plate with a pancake, and I got an order of biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs on the side. The food did not disappoint. It's hard for most places to get sausage gravy right, and BBB hit the mark. The service staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Prices were also very reasonable, despite almost everything being more expensive these days. Bottom line. we would definitely eat breakfast here again -- maybe even twice on the same trip!

After reading many good reviews about the BBB ( Big Bad Breakfast ) we were expecting a great meal…read more As we entered we noticed it's a large restaurant so we had no problem finding a table despite the parking lot being full. We ordered the Ham & Cheese Omelette's w Hash Cakes. Both items to both of us were what we would consider less than average- average at best so that was disappointing. The presentation of the food was subpar as well. On the bright side our server, Lauren, really did a nice job & the atmosphere was comfortable but I believe we will skip this place next time we find ourselves in Beautiful Franklin Tn.

This place is absolutely worth the wait if ever there is one…read more Always a fun atmosphere, can be a little loud at times. Service can also be a bit slow as they are never anything but packed!! So have some patience when you go, but be ready for the food! Get the chicken tortilla soup as an entree, and get the blueberry biscuits with jam and the whipped honey butter. You can thank me later. Place is awesome!

I thought I was safe ordering the garden omelet, but it was not what I expected. The Swiss cheese was served as a large unmelted piece rather than melted or incorporated into the omelet, there was barely any spinach, and the avocado did not taste fresh. The vegetables also seemed to be placed on top rather than mixed into the omelet. I ended up not eating the omelet because it wasn't enjoyable. I brought my concerns to the staff's attention, but no solution was offered--no remake, replacement, or adjustment to the bill. I understand mistakes happen, but I was especially disappointed by how the situation was handled. Good service can often make up for a mistake, but in this case I left feeling unheard, frustrated, and hungry.

I got their waffles and they were perfection. The BONUTS are to die for make sure you get an order to share. Everything we ordered was just delicious. Loved the vibes of the place and their bathrooms had a cool vibes love the wallpaper & the Dolly Parton themed bathroom as well. They had a lot of great merchandise like T shirts, sweaters, mugs and even more neat stuff to take home. If you have a big group they have open seating outside that can fit your group as well. Really awesome place for sure. They have different locations but this one was Spectacular!

We asked for recommendations and boy did we get it, we got a plain biscuit with the most delicious jam. Flakey, fluffy and layered so it's a good size. We order the Southern Benny with chronic bacon on top (best recommendation by the staff) instead of ham and a poached eggs. The gravy was phenomenal and flavorful and it's a plate lickin meal. Grab a Waffle and Berries if you want a little sweet but together you could share it all, which is what we did. I couldn't have picked a better place to try on the first day in Franklin. The staff was so sweet and the restaurant even had a coffee bar, upset I didn't order coffee but always next time!! Cute outside patio and the most adorable bathroom... Who doesn't love Dolly

The pulled pork was delicious, and the mac 'n cheese and collard greens were absolutely yummy. A total standout was the cornbread pancake--I completely loved it. The fried pickles were another highlight; I loved that they slice them instead of serving them as spears. The fried okra is good but I like mine with a little more salt, but overall, it was an incredible meal. We loved everything about this place and highly recommend it!

This spot is busy busy busy, and thankfully they have separate ordering lines for takeout and dine-in. My husband and I got two breakfast sandwiches to-go, with sides of breakfast potatoes. You can choose what meat you'd like on your sandwich, and we went with sausage. It's an upcharge to get your sandwich on a croissant, and then another upcharge to add on sauce or another topping. All in all, we spent more than $40 for two breakfast sandwiches and sides of potatoes. You get what you pay for ... everything was delicious! The croissant was warm and flaky, and the eggs on the sandwich are served souffle-style, which means they melted in with the croissant and cheese for an ooey-gooey bite. While there is open seating outside, we ended up eating in our car because the heat index was 100°. I'd absolutely return to Perenn, and would plan ahead with a reservation to dine in next time!

This is my first time trying the potato casserole dish. It's not bad overall, the onions and peppers are perfectly Caramelized, the cheese pull is legit, I could care less about the potatoes though. They're big and mushy (that's next to a teaspoon for scale), making this dish too starchy.
