Good food and service and a great cup of coffee! I stopped in on a Saturday morning around 10 and…read moregrabbed a spot along the counter. I was greeted and got a cup of coffee right away. It didn't take long to decide on the Eggs Benedict which came with choice of several sides: I went with the fresh fruit. The place was nearly full, yet it wasn't that loud. It made waiting for my order pleasant. My coffee got topped off a couple times and I really appreciated that the temperature was immediately drinkable while providing a deep rich flavor. My order arrived along with my bill (my waitress hadn't asked if there would be anything else and also forgot to bring silverware.) I grabbed a napkin-rolled set of utensils from the counter and dug into my meal. The Canadian Bacon was thick cut and tasty. The eggs were poached to where there was just a small trickle of yolk when sliced. The Hollandaise Sauce was okay, but not as flavorful as I've had elsewhere. The fruit was house cut, but wasn't the freshest. Still okay, but maybe it had been cut hours before. I appreciate that they provided a steak knife to facilitate cutting through the stack, including the English muffin on the bottom. I was soon paying my bill at the cash register by the entrance and was on my way. Just enough to be full without feeling stuffed. Review #2798

My husband and I decided to branch out from our two favorite breakfast spots and chose Tom's. I had…read morehigh hopes because it has been recommended a few times. Sadly we were not impressed. Throughout the meal we continued to hear the person working at the host stand talking about how the owner will not fix the water damaged, bulging ceiling tiles. Not my favorite topic of breakfast. The service was fast and we loved our server. She always had my cup of coffee full and checked on us a few times throughout the meal. Very personable! The food was less than ideal. My pancakes were thin, dense, and too crispy. Not the good crispy edge from butter on a griddle, but dry as if it has been under a warmer all morning. My over medium eggs were good, but the hash browns were lacking any flavor at all. My husband really liked his chicken fried steak, and at $4 it was well worth it. The portion size was huge! He also ordered a bacon and egg breakfast sandwich. I tried it and it also was lacking flavor. No real bacon flavor and could have used some salt. Sadly with all of the other great breakfast/brunch spots in Franklin, I don't think we will be returning.

We heard the bell ring signifying our order was ready but she was at the coffee counter busy on her phone. She didn't pick ip our food until a second ringing of the bell. She did check on us and keep water full. So the food is ok. My husband had the burger, which was hand prepared, juicy and delicious. I had the Chicken Velvet soup and the bits of chicken were tough and dry. I also had an Ultimate BLT which was good with thick cut bacon and thin sliced avocado. So, it's probably not the place to come if you are on a quick lunch break. The burgers are good. There's limited parking around the square.

The cafe is now owned by Diane, Ann's daughter. The tables are packed tightly together, but we were happy to get the last seats in the house. Nostalgic photos of Franklin cover the walls. The place is loud but with a great positive energy. People are small-town friendly and talk between tables as they enjoy their biscuits and gravy. We cajoled with two regulars who told funny stories. Our server, Gill, was quick to the table and friendly. He checked on us several times to see if we needed anything. The menu is a mix of traditional breakfast options, sandwiches, salads and wraps. Prices are reasonable. Food came out quickly. My husband ordered their hand breaded tenderloin with fries. The tenderloin was massive with a great browned breading, served on a Kaiser roll. The pork was tender and juicy. It was a perfect tenderloin, worthy of the Indiana Tenderloin Trail. The hand-cut fries are lightly breaded, crispy and hot. There was an up-charge for the fries, but they were so good and worth it. It was rainy outside, so I had a bowl of the daily soup - broccoli cheddar. The soup was hot, thick, creamy with lots of broccoli and cheese and stuck to my ribs. My soup was served with packs of saltines. Free street parking is available if you're lucky to grab a spot. Well worth the drive to Franklin. Ps. They are closed Saturday and Sunday!

And, sadly, I fear it is still just fine OK and just all right. Right as I walked in the door, there was a strong strong smell of bleach that was really offputting. It was about 1:30 so a little early for such a strong chemical smell. We stayed to eat, and we quickly sat at a booth and greeted by friendly staff. We ordered some drinks and were left to look at the menu. I chose an omelette with hashbrowns and a coffee. The coffee was good - the omelette was oddly hard, not fluffy and seem to be scorched inside and out. Not necessarily blackened just overcooked while the hashbrowns were slightly on the cold side. I'm sure I could've sent it back, but it seemed a little too needy for such a restaurant. I added some hot sauce and ate about half. It is kind of offputting as well to have to be forced to watch conservative news on the TVs along the wall. I don't really enjoy having to watch any of the news shows while eating so I probably won't be back. There are just too many better places for breakfast or brunch that are nearby and this just isn't my cup of tea or my crowd of people.

I had orange juice and the Dippy Breakfast - two eggs, bacon and sausage, white toast. It was excellent! My husband had the protein breakfast which was low-carb and he said it was excellent also. Amber was working the entire dining room by herself and the place filled up with what appeared to be mostly regulars as soon as the doors opened. Even with waiting on an entire dining room of people single-handedly, Amber got everything right and our meal was served in a very timely manner. I loved observing how she knew so many of the people by name and what their usual drinks were etc. It speaks well of a business to have so many regulars. So all in all, I think the Friends Diner is going to become a place where we also regularly eat.

It's a hybrid between a breakfast spot and a cigar lounge vibe. We digged it! After sitting down our very friendly waitress came over and took our order.

The omelette was one of the best if not the best I've ever had. Stuffed FULL of all the mix ins and cheese with yummy breakfast potatoes. The star of the show was the gluten free pancakes. They were stellar!! Would highly recommend. This place is one of the easiest 5/5 I've ever given. 100% would recommend!!

The cocktail actually had some heat, and the glass was rimmed with Everything Bagel Seasoning. I'd never had that before. It was a tasty touch. The candied bacon garnish was divine. We ended up ordering a second round. The Jalapeño Deviled Eggs are outstanding. Smooth and creamy, topped with jalapeño and candied bacon. Every bite was a pleasure. For entrees, I got the Bourbon Jalapeño Shrimp. It had a light kick and tasted incredible. My husband ordered the Rise & Shine Chicken Biscuit. It was all tasty, but that biscuit was fluffy and salty, exactly how a good biscuit should be. Our server made the whole meal. She was friendly and patient with me even though I was having more trouble than usual deciding what to order. She also mixed our Bloody Marys, so she was working double duty and doing it well. The space strikes a balance between sophisticated and casual, so you can dress up or keep it relaxed and feel comfortable either way. We'll definitely be back!

I went in and was seated - and then waited nearly ten minutes for a server to come get my drink order. The restaurant isn't fancy, and I noticed several tables that were empty but still had dirty dishes. Maybe they had a rush that left... but the tables set with the dirty dishes for a while. I ordered an omelet, which came with two pancakes and hash browns. The pancakes were good, but the hash browns were somewhat cold and not crispy. I wanted sausage, onion, mushroom and pepper jack cheese in the omelet - it came as I ordered, but it was a slice of pepper jack cheese that was just laid inside the egg. It was hard to eat the omelet, since the cheese usually binds everything together. The server was nice, and the bill had cash vs credit costs. Overall it was okay, but definitely could use some improvements.

A good friend of mine lives in Franklin and she suggested we try Dale's for something new and a…read morechange of pace from the same ol same ol. I hadn't heard of Dale's until she told me about it. Par for the course, I made sure to check them out on Yelp first. It's a pretty good sized place with additional outdoor seating. It's very spacious and spread out without the tables being crammed together, including the booth space. It had a fresh looking and clean appearance too. The decor is pleasant. The place seemed to have an ample sized crowd when we arrived. We were seated right away and we had a kind and informative server. Dale's only serves breakfast and lunch and then they shut down early. They do not do dinner apparently. It seems they serve breakfast all day along with some lunch options. We decided to eat lunch because we got there a little bit after noon. The special of the day was sloppy Joe's. I decided to have a pork tenderloin sandwich with fries and coleslaw and my guest decided to get the sloppy Joe's special with fries. On a 10 scale, the coleslaw was a seven, the tenderloin sandwich was a nine, and the fries were an eight. The sloppy joe was a six. I think the reason why the sloppy Joe didn't rank higher is because it was just dry loose seasoned hamburger meat. It didn't have any sauce in it whatsoever to hold it together. It was more like a loose meat sandwich or a taco burger. Those sandwiches are generally drier and crumbly in texture. I also like the option of having some cheddar cheese with a sloppy joe, or any similar hamburger type of sandwich. I would definitely consider coming again and trying something different. I noticed they had some comfort food classics on their menu like ex: chicken and dumplings and meatloaf. I hear they're usually pretty busy and packed when it comes to their breakfast crowd. This restaurant is doing things the right way from what I can tell at this point. The bathroom was average in cleanliness, presentation/appearance. I stand by giving them a strong 4 star rating for them which stays on course with their already established 4 star rating.

The dining area has both booths and tables, and they had a fun Dalmatian fire hydrant decoration near the host/hostess stand that added character to the space. They serve Pepsi products for drinks. My son got lemonade and I just got water. I ordered the Sami, which came with country fried steak, two eggs over medium, hash browns, and two pancakes for $14.99. Peggy said that was a good choice, and my meal was tasty. The portion was filling and the pricing seemed reasonable.

It should have been $6.00, but the waitress charged for an egg entree instead of the sides only. For me a return visit for dry toast and eggs is not worth it. If you don't mind canola oil or margarine, that have lots of interesting options.
