    Biscuits and gravy with a side sweet hot chicken breast
    Daniel Z.

    I have to be honest, walked into two other places in the downtown prior to settling on this place (other two looked historic etc but you ordered at the counter ). We were seated at a booth near the back of the bar and it was perfect (fairly quiet and out of the way). Our waitress, I believe Kelly, was absolutely outstanding. Pleasant, we never needed anything as she was very efficient but let us enjoy our meal. Now the food. Maybe the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had. Chunks of sausage with tons of flavor in the gravy. Biscuit was incredible. Silly as this sounds, even the over easy eggs were great. Bacon great flavor but maybe needed another minute in the pan. I ordered a sweet hot chicken breast on the side-holy smokes that was good. Kelly topped off our great experience/meal with to-go coffees.

    The Peacemaker
    Christina L.

    We went here for breakfast, and it was so good! We both got The Peacemaker and did a mix and match for the eggs Benedict. Coffee was good. Server was attentive. The menu had so many options, and we would love to go back and try other menu items.

    I loved the menu... so many things to consider... fried green tomatoes... yum... spicy chicken on a homemade biscuit... yum.... Everything looks amazing... It was really hard to make a choice.. and parking is not easy in Franklin but worth it... very cute area...

    Ordered a delivery order of biscuits and gravy and no gravy was included in the bag. Defiantly ruined my breakfast.

    Appetizer French Toast Bites Starter

    The French toast bites were AMAZING. I ordered the biscuits and gravy but did not care for the gravy, it tasted more like Alfredo sauce which ruined the dish for me. My husband really liked his dish.

    White Chocolate Bread Pudding Pancakes
    Tiffany K.

    I am not the biggest fan of breakfast foods in general, but I love pancakes. And these pancakes... I would come back for. So fluffy! The white chocolate chips satisfied my sweet tooth. The mimosas were great, but the color made me a a bit skeptical (just my opinion). The server was very attentive!

    This is the fried green tomato
    Angela P.

    While the atmosphere and environment were pleasant and clean, the food was lacking. The white chocolate bread pudding pancakes were very good but the southern breakfast, especially the TINY fried green tomato left a lot to be desired. The service was so-so at best. We had to stop our waitress to ask for refills and to check on our food order. Next time we'll go to Puckett's

    Do they have bottomless mimosas?

    Not when I was there.

    Are there gluten free options?

    They said they were going to get a gluten free menu at some point like their other locations. For now you can modify some dishes, but they don't have gluten free bread or anything like that.

The app clearly advertised my order would be ready in about 9 minutes, so I planned everything accordingly--unlocked my office, set up my classroom, and timed it so I could grab my food and eat before my new hires arrived. The pickup time updated to 8:20 AM, which was already a slight delay--but manageable. I arrived... and my order wasn't ready. At 8:35, someone finally checked on it and told me it would be "2 more minutes" and that it was delayed due to a large catering order. That explanation made it seem like my order just wasn't a priority. 8:40... still nothing. Now I'm no longer just hungry--I'm on the verge of being late to run a professional training session. Meanwhile, the staff could clearly see me pacing back and forth for nearly 30 minutes, yet no one took ownership of the situation. At one point, I was even asked if I had been helped--which was surprising considering I had been standing there the entire time. I finally received my food at 8:47 AM, leaving me just enough time to rush back before my presentation. Afterward, I called to speak with a manager. The person I spoke with said she was a manager, apologized, and offered to remake the food (which made no sense given the time already lost). She then said she would issue a refund and took my number to follow up. That call never came. No refund. No follow-through. This experience showed a lack of urgency, communication, and accountability. I understand delays happen--but ignoring a waiting customer and failing to honor a promised resolution is unacceptable. I won't be relying on this location again, especially during a workday.

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!

No hacks, no substitutions, no overthinking it, just a quietly elite Southern breakfast move that feels like it deserves its own line on the menu. The foundation is what makes it work. The grits here are genuinely excellent, creamy, well-seasoned, and clearly made with intention. And it's not a small scoop either; the bowl is three side orders of grits. This is not a light breakfast situation. One practical note: they're thick enough that they show up without a spoon. Not a complaint, just a moment of "respect the density." Once you break the yolks, though, everything loosens up into that rich, cohesive, borderline dangerous comfort food zone. What stands out is how unbothered the kitchen is about it. It comes out clean, properly executed, no questions asked, as if this is just a completely normal, correct way to eat breakfast. Bottom line: simple, rooted in Southern tradition, and easily one of the best ways to experience Puckett's grits.
