a burger and fries on a plate
Marc F.

Amazing outdoor seating. Great service and food. The cheeseburger was big enough for two meals. Breadsticks and beef tips were on point as well. Highly recommend!

A wonderful, fun environment! Stopped in with my mom Thursday night and there was a live band that was really energetic and interactive. They played a mix of different music, which most people could sing along to. There is a patio area that had a lot of outdoor seating and was well-kept. Our server was extremely nice and was very friendly with the everyone and knew the regular customers by name. It is definitely a fun, local bar. We ordered two beers each and Tim's Munchies, which is a build-your-own combo basket. We got the cream cheese poppers, fried pickle spears (which didn't come out as spears), and the breaded mushrooms. All the food was decent fried food that was better than any fast food establishment. Overall, the staff is all very friendly, the live music is a very good compliment to the bar, and the food is above average. I can definitely feel the hometown vibe, which I absolutely love.

The Breaded Tenderloin Meal. (Tater-Tots for the side)

Went on a Friday around 11 and it was packed, not much room to wait, and the hostess said most days the wait list is pages long so you know it's a popular establishment. Service was great, friendly, and attentive. Food was delicious and would definitely go back! Lots of parking options close by

Ann's has been in my radar for years. The little cafe off the Square is always packed with locals…read more Ann's claims to be the oldest restaurant in Franklin, opening in 1952. 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!

The son of the owner informed me this location and the Martinsville location are owned by his mom…read more It has been many months since I visited the Martinsville location and their menu has really expanded to include a plethora on lunch choices in addition to an expanded breakfast menu at both locations. And he said the menu will expand again soon. Since I was by myself and he had some time, he sat down and we chatted for awhile. The seating at both restaurants, and you can call them that now since they do not just sell drinks anymore, has been greatly expanded both indoors and outside. He also told me they are working on opening a Plainfield location. I ordered my usual The Slugger on a biscuit for my bread choice (4) with sausage for my meat choice (3) and provolone for my cheese choice (5). It was superb and just how I remembered it from the other location when I was eating breakfast there several days a week about a year ago. I also ordered one Biscuit & Gravy which was excellent as well. I love small local business establishments and cooking. They always have great service and a friendly atmosphere. I parked in the public parking lot across the street since it was a Saturday and street parking was full. The restroom was clean, well stocked and had a pleasant fragrance.

Great spot to grab a bite before heading to the ArtCraft for a movie! Breakfast and lunch options…read morewith enormous coffee flavor selections. Team is knowledgeable and helpful. Outdoor dining available in warmer months.

This is my second Big Wood location to visit, and overall a good experience. It's tucked away from…read morethe main drag and sits overlooking the golf course (the big, main room and connected outdoor patio both have a great view!) - but this area at least is open to the public. I was worried when we couldn't make any reservations, but we got right in - nobody was waiting, they weren't busy, but they did seem to be scrambling to find a server for us, which I thought was a little odd. After a weird start, the rest of the visit was fantastic - service was great, food was excellent, and we had a lovely time on a date night. Restrooms are on the first floor (an older review says the women's is downstairs in a creepy hallway, but this must have been renovated) and are single-occupancy and unisex, which is an interesting experience depending on who has visited before you -- this was probably the low point of the experience, that restroom could use some upkeep. Not just an unpleasant previous visitor, but structurally. For such a nice place, that part was sketchy. Definitely will be coming back overall.

I was using the bathroom when glancing into the kitchen and noticed multiple jars left open and stuff all over the counters, I can't judge though because they were short staffed and it was very crowded. There was a girl sitting on her phone during the busy afternoon I did not see her wash her hands. Once again I can't judge this because you never know what was going on in someone's life like an important situation but she was giggling and a different staff member, our waitress god bless her corrected her and told her to put it away. Our waitress was an absolute queen she was constantly at our aid and was running the place, I didn't catch her name but she had brown curly hair and glasses. The food was phenomenal I ordered the yogurt parfait, strongly recommend because it was super fun to assemble and I felt like a skinny queen eating it. Overall had a good time with family despite the little concerns!
