The Franklin Inn

Franklin Inn is always so friendly to me and my dogs...they bring the water and me beer, and on Wed. the have a $6 somethin smash burger that is fabulous! Nice neighborhood place where I've met so many different waljs of life. Can't do better than here as a local. 5 stars. I can't believe I haven't rated this yet.

The atmosphere is great! It is very charming and old (in a good way)! The staff is super friendly and prices are fair! The food is normal bar food, but they do have good weekly deals. Definitely recommend going!

I had a wonderful time at this Museum District local gem with a friend of mine. First of all this spot is super Richmond. It has a local feel and is incredibly cozy. It's a tinier space so feels very intimate. Our waitress was extremely kind. They also have great happy hour deals. You can find both food and drink deals.On my visit I ordered the wings with smoky barbeque, a side of broccoli, and a mini mac. The wings were so juicy and tasty. I wish they had a bit more of a crunch on the outside, but they were still so good. The sauce was great. I really loved the way they prepared their broccoli. I devoured the mac and cheese. I can be picky with homemade mac and cheese, and really enjoyed this one. If you're looking for a casual and yummy spot for food, I highly recommend visiting The Franklin Inn.

We had a great night at Franklin Inn, and look forward to joining them on burger nights in the future! On Wednesdays, they do a six dollar burger, usually almost $15. The french fries were great, my favorite part of the meal. The bun for the burger was nice and soft. The wings were good, could be a bit meatier. The service was good, and there was a friendly atmosphere in the bar area. This is definitely a cozy neighborhood bar, and I hope to visit again soon!

My husband and I tried this cute neighborhood corner spot for brunch today. It was super cute and cozy and welcoming. We chose a little booth and were immediately greeted. We ordered coffee, a mimosa, the veggie biscuit and the southern biscuit and a side of potatoes. My husband loved his mimosa. The biscuits were delicious: light and flaky! The breakfast potatoes, not so much. But we won't hold that against them because they took it off our tab and everything else was great!

Was there this past Saturday, wait a great little neighbour's resturant/bar. Great selection of beers(craft included), and wine. Bourbon for days!!! Lol. But the best part for me was they had this tiny little kitchen but the food that left it was amazing to look at and listening to the guests down right good! If you have not been there ,please try it out

One of those places that you're not sure if you should post a review because the regulars may hunt you down and silence you, this cozy little gem has been serving arguably the best burger in town for years, and also features a great brunch menu. Not the biggest place, so a meal at peak time may mean a wait, but the food is worth it. With my "Smash it all the way" burger were fries so fresh that the potato was still mad for giving them up. The "all the way" part features pickled jalapenos (not too hot to overpower the burger's taste), fried onions, bacon and pimento cheese. Usually pimento cheese will make the burger useless without a fork, but this was the perfect amount to make the double patties gooey but not unable to be picked up. If you want to visit old Ben Franklin head downstairs to one of the washrooms to see a portrait of the original C-note gangsta up on the wall. Otherwise grab a brew and a burger and go all the way!

I'm a sucka for the clucka --the Franklin Inn Clucker that is. Excuse the 1/2 finished plate, I couldn't wait. I add some and pickled jalapeños cause I'm extra AF, but as is -- Tender, buttermilk chicken. Their own breading that includes ranch seasoning (trust & believe...it elevates), pickles, crisp romaine, FRANK SAUCE (way better--we're on this journey together)! A beautiful buttery toasty bun & hand cut fries completes this masterpiece.

Get the smash burger!!! Best burger I've had in Richmond. I could see into the kitchen while they made the food, and it was definitely made with love. Fries are homemade too, not those nasty frozen ones. Overall, it's a tiny but cozy place with great food and drinks - would recommend!

I came here because a few people had said they had an amazing grilled chicken sandwich. I'm not sure if I just came on a bad night, but my first sandwich came out suspiciously fast, and it ended up being cold to the touch. I told the server, who took it back to the kitchen. Not soon after, another sandwich came out suspiciously fast. As someone who cooks chicken at home pretty often, I know the time I waited was not enough to reach 165 degrees. When I opened up the bun, the piece of chicken was roughly two inches at its widest point, with tons of jiggly chunks of fat on it. I ate the parts that seemed edible, paid, and left. The place is super cozy, and the staff is kind. Food just suuuuucked. $30 down the drain.
