Spoiler; I'm a huge fan of burgers!If your looking for not your average run of the mill burgers this is the place.Got the Farm Burger, the mango chili glaze with the brie is a combination made in heaven, you add the onions and it's a done deal. With the addition of the arugala to balance the sweet and spice with a bit of bitter is just perfection, but the bacon seals the deal with the umami flavor.Got it with some sweet potato fires that were cooked perfectly. Also they feature a house blueberry ketchup that is phenomenal and a house ranch that deserves its own praise as well.I drive from Columbia 40 mins to eat here and it's worth it every time.
I went to the Franklin Burger Company one day in March during the afternoon and man o man what an interesting experience. I feel terribly sorry for the one young female server that basically took care the whole entire eatery (a be it it was dead and slow) in my visit. The vibe was of the place off but the burger was okay. My party ordered the tacos too and it wasn't warm and the fries wasn't warm either. This place is a great place to have cool temperatured food.It appears that this place shares staff from the Mexican restaurant next door and it seems like I know which restaurant gets preferential treatment and unfortunately my party, I was eating at red-headed stepchild of the two.I'm 99% certain that I won't be coming back to this place again.
Absolutely fantastic burger place. My wife and I love going here. Have had several of their burgers but the blueberry bacon one is by far the best! Also the blueberry ketchup is a must have!
We were there this evening anticipating a good dinner. When we walked in, we found nobody behind the bar, no one there to greet us, and one woman at the bar who said to the person she was talking to on the phone, “yeah someone just walked in.”We came at 7:30pm, so the place was open. There were dirty dishes on a number of tables inside but since we had a small dog we decided to eat outside. The one “clean” table was home to two half empty pitchers of tea and lemonade. No table was without dirty dishes.We waited outside at a table for about 15 minutes, but no one came to greet us. I ventured back inside to find someone. I checked the bar, both the bathrooms, but couldn’t find anyone. I yelled “hello?” through the door leading to the kitchen, but to no avail.I’d give this place zero stars if I could. I would have voiced my displeasure in person, but someone would have had to show up for me to do so. Hard pass.
Interesting selection of burgers. Well worth the visit.
Mediocre burgers, long waits and understaffed. I am so empathetic towards being understaffed that I waited very patiently for over an hour for our burgers. They were dry and underwhelming. The fries tasted leftover from lunch. Sadly we will never be back :(
I had much higher expectations. The food seemed unique but my burger came out cold. It didn’t seem super clean or well run. Oddly, the music they played dropped the F bomb many times, which I didn’t care for at all. Kept getting the smell of the bathroom where we sat. I was SO hoping this place would have been better. Would not recommend at all.
Wonderful place to stop for lunch! I had the “Farm” burger and it was fantastic! The burger was cooked perfectly and was juicy and the toppings where all paired excellently together. My husband had the “Franklin” burger and the house sauce was a great touch to a classic burger. The fries where cooked with just the right amount of crispy and salty. The service was great. Our waitress was attentive and very helpful. We will defiantly be returning again and again.
A delightful stop mid-day, for some lunch and a bevvie. I sat at the bar. Eliza was cheerful, friendly, helpful. The food, I ordered fish tacos, was nearly too pretty to eat. The music was contemporary and at a volume level to allow conversation and to partially cover conversation at other tables. Delightful break to a busy day.
Guacamole was spicy, but I like spicy. Burger was a little over done from the medium we asked for it to be. Kale salad was OK, I should have gotten some protein in it. Truffle fries were very truffly if that's a word, but I liked them because I love truffles. Was very empty when we got there at lunch time.
