Rathskeller

Haven't tried the pastries but those appear to be the best options. Good beer on tap, fun bartenders, staff and ownership. You'll feel like you're a local. Check it out. Truly a fun time.

Let me tell you. J Bird brought the tunes and the drinks were flowing on New Years Eve. Great time. Great staff.

Our usually first stop on our Franklin nerd crawl. Cool place for coffee, drinks, and live music occasionally. A small game space at the back hosts a few popular board games.

Random stop turned out as great experience and delicious coffee. It's a very interesting design inside. Also, you can have a beer and listen a live music on a wknds.

Was very excited to make this review. Came here last year when I was in town visiting, and absolutely fell in love! Such a great atmosphere. Wonderful staff. Live music, lots of games, wonderful menu. Love that the locals keep their favorite mug on the wall. Great little find !!❤

I love coffee and this is the best coffee I've had so far in town. Everything single time. And the espresso drinks are a price that doesn't break the bank. Lots of coffee gives me jitters and this coffee only gives me life.

Fantastic atmosphere, wonderful owners and staff. Amazing and fresh quiches and baked goods. My husband and I have already made friends just by hanging out here.

Easy parking in the back, free wifi, live music on the weekends.

It's a little dark when you first step inside and you might think "what am I getting myself into" especially if you come on trivia night and it's packed and loud, but come on in and you'll be happy. Or come on a Tuesday during the day and you'll have a nice couch to sit on for hours while drinking you amazing coffee and using great free wifi.

This place will sorely be missed if it ever closes, if you are are local and have never come in, please come check it out, there is something here for absolutely everyone.

Neat little place. Came here on a coffee date with my wife. She loved her dirty chi latte and my cappuccino was good. We had fun trying to name all the countries of the flags on the ceiling.

Cool, little bar/coffee bar tucked away on the backside of the main st in Franklin. We needed a little pick me up before hitting the road to get back home and the lattes we had were very good. The people are kind and warming. The atmosphere was chill, local, and laid back. They usually always have live music, this guy that prop lives there playing guitar and singing lol. It stays busy here so be warned there maybe a line to order but its worth the wait.

Great little place ~ Cappuccino is my thing 🙂
But they have beer on tap too ~ and a nice menu for lunch. Today they had quiche 👍

I love this spot! If I were local, this would be my go-to spot for coffee. I had an Irish Cream today which I highly recommend but didn’t think to snap a photo till it was already gone. Very cool local hang.

My favorite place for coffee, quiche, or any other freshly baked item. The owners are always there and make for such a pleasant visit.

Had a great time hanging out at the Rathskeller. Lots of beer choices, stayed with PBR draft. Laid back, cool people to talk with at the bar. Musicians were playing at open mic night, fun to watch. Staff very friendly.

I'd give this place a 5 star on atmosphere alone but then I had a coffee and it was damn tasty as well.

I don't drink beer but it sure looked like they had to a good selection.

There was a small performance area. I can only imagine how nice this place must be with the right musical act paint there.

This place definitely stirred some memories of my favorite hangouts from when I lived overseas.

Whoever runs the Rathskeller has done a great job with this place.

Their traditional European coffees are great quality. The ambiance is a perfect little cozy cave and it livens up when they have local bands play. Prices are reasonable and all their baked goods are homemade. This is definitely one of my new favorite places in Franklin.

I love Rathskeller. I DJ there once a week and everything is so great! The owners are pretty cool too!

Great people. Very kind and helpful. Plus the coffee and lattes are the best around!

Great choices for coffee and snacks. The peanut butter cookies are amazing. Service ass great, decent wifi and awesome atmosphere.

Stopped in on a quiet Thursday noontime. Dined outside with our dog. Tasty veggie burger that was more like a sloppy joe. Super friendly staff. Nice selection of beer.

Great little hidden bar! Drinks are inexpensive and the hole in the wall feel is nice!

Tried out the garlic cheese bun - can’t tell you enough how amazing it is! They make them fresh in house. Chocked full of gooey delicious cheese!!!! These will be addicting XD Overall great spot with really chill vibes. Excellent place to meet up with friends for coffee!
