McCreary's is the real deal Irish pub and eatery. Guests are welcomed from Franklin, Tennessee straight into Ireland, especially on Friday and Saturday nights when live Celtic music adds the perfect ambiance for a pint of Guinness and fish and chips. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, McCreary's serves up a traditional Irish breakfast menu which includes such familiar Irish dishes as Ulster fry, bangers and hot potatoes, and bread pudding French toast. The service and atmosphere at McCreary's is exactly as you would expect from a good Irish pub: friendly and inviting. -Lynn-nore Chittom

In case the name didn't give it away, Franklin's specialty is meat. Chicken, ribs and beef are served up in classic American style. Enormous portions and reasonable prices make this restaurant a favorite with families and large groups. The menu deviates from the basic meat dishes to pasta and seafood platters. They are equally tasty and reasonably priced. Extra hungry patrons choosing should try the authentic Maryland Crab Cakes for an appetizer.

Nestled in the quiet setting of Carter's Court, this cozy Bunganut Pig club serves classic British "pub grub" and features live music nightly. A warm and friendly wait staff and pleasant atmosphere create a perfect setting to relax over a stout and a juicy steak. But don't get too relaxed, the music starts in the evening each night, and there is very little quiet time after that. Come early, and enjoy a good meal. Don't forget to ask your server to tell you the "Pig Story."
