I stopped by Franklin's for takeout & had mixed feelings about the meal. The smoked meat sandwich was a bit disappointing as the meat wasn't very tender & lacked the texture I was expecting. The burger was decent, but nothing that really stood out.

The highlight of the meal was definitely the poutine. It was fresh, flavorful, & easily the best part of the order.

Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, but based on this visit I'd probably come back for the poutine rather than the smoked meat.

Phenomenal atmosphere, food, & vibes. The smash burger was so good I couldn't get a photo before it was finished & the wings were cooked perfectly. This place is a hidden gem. Great drinks & the servers, bartender, & manager will give great service & recommendations for local spots. Best smash burger in Montreal from someone who is very picky on burgers.

Nous sommes arrêté pour le dîner. Petit mais chaleureuxvLa place est plus où moins à la moitié. Le temps que nous passons notre commande, çà se remplit. Décor un peu disparate. Menu simple : burgers, sous-marins, smoked meat & poutines.

On the last day of a bachelorette trip, we explored Old Montreal & stumbled upon Franklins. The space was eclectic with such a great atmosphere. There were 13 of us, & the food came out incredibly fast, every single one of us was obsessed with how good everything tasted (their cheesy burger tastes like shake shack).

Beyond the amazing service, I unfortunately left my wallet at the restaurant & didn't realize until I was already back in Toronto. Theo & Jeff went above & beyond to track me down & ship it back to me. I've rarely experienced that level of care & kindness. I'm so grateful!

Overpriced, food isn't great. I ordered the pina colada was way too sweet, & the beyond meat sub didn't have any veggies in it. Burgers are subpar.
