Franklin's Subs and Suds is located on St-Paul street in Old-Montreal. Delicious "Philly Cheesesteak" submarines are the main attraction. The decor is very comforting, you'll find arcades, beautifully designed graffiti and great ambient music.
Franklin's is described as a lively casual spot with warm, energetic ambiance and retro decor that sets a social mood for a night out or a casual lunch. The smoked meat sandwich, poutine, and Philly cheesesteaks are frequently praised, along with solid burgers and tasty wings, while the drinks and playlists are highlighted as major mood boosters. Service is repeatedly commended for attentiveness and friendliness, with many noting standout bartenders and welcoming hospitality that makes the experience feel personal and easygoing. The vibe is described as sports-friendly and convivial, great for groups, but some reviews mention the space can be loud and not always kid-friendly, with occasional menu items varying in quality such as poutine that can be salty or a sandwich that isn’t as robust as hoped. Taken together the place seems to offer great value, tasty food, and a memorable scene that invites return visits.
Petite place débordante d'énergie. La décoration éclatante avec des accessoires vintage comme poupée Bout'chou, poupée Chucky, cover de Playboy, etc. On est accueilli rapidement avec sourire & bonne humeur. Service exemplaire. Cuisine délicieuse. Portion plus que parfaite. J'ai tout mangé tellement c'était bon! & ils m'ont fait ma demande, jus moitié raisin, moitié pêche, comme dans mon enfance 💛 J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner!
A great place in Old Port for fast food, in a cozy, fun, & playful setting. The service is excellent & attentive. It is also very fast! We ordered a little bit of everything & were not disappointed. We loved the fried pickles, smoked meat plate, hot-dog, & chicken wings! The drinks are strong & well done!

We found this little gem on the first day of our trip to Montreal. We were cold, starving & kinda lost when we found it. We had a smoked meat poutine & a philly's cheesesteak sub. Our host, Jean Francois, was very attentive, super friendly, & very knowledgeable. Drinks were on point. The food was served incredibly fast & delicious. Definitely 100% recommended!
