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.
Reviews describe a lively casual spot in the Old Port with strong drinks, quick service and a menu that shines on smoked meat sandwiches, poutine and burgers, delivering solid value and a welcoming vibe. The atmosphere ranges from cozy to energetic, aided by retro decor, music and a bar scene that makes it easy to hang out. The staff are described as attentive and friendly, providing fast service and helpful recommendations. While experiences are mostly positive, some notes mention crowding, noise and occasional variability in dishes such as the poutine. Overall Franklin's is seen as a reliable choice for lunch or a casual night out in Montreal, offering memorable smoked meat and good drinks with a lively social vibe.
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!
Jeff provided absolutely top-notch service during our visit! Not only was he attentive & professional, but his sense of humor & collection of hilarious (& surprisingly relatable) drunk stories truly made my experience unforgettable. It's rare to find someone who can strike the perfect balance between excellent service & genuine entertainment. Jeff is a gem-highly recommend asking for him if you want an amazing experience. Thanks, Jeff!
Nous avons passé une top soirée moi & ma femme dans votre restaurant pour le jour de l'an. Avec une serveuse adorable & souriante. Nous avons bien manger & bien bu. Avec une bonne cuisine & des cuisiniers au top. Une ambiance très conviviale & agréable. Je recommande fortement avec des prix très abordables. En tout cas, une chose de sûre nous allons y retourner.

Franklin in Montreal offers a culinary experience that's undeniably impressive, with dishes that are expertly crafted & bursting with flavor. I had the fish & chips, which were perfectly crispy with a tender, flaky interior, & the steak poutine-a decadent delight with rich gravy, tender steak bites, & perfectly melted cheese curds. The food alone could easily make this spot a favorite. However, the ambiance left something to be desired. The background music, while modern, included tracks with adult sarcastic language that felt out of place &, frankly, off-putting for an otherwise upscale dining experience. It distracted from what could have been a completely enjoyable evening. While the food was memorable, I hope Franklin reconsiders their playlist to better match the quality of their menu & create a more welcoming atmosphere for all diners. If you're someone who prioritizes food over ambiance, it's worth a visit-but be prepared for an edgy soundtrack.
Such a cozy spot with good food & cocktails. Tristian is so welcoming & truly makes the experience at Franklins. The Franklins Poutine was divine- a must get!

Popped in before heading to Les Foufounes Électriques & had a great experience. Sapporo on tap, smoked meat poutine was plentiful & delicious. Plenty of tvs to watch sports. Visiting from NYC & it's definitely a chill, late-night eatery vibe. Music is great, at level where you can talk to your company. Super friendly staff.
