Review Summary

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.

Absolute worst poutine - gravy tastes like tomato sauce. Waitress was nice.

Came here for a quick lunch, which it ended up not being at all. While the food was quite good, the service was SOOO slow. The restaurant was pretty much full & there was only 1 server. What should have been a quick & casual meal ended up being almost 2 hours long. The food is good, but not worth the wait.

Of course MTL has a lot to offer & so much to see. Our group wanted a relaxed place with great food & TVs for hockey playoffs. This place provided all that we wanted & more!! The manager Geoff & Tristan (sorry if spelled incorrectly) provided great customer service & great vibes during our time there. We were in MTL for 6 days & we managed to return to Franklins several times either for quick drinks, a night of food & drinks or even just to say Hi while exploring the old port &/or shopping. Highly recommend!

I love Franklins. We visit Montreal once a year from San Diego & they always treat us like family. The food is great & the cocktails are amazing. I highly recommend!

Came here several times while visiting from San Diego & thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food & cocktails. 4 TV screens at the bar make this a great place to watch the hockey games. All of the staff at Franklins were friendly & engaging & went above & beyond to ensure me & my group had a great experience. Can't recommend this place enough. Will absolutely be back next time I'm in Montreal. (Sorry I forgot to take pictures)

Their poutine is legit! Glad the old port has real good poutine place. It has fresh cheese in great quantity!

Super adresse pour grignoter. A l'opposé des chaînes de Fastfood. 👍

We got a smoked meat poutine to go, & it was perfect as a late night snack. The portion was huge - too much for one person, & best shared with another person (unless you're really hungry & looking for a meal!) I liked how it wasn't too salty, unlike many other poutines that I've tried before.

Go here! Really low key, casual, good value & fun atmosphere. The smoked meat poutine was the best I've had & I've tried a lot of poutine. People behind us came in & out with tour guides just to pick up the poutine to-go on their tour so that tells you it's a spot worth going to. Our waiter was even kind enough to change out a bill for us to have enough bus fare (they only take coins unless you buy a pass). I'd definitely recommend Franklins & go again.

Went here for brunch while staying at a nearby hotel. The server on the floor was attentive, kind, & spoke both English & French. The food was delicious, I didn't need to ask for any extra condiments or napkins. I got the Beyond Meat Burger combo with fries & a soda. Prices were consistent with the market & not super inflated. The atmosphere is awesome! Highly recommend!

Cute spot but food took a half hour to come, too long for a casse croute.
