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.
Absolutely Love! Was recommended as my tour guide's favourite poutine spot in Old Montreal, & while I didn't get that, their Smash Burger did not disappoint at all! Highly recommend!
The vibes were great! shoutout Tasnime!
J'ai mangé chez Franklin's au Vieux-Port de Montréal & j'ai vraiment adoré mon expérience. La nourriture était délicieuse, bien présentée & pleine de saveurs. Chaque plat semblait préparé avec soin.
L'ambiance était tout aussi remarquable : chaleureuse, accueillante & parfaite pour passer un bon moment, que ce soit entre amis, en couple ou en famille. Le service était également très attentionné.
Je recommande fortement Franklin's si vous cherchez un endroit où bien manger tout en profitant d'une belle atmosphère au coeur du Vieux-Port. J'y retournerai sans hésiter !
