Franklin's Subs and Suds est situé sur la rue St-Paul dans le Vieux-Montréal. Le sous-marin « Philly cheesesteak » à l’honneur au Franklin’s Subs and Suds. Le décor est très réconfortant, jeux d’arcade, magnifique graffiti avec musique d’ambiance.
Les avis convergent pour décrire une ambiance chaleureuse et décontractée avec une déco rétro et une playlist entraînante, et un service rapide et attentionné. La carte est variée et généreuse, avec des coups de coeur pour le smoked meat sandwich, la poutine et le Philly cheesesteak, sans oublier les burgers et les accompagnements qui reçoivent souvent des compliments; les cocktails et les boissons sont également bien appréciés et les portions généreuses. Certaines remarques mentionnent que la poutine peut être un peu grasse ou manquer de saveur selon les plats, et que l'ambiance peut etre plus bruyante que prévu, pas forcément adaptée aux jeunes enfants. Dans l'ensemble, Franklin's est perçu comme une adresse conviviale et abordable pour un déjeuner ou une sortie entre amis, avec un personnel globalement sympathique et des conseils utiles, et c est un lieu qui donne envie de revenir.
Service, food, & atmosphere were all incredible!!! Definitely will be coming back when I visit Montreal in the future. Shoutout to our server Jeff, he was amazing 10/10 service. I ordered the regular smoked meat sandwich. The meat was juicy snd delicious, the sourdough bread was freshly baked, the pickle had a nice crunch, & the mustard gave a nice acidic kick! Mouthwatering is definitely an understatement! As someone who takes pride in the food they eat, I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Montreal to come to this gem of a restaurant.
The smoked meat sandwhich was delicious, & Jeff was a kind & attentive server! The interior has great music & ambiance, definitely a must visit place if you are in Montreal!

Stumbled upon this place accidentally & honestly did not expect to be this impressed. The Montreal smoked meat sandwich was the real deal, perfectly tender & generously stacked just the way it should be. The cheesesteak hoagie was equally amazing, juicy, cheesy & honestly one of the better ones I've had in the city.
If you wanted to try smoked meats this is the place to go! Delicious food & quick service though it seems a bit cramped it's actually a very comfortable dining experience with a nice atmosphere
Jeff & his wife have a fantastic place in Old Montreal. We were greeted right away & sat, & ordered food. Food came out quickly & was unreal - get the smoked meat sandwich & poutine. Thank me later!
We wanted late evening eats & found this amazing establishment.
Loved the smoked meat & smash burgers. Next table over ordered poutine & we were sad we did not get that too! Welcome casual vibes, initial service & food delivery was prompt & friendly. Will revisit to try more & check the playlist.

We were exploring old Montreal & came across Franklin's, decided to go in for smoked meat sandwiches, because you just gotta.
Franklin's has a really good vibe inside - cool retro décor & good music that makes it a nice place to hang out. Service was great: friendly staff & very quick, which we appreciated.
Food-wise, it was mixed. The smoked meat was just okay & quite fatty, which took away from it, & not much flavour. Fries were tasty & probably the highlight. The poutine, however, was also just okay & didn't really stand out.
Overall, nothing was bad, but nothing impressed enough to recommend it either. I wouldn't tell people to stay away, but I wouldn't go out of my way to suggest it.
I had high expectations when entering this establishment. I saw the reviews, photos & I was excited to try this place. Before this place, I tried Lester's Deli & Schwartz.
The service was good. She was nice & promptly helped us. Nothing much to say but she was nice.
Ordered the smoked meat sandwich, poutine & a hot dog wiz cheese. The smoked meat sandwich was a big surprise but not in a good way. I was told that they switched their smoked meat(resource) from a different a place. When I asked my waitress when did they made the changes she said today, which is December 21st.
The meat wasn't red like the other places but I couldn't taste anything that was smoked meat. I thought it was roast beef but it really wasn't good at all.
Poutine was average. Cheese curd wasn't squeaky & it didn't have much of a chew. hot dog was average, but it was cheap. I think the hot dog is for eating to fill that to enjoy the taste.
I don't know if she was being serious that they changed their smoked meat that day. I hope she wasn't messing with me.
I think the food might taste better if you are drunk or a bit tipsy. I don't drink unfortunately so I cannot see if that would be the case. Maybe it was a bad night, maybe something changed within the business. But it was disappointing that night & my review is based on that night.

Me & my friends tried the Smoked Meat Poutine & sandwich & the poulet poutine & it was delicious! Theo was an amazing server & gave us really good recommendations!
We split a smoked meat sandwich plate & onion rings. The sandwich was huge (why we decided to share) & delicious. The fries were really good & the onion rings were fantastic. Came with pickles & a unique cole slaw (apple cider vinegar?). Service was fast & friendly, very happy we stopped here.

Montréal smoked meat, should be available worldwide & this restaurant does it to perfection! So tender & tasty it's a must try for tourists & anyone else
Franklin's claims to have the best smoked meats in town. I can't confirm or deny this claim as I haven't tried elsewhere, but this place certainly sets the bar high. Would highly recommend for lunch if you're in the area as it also comes with great service.
Really enjoyed my lunch at Franklin's. The guy at the bar did a top notch job, super friendly & gave good reccommendations. I loved the TV setup, great for viewing sports. The smoked meat sandwich was pretty good. Now it's not as good as Texas BBQ, sorry Montreal! But it was tasty & I'm glad to sample some of the local food in my trip to the city. Great place for lunch in Montreal.
