Well... what can I say about The Well? A LOT of good things…read more The atmosphere is so cheerful & inviting. You can sit inside or outside there are plenty of tables. Great place to bring kids to work off some energy on the playground. Definitely carve out some time to visit you will want to stay a while & savor the experience. The coffee , tea & chocolate chip cookie was oh so delicious! My husband gave his coffee 8/10 & my chamomile lemongrass decaf tea was a 10/10! Highly recommend! Service was awesome too! The Well is a must do! Cheers

There was plenty of free parking outside the store as well. The staff were very kind and gave us their recommendations! My friends and I got a spicy mocha and peppermint mocha (seasonal item). I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious they both were!! The drinks were smooth. The spicy mocha had the perfect balance of being spice-forward and sweetness. Would definitely recommend !

HONESTLY, LIKE SO GOOD!…read more The craft coffees were so good! I don't normally go to the same place to order something different as I'd rather try another new place but this was the exception! I went back the following day to enjoy another hand crafted latte and it did not disappoint! The BLY sandwich was wonderful, it had a special aioli and (my mouth is watering as I type this) SOOOO GOOD! Ambiance was quant, clean, charming, modern and ... still can't get over the coffee. Honest is seriously the best, if you're considering trying this spot out, don't think, just do. I came with a group of friends and very on loved the service and the food. Totally worth it. Five stars!

I went into the Factory craving a smoothie and by my surprise the coffee shop partnered with the local juice (Franklin Juice) and had fresh smoothies. My friend got their latte and said it was great as well. I would love to try their pastries next time I go. Tons of people working from the location. The staff was very friendly, I think I need to add this to my work from home rotation.

I love Surefire, so making this my 4/5 locations tried. Can't lie, this location was hard to find!…read moreGPS was easy but if it wasn't for that, the way finding isn't great. I feel like if you didn't go to church here you wouldn't know it existed (unless you're a super fan and looked specifically for it). I'll 5 star it because I'm a big fan of their coffee, especially the banana bread chai (which is what I got - fantastic as always). The inside has a lot of space, and a kids area (which is not my thing at all, assuming it was there before the biz though), and seems to have a decent amount of seating. Glad we managed to miss the church crowd or it wouldn't have happened. Service was quick and easy, pleasant young woman.

I walked in, glanced at the menu for approximately 2.7 seconds, and knew exactly what destiny had in store for me: the Salted Queen Caramel Latte. (Yes ma'am. Royalty in a cup.) I placed my order with a young lady who was polite, friendly, and engaging, the kind of person who makes you feel like you've been coming there for years, even if you just figured out where to stand. Five-star customer service before the caffeine even hit. Seating options? Oh, they've got you covered. You can sit outside upstairs and pretend you're in a Hallmark movie, or stay inside where it's cool and comfortable. We chose inside. The high-top table had USB ports and electrical plugs, which is a classy move. Nothing says "we care" like letting people charge their phone while they charge their soul. And yes, there's WiFi if you feel the need to actually work instead of just looking productive. Then I heard it, my name called out like I'd just won a prize. I stepped forward... and met my Salted Queen Caramel Latte. Wow. It was better than expected. Smooth. Rich. Perfectly balanced. I took one sip and this Old GOAT almost fainted. Which is ironic... because that's exactly where we were. If you live in Franklin and haven't tried The Fainting Goat Coffee, you're missing out. Go meet the Queen. Just be prepared... you might faint.

Great experience here! Immediately was thrilled for the parking lot and ease of coming and going…read more Once stepping in, I was thankful for how they set up their orders with a great layout of how they used their space. It didn't take them long for them to make my drink, a salted queen latte, even though they were quite busy. I'm sure thanks to how they have their space setup as well as some fabulous workers! Loved how there were more private booth spaces. Genius! The drink was nummy + exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much, Fainting Goat Coffee!! Hey next time carry more sizes of shirts so I can continue to spread word of your great coffee shop!

Wilson truly is a local gem, and the same could be said about his restaurant Sweet Dreams…read more Food: He offers a variety of items that one wouldn't typically find together, and he does them all incredibly well. Using Taiwanese quality import ingredients, he makes everything from scratch. From delightful but expected savory dishes like noodles, ribs beef and his famous wonton. Get 'em while you can!!! --to his staple traditional boba drinks; then the unexpected items like the surprisingly authentic Portuguese Egg Custard, which is a tart, flaky pastry wirh warm Custard and not too sweet (something my Brazilian wife absolutely appreciated for its authenticity). Don't forget the comfy japanese light cheese cake and delicious pie! Then running the astronomically good deal of a discounted cake cookie when purchased with a delicious boba drink that blows Crumbl right out of the water (and Crumbl is actually next door! Sorry Crumbl). Warm and soft on the inside, and a nice crunch on the outside. He went great lengths to ensure they weren't *too sweet!* Service: Wilson is always there, and he and his employees are always super friendly and attentive. Ambiance: The restaurant itself is a little hole in the wall, and oh boy, does the revenue that is not spent on a bigger place go right back into the products. If you see the PF Changs next door, pull into the lot and make sure to say hi to Wilson! Have a lovely lunch, a delicious smoothie or boba, and grab yourself a fantastic quality little treat...for the road ;) Enjoy!

Simply put, Crema is the best coffee shop in middle Tennessee and we have to start having the…read moreconversation about whether it's the best coffee shop in country. I used to live in NYC and have been to the top rated coffee shops in at least LA, Dallas, Boston, Charlotte, NYC obviously, and Crema is better. I've now been to both locations. I don't even really like coffee that much (my wife does) and have loved every coffee I've ever had from here. My pet peeve is when places have a flavored drink and it doesn't taste like anything different than a normal coffee. Crema always has some unique flavors and they hit you right in the mouth with what they're supposed to taste like. The cherry on top is that it's actually a good value too. The prices are very competitive compared to similar craft coffee spots in the Nashville, Brentwood, Franklin corridor.

Every time I've stopped in here, the place has been in the middle of the morning coffee rush, and yet I've always received my drink and food quickly.

Open 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Sunday through Friday, with extended hours to 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday, they offer a massive eating space, a large outdoor patio, even a double decker basketball court and a foosball table! The grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough made on site with gooey provolone, cheddar, and swiss, is quite tasty! Their baked goods are delicious, including a scrumptious cinnamon roll when it's not sold out, and their extensive selection of hot and cold drinks is impressive for this secluded coffee shop! Combo meals also allow the addition of a soup or Block & Barrel chips, a deliciously flavorful brand out of Texas. I guess the 5,000 church members provide sufficient patronage to keep business booming, but anyone is welcome to dine here and you can relax unbothered for hours. Sunday until 12:30 p.m. is pretty busy, as is Tuesday night, but the rest of the time it's a pretty quiet spot! The church does have free wifi, but it's a bit slower than most.

We waited…read moreabout 30 minutes for 2 lattes and a breakfast sandwich, which felt quite long for a drive-thru. Our order was for 1/2 sweet lattes (correctly written on the cups), but both came out much sweeter than requested--my husband's was so sweet he couldn't drink it. The breakfast sandwich, which was around $4, seemed heavily microwaved and was very hard around the edges, making it difficult to eat. While waiting at the front, we could hear the baristas chatting and laughing quite a bit. It gave the impression that there wasn't much urgency, even though several cars were waiting in line. We really do love what this business stands for and genuinely want to support local places like this. However, based on this experience, the long wait time, lack of order accuracy, and food quality makes it difficult for us to justify returning. :(
