    Intrigued by the exterior, I stopped at Franklin's for breakfast. The interior is quite pleasant with limited seating. I thought the coffee was just ok; I ordered a flat white. However my croissant sandwich was really good! Not sure if I would return if I were in the area, if not just for the food.

    We went to Franklin's on our last day of our Savannah food crawl to start the morning. The place is very pretty - the shop front gives New York city vibes. Inside was aesthetic too. I loved the vibe here. We ordered the Lox n Bagel, the B.L.T., iced vanilla latte, and horchata latte. We wanted the matcha but they were out (it was 8am). The lox n bagel was alright. The cream cheese was the best part about it - garlicky flavor and aroma. I don't like capers so I took those off. The salmon was ok, tasted fishy. Maybe the quality of the fish wasn't the best. The bagel was a regular plain bagel. Nothing really special about this. Felt like it needed shrimp sauce with the salmon because of its fishy taste. 6/10 The B.L.T. was good according to my girlfriend. I don't like veggies, but she took it off for me and I'd say that the sandwich was really good. I enjoyed the smokey flavor of the bacon and how thick it was. 7/10 The coffees were nothing special. Their horchata latte wasn't anything different from regular coffee. Tasted like coffee you can brew in a standard coffee machine and finished with CoffeeMate creamer. 6/10 The service was fast and the staff were nice. Nothing too much here 10/10.

    Avocado toast with bacon

    Got a matcha latte with cold foam. It is very sweet, so I love it! Not a bitter matcha at all. But I wouldn't get it if you don't like the sweet Matcha. I added a shot of raspberry in it. The service was great and the ambulance is super cute inside. Would definitely check it out if you're in Savannah. Bathrooms are cool in the back and have a hidden door.

    So impressed with this coffee shop and there are a few around the area. They have some seating both indoor and outdoor but luckily snagged two seats after ordering. I got the cappuccino and an almond croissant. My husband ordered an americano and breakfast sandwich. They were super busy so it took a minute for our order to be ready - especially food. The almond croissant was nice and flaky and I asked for it warm. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his sandwich though was quite messy. Their service was great! One of the employees (don't know his name but he was a tall African American male) was so kind and constantly checked in on us. I highly highly recommend this place!

    Iced latte at the window seats.

    Charming little coffee place with friendly service and delicious iced lattes. On a hot day, nothing better than to pop in here for a cold drink. Cute seats outdoors too, and the main window looks out over the street and a pretty church spire.

    What a great find for some of the best espresso I've had in the south! Frozen latte with simple ingredients; milk, espresso, ice and sweetener or flavoring. Delish! And the fresh pastries are like right out of a Parisian oven!

    Super cute coffee shop. Great coffee! Definitely stop by here if you are in Savannah!

    What a beautiful little cafe. My daughter and I stopped in for a quick bite (she wanted a pain au chocolat something fierce). We sat at the window as she ate and enjoyed chatting and people watching. She loved the croissant. The staff was also very friendly.

    We thought this place was okay. Nice staff; a bit more style than substance in the food though. Had a small London fog, large cafe au lait, a ham and cheese quiche which was the standout, and an okay lox and everything bagel. Set us back about $40 for two people. It was the bagel cream cheese and raw red onions with plain lox that disappointed us. Capers or even a few pickled onions would have helped. Not worth the cost. The warmed ham and cheese quiche with side salad however was lovely and perfect on this cold 40 degree morning with a sweet London fog.

    I love their coffee but they have incorrect hours of operation online, making it difficult to know when to show up.

    Nice staff. Tasty "Summer Lovin" vodka cocktail. Croissant needs improvement. Outdoor seating is reminiscent of a Paris cafe.

    I wanted to love Gallery Espresso. The location is perfect and the sidewalk seating is very cute…read more There are a lot of pros and cons with this one. Pros - The honey biscuit was SO good. Major points for serving actual iced coffee instead of cold brew. The iced coffee was incredible. Very strong. I normally drink red eyes and half a cup of this stuff will have you ready to run the city. Lots of teas if you're a tea drinker. Cons - The inside is giving what can best be described as hipster cat lady energy. It just felt a little dirty and chaotic. Some people probably find it 'eclectic". Skip the bagels. They weren't...awful... but coming from the Northeast, we're probably impossible to impress in the bagel department.

    Alright, fellow Yelpers, here are my thoughts on Gallery Espresso…read more I'll be honest, this is one of the harder coffee shop reviews for me to write because I'm a little torn. Do I think Gallery Espresso has the absolute best coffee in Savannah? No. Do I think it has my favorite atmosphere in Savannah? Also no. Personally, I tend to gravitate toward coffee shops with a slightly more modern feel, while Gallery Espresso leans more toward a classic, eclectic, and somewhat antique-inspired vibe. That said, I think judging a coffee shop solely on where it ranks in one category misses the point. If you're looking for a place to spend an entire afternoon working, reading, studying, meeting a friend, or simply relaxing, Gallery Espresso is one of the most reliable spots in Savannah. It has plenty of seating, mostly dependable Wi-Fi (though full transparency, it can occasionally get a little spotty), air conditioning, good food, solid drinks, and a comfortable environment where nobody seems to mind if you settle in for a few hours and get things done. In fact, despite there being a few coffee shops in Savannah that I would rank higher in specific categories, Gallery Espresso is probably the coffee shop I visit more than any other in the city. Why? Consistency. Every time I walk in, I know exactly what I'm getting. The service is dependable, the environment is comfortable, and it's simply an easy place to be productive. I'm personally a fan of their chai tea lattes, and their bagels are always a solid choice. You really can't go wrong stopping in here whether you're a local looking for a regular workspace or a visitor needing a comfortable place to recharge. I tend to be pretty critical in my reviews, so if anyone from Gallery Espresso happens to read this, I promise this isn't a criticism. There are a few places in Savannah that I think do certain things better. Some have more memorable coffee. Some have a more unique atmosphere. But very few places deliver the level of consistency that Gallery Espresso does day after day, and that's exactly why I find myself returning more often than almost anywhere else. For me, that's worth 4 out of 5 stars. I'm giving it four stars because while there are a few places in Savannah that I think function better as dedicated coffee shops, Gallery Espresso does an excellent job balancing good coffee with comfortable seating, food options, a productive atmosphere, and the ability to spend hours there without feeling rushed. When you take all of those factors together, it's one of the strongest all-around coffee shop experiences in the city. And sometimes, that's exactly what makes a great coffee shop.

    I have been wanting to take my family to this restaurant for a long time coming. Collins quarter…read morewas highly recommended to me across various friends. I got their chicken sandwich, while the rest of my family got the Dubai chocolate French toast, Bubble and squeak. My grilled chicken sandwich had a vast majority of flavors varying in the sandwich. The chicken was my only set back, it came off as under seasoned and bland, while the white bread and cheese melted together with the fresh lettuce. I also got their iced matcha latte with lavender syrup, which I was heavily surprised from how flavorful and sugary it was, I highly recommend this drink to any matcha lovers out there. The Dubai chocolate French toast was beautifully put together and delicious, shared across my family. From what I heard the bubble and squeak was amazing and was not too heavy or dull in flavor and is a great vegetarian option. Overall, the atmosphere inside was very light and put together, the creme walls contrasted perfectly with the historic stone walls. If you or your family are visiting savannah Georgia, I highly recommend Collins Quarter!

    This was hands down the best brunch I have had this year. First, hats off to whoever invented the…read morespiced lavender mocha - you deserve an award. That drink is a masterpiece and lives rent free in my head. I still regret not going back for another one while in Savannah. As a french toast lover who also happens to love pistachios and chocolate, I obviously got the Dubai Chocolate French Toast. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the french toast, it was the perfect portion to split between two people without being overwhelmingly sweet. I hate when these things are humongous in size and then you can't finish it and end up wasting most of it away. The best part was Doki Doki' Pistachio-Crusted Pistachio Gelato on top - phenomenal! We also got the Moroccan Scramble as the savory counterpart to the french toast. The moroccan-spiced minced-lamb combined with scrambled eggs and toasted chickpea was so flavorful and satisfying. After this meal, I don't believe I could ever pass through Savannah without making a trip to the Collins Q! P.S.: Please come to Philly!
