It's cute, clean and welcoming. The grilled cheese and thickly-sized ham sandwich was great! The potato salad was delicious. The grilled chicken was much too salty but very moist. So, simple fix. I scraped the spicy, salty rub off and enjoyed a great dinner. read more

Such a nice little diner to stop in instead of giving your money to Chick-fil-a while on the road. We both had the cheeseburger (I had bacon) with watermelon. Our check was $23 including a hefty tip, and it was downright delicious. Burger and fixings were fresh with the best melty cheese. The staff were incredibly nice and the place is clean and homey with a 99 health rating. We saw this joint in Our State magazine, and it is most definitely worth a stop. TIP: They give you a discount for paying with cash. read more

A hidden gem!!!! We were glamping in the area and went into Franklinville for the day. This diner popped up while looking for lunch. We usually like to go to mom and pop places vs chains. This place pleasantly surprised us!! Wonderful food, the burger was out of this world. The young gals working were on top of everything and very delightful. Appreciate the refills and the to go cups. Already looking forward to coming back! read more

Love this quaint diner. I've eaten here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (not all in the same day), and have always had good service. They are always busy but they are kind and know their usual customers. I love that they support their local youth sports teams. The grilled ham and cheese was the perfect meal for a cold day. My youngest got their chicken tenders and fruit, which happened to be peaches. We're finally at the stage where the kids are old enough to sit on the swivel seats at the counter, which brings even more enjoyment to the meal. The interior is cozy and a mixture of booths, tables, in addition to the counter area that surrounds the open kitchen. Everything I have had here has been great. Regardless of when you come, expect to enjoy your meal and the company you're with. read more

This is definitely what I call, a country diner. The building has been there for many many decades, interior is dated but neat. Could us some renovation and still keep it's old town flair. It looked clean and loved. Had the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and collared greens. Hubby had cheese burger and salad. The meals were simple and okay. Nothing exciting about flavor or presentation. The staff was extremely friendly and our meal was quickly presented. We sat down around 12 noon and I will say that place filled up quick! It must be a town favorite or closest destination from work. What did impressed me was their score card & workstation system. Those cooks were hoppin, movin & groovin to get those meals out and it looked seamless. I wouldn't make a trip out here for dining but it served its purpose. Hot decent meal for a great price. Just not my cup of tea. read more

Great diner in a small town. Food was great, service was spot on and the price can't be beat. The homemade vegetable beef soup was amazing.

It was our first time going and we loved it! All of our food was good and the service was very attentive even with it being packed in there. Their sanitation was 99 back in August and the inside is your typical diner atmosphere but very nicely designed to show the town of Franklinville! read more

This is a nice place to eat . Country charm with a very good menu . Food is good with hand patties burgers .

I love this diner nestled in a cute area in Franklinville! It's like the TV show Cheers but for food instead of beer. You walk in and instantly are greeted by familiar patrons and friendly staff. The choices of meals are typical but delicious diner meals and all are good The diner is small with cozy booths, bar top, and table seatings available. All the meals my husband and I have had there have been good. It is our "go to" place for a good home cooked meal. read more

Franklinville Diner - the american flag hanging on the wall - Diners Near Me - Franklinville, North Carolina

Frankinville diner is the embodiment of small town hospitality. We have been several times and have loved every lunch. They have a rotating specials menu and from that we've tried the chicken and dumplings and the barbecue. The shredded pork barbecue was some of the best I've ever had. So so tasty! I've personally tried the classic cheeseburger with a side of potato salad and the burger was perfection! No frills, just a classic done right! I've also had the chicken salad sandwich and loved it! Apparently the hot dogs are great too! My sister said it was "amazing!" Now for the service. It's perfect. There is no possible way for them improve upon it. You're greeted, treated like a regular, and checked on consistently. I'm so thankful we discovered this gem and can't wait to go back! A few notes: You sit at an available table. It gets busy at lunch!! There is some bar seating for individuals. You pay at the cash register when you're all done with your meal. They have some delicious cookies, pies and cakes for dessert or to take with you for later. The chocolate chip cookies, that I tried, were homemade and so yummy! There is a history of Franklinville that spans the entire wall of the restaurant. So sweet and I can't wait to go back! read more

We have been wanting to go ever since they were featured in the Our State magazine. Thankfully we finally were able to pull off out first visit. (and there will be many more visits in the future) This place was hopping busy but there was one table available. Halen was our waitress and promptly took our drink orders. We were there about 1045 am and lunch starts at 11 so it was just in time to get lunch items as well. I had my mind set on the Pimento cheese burger and floppy chips for my side. My Beautiful Bride got a Bacon Cheeseburger with her favorite toppings and onion rings. Our guests with us got Breakfast plates since breakfast is served till 11. Drinks were promptly delivered and the waitstaff was amazing. Very attentive to customers needs. I was amazed watching them keep drinks filled, orders taken, food delivered and cleaning tables. As soon as people got up to leave they were bussing the tables quickly to accommodate the people waiting at the door for seating. These ladies were constantly on the move while we were there. Halen told us they were even busier earlier as some people waited 45 minutes for a seat. When our food arrived, I quickly found out why people stand in line 45 minutes for a table. My goodness, what a meal! The burgers were cooked perfectly. The floppy chips were spot on. A great mix of some crispy and some floppy. The onion rings were hot and crisp too. See pictures of our meal below. The breakfast plates also were cooked properly and were outstanding!! We missed out on the Pound Cake though. They sell out daily on that. It's a huge slice of pound cake cooked to a golden brown on the flattop grill. So, we will be going back soon and earlier in the morning to get some of this awesome dessert. Be sure to browse the old pictures on the walls of Franklinville. Lots of historical facts about this once booming town. According to Our State magazine this is a family owned and family run business. If your within 50 miles of Franklinville NC, it's worth the drive. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Franklinville Diner for an awesome first visit. read more

Both the menu and front window boast that the Franklinville Diner has the "best food in town". I should think so, since it appears to be the ONLY restaurant in town. Fortunately, their claim is legitimate, because they do serve a very good lunch that would indeed be "best food in town" in a lot of places. The dog (Nathan's) had a great taste and was served with homemade slaw and chili, both of which were delicious. The burger also had a lot of great flavor and was appropriately sized. Crinkle fries were perfect. My only complaint is that after I walked in, I stood there awkwardly for several minutes waiting for a staff member to acknowledge me and tell me where to sit. No one did. Finally a "regular" got my attention, and told me to sit anywhere. The bullet hole in the window next to my seat made me pensive about the seamier side of Franklinville, but it's cool. Soy de Miami. read more

Best place for breakfast and lunch!! And supper on Thursday and Fridays! Great food, tea, and employees!

Yummy home cooking. Great customer service and community gathering place. Old time feel.

Food was great and not over priced. Service was great, food came out quickly and staff was very friendly.

Food is delicious and the staff is very friendly! I will definitely be going back again soon!

Stopped here on the way from Raleigh to Charlotte. Everything you want a small town diner to be...friendly smiles from staff and customers that seem to have known everyone all their lives. The food was great - cooked like your momma would at home - maybe better. It's a few minutes off the main highway - but the road routes you right back so you don't lose any time. Be sure to plan and stop by when driving through. read more

The pimento cheese sandwich on wheat contained crispy strips of bacon, not my thing but my kids would love it. The pickle chips inside added a crunchy zip to a satisfying meal. The side salad was a fresh and inexpensive addition to the included fries. Good iced tea. read more

We made a small detour from Ramseur to the Franklinville Diner. What a fabulous place! Happy, fun, bright and clean! The owners are a young family and they make great food! I had the diner burger with chili slaw and onions and it was delicious. My husband had the classic burger with lettuce tomato toppings and loved it! Onion rings and french fries were fresh and delicious! This used to be the Franklinville Restaurant, but it's been purchased and transformed into the Franklinville Restaurant. Make a trip to visit! read more

I've known about this place for years but had never stopped in until a couple of months ago. Now I'm sorry that I didn't stop sooner! They have daily specials (the Chicken Casserole is great!) as well as a full grill menu. The hot dogs are some of the best I've ever had and the hamburgers are really good as well. Try the Jalapeno Burger! It's not too hot and has great pepper flavor. The onion rings are to die for! Homemade cinnamon buns on Fridays and Saturdays! Due to the current "lockdown" they are only open for take out orders but they do a great job with them. Andrea and the whole crew are wonderful! read more

First time coming to this little place and it was great. It's definitely a small town diner but don't let that fool you - the food is delicious and the staff is super friendly. I got the Franklinville Burger which has ham, cheese, and bacon - man was it good. Also if you choose the hot chips instead of fries they are actual little waffle cut chips (not the typical hot chips at most chain restaurants). I could have eaten all the food at our table - the burgers are that good. read more

Friendly staff and yummy food. I worked in Ramseur and passed the Ramseur diner because the Franklinville diner is so much better.

Ate here for the first time. What a jewel. Food was fantastic and the price was beyond cheap. Friendly service and atmosphere. Highly recommend. read more

The hamburger here is hand formed from quality beef, and is simply outstanding. The bun is toasted, as is the one for the hot dog. The chili is meaty, mild in flavor, and liberally applied - all-in-all a very good dog, as well. The fries are the rectangular, ridged kind, but here they got them crisp enough to be pretty good. Service was also excellent. Haven't tried any of the daily specials yet, but I will. Go here for the great hamburger, you will not regret it. read more

I was at Randolph Community College for a Fire College this past weekend. When lunch time came, I found this diner. The staff members were extremely friendly. I ordered a cheeseburger with everything except onions and seasoned fries. The bun was toasted to perfection, the beef was juicy and the fries had a fabulous seasoning. The owner came over to my table and actually took the time to tell me about the diner. The service was fast and spot on. Then I found the homemade cinnamon buns. That is an absolute must..... I will definitely be back. read more
