Frothy Monkey is probably one of if not my absolute favorite coffeeshops in Nashville. Typically diametrically-opposed to chains, Frothy Monkey makes the cut because their multiple locations are all local with the exception of the Chattanooga location. They're gracious enough to give all their monkeys an opportunity to recharge no matter where we are in town! I particularly love the Franklin location, as there's plenty of room in a quaint and charming old home turned two-story cafe. Their menu is extensive, all the food is good, and it's a great value. I often find myself wondering if I got what I paid for, yet feeling more than stuffed when I leave. They go a step beyond most coffeeshops by capitalizing on our resources here in Nashville, offering tea from High Garden, East Nashville-based purveyor of the best teas on the planet. There's nothing better than breakfast on the wrap-around covered porch on a rainy morning. Great place to go and do homework, or get some reading done. read more

Just over all disappointed in the place. I wouldn't suggest the CA since they forgot my avocado and greens. It's also hard to eat cause the bread is hard. Def just come here for the coffee and not the food. read more

If you're looking for great coffee and great food, this is the place to go! I love the beautiful porch and always hope it's cool enough to sit there when I go. Their Turtle Latte is where it's at! You can't go wrong with any of their food and the location is right around the corner from some cute shops in Franklin. read more

This was a favorite of ours to top off the evening with a coffee and baked good. STAFF IS ALWAYS WONDERFUL! But unfortunately they are no longer a "coffee house" but just a plain ol restaurant. If you aren't getting the coffee to-go then you must be waited on. I can't justify taking a server's table when I just want a $3 cup of coffee. And it's not about paying tip because I always tip the barista. I don't need to be babysat over my cup of coffee or have the feeling that I need to finish up and move on. Unfortunately Franklin lacks in late evening coffee houses, and this place is added to the list of once-was. I hear there's a "coffee house" in Thompson Station called "1819 Coffee" that is open until 8pm (10pm would be perfect)... I plan to make the drive to them soon! read more

Have always enjoyed frothy monkey but was a little frustrated today. I walked in at 3:03 and there were other gals in front of me in line. When I got to the front I asked the worker about a drink and she answered me nicely, then what seemed like a manager came up and said we actually have new hours and just closed at 3. Having worked in customer service, proper thing to say would be we'd be happy to take your order but please know our hours have changed for future reference. After all the doors weren't locked, plenty of patrons indoors and out. And it was 2 min past.... frustrating after paying for parking. read more

Frothy Monkey is hands down one of my favorite breakfast spots ever! Any time I have out of town guests, this is a go-to! They are normally packed on the weekends, so I'd suggest your first time going maybe be during the week. The restaurant is set in a historic two story house, which I love the atmosphere of. I always sit upstairs when I go, because it's less loud from the ordering counter and door traffic. Service is always good unless they are slammed, the food takes longer to come out which is totally understandable. read more

There is absolutely no service anymore. There service has gone down immensely. Food is still good, but getting the order right or on time is yet to be seen. read more

Food is good, the place is cute, fun feel to it. The whole family likes it. The bellinis are nice for a brunch treat.

My second visit here and not going back. My second trip was as bad as the first one. Both hostesses were rude. I had to ask the staff twice why my food was taking so long. They could have cared less. Im thinking that management doesn't realize that Starbucks that is a short distance away and that is where I will take my business from now on! read more

Lovely little café in Franklin. Great selection of sandwiches, entrees, coffee and drinks. I have been to many great restaurants but with bad service. Frothy Monkey has exceptionally great service. I inadvertently ordered a sandwich that had meat on it. I asked if I could get a different one while I would pay for both sandwiches since it was my mistake. But the waiter was generous enough to replace it with a different one for no additional cost. Gestures like these go a long away. In fact, so long that I signed up for Yelp just to post this review. If you're ever in the vicinity, try this cute little, super pet-frienddly place and I'm sure you would leave with sumptuous food in your belly and a top notch service. read more

They had delicious sangria and grilled cheese! It's a cute spot with a big diverse menu. The outdoor porch is really nice. I would recommend! read more

The Frothy Monkey, what an excellent name. This is definitely one of the major spots everyone needs to visit when going to downtown Franklin. The location is great, the atmosphere is even better. I've never had their food, but I've been here many times to enjoy their coffee. We have family from Seattle who are hardcore Starbuck fanatics and they even said their coffee here is better. Cant wait go come back! read more

The customer service was great, the girl taking my order was nice and helpful. She answered all of my questions without being condescending like some others that work at local coffee shops. I went in there just to get some iced coffee but saw a special written on the board called a coconut cream, it was so good! I got it iced and it was just the right amount of sweet. Unfortunately, I had just eaten lunch bc everything I saw come out of the kitchen looked so good! I'll definitely be back to try some pastries read more

First visit to the Frothy a monkey and the service was absolutely wonderful! The food was delicious definitely hit the spot. If you visit ask for Giovanna she was just so delightful and you can tell she loves her job, and today that is such a blessing. read more

This place was great! I went here with a couple of friends on a Sunday morning. I had no issue with parking or the service. We even got a table outside. I got the Julie bagel sandwich with bacon on it and a side of potatoes as well as a cafe au lait. The best deal was definitely the side of potatoes which was a large portion for only 2 dollars, but both the coffee and sandwich was reasonably priced. My friends also enjoyed what they got as well! The atmosphere was great and I will definitely be back! read more

Frothy Monkey - Julie Bagel Sandwich with Bacon and a side of Potatoes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

This place is fun, relaxed, and just a great place to meet up with friends or family to enjoy a good drink and a good meal. We have been for breakfast and an early lunch and were pleased on both occasions. We did have an evening we went in for just a quick drink before a dinner reservation down the street and unfortunately our drinks didn't show up after about 10 minutes and we had to run. Luckily, the staff was very apologetic, and the gave us a gift card for our drinks for another time. They were attempting to give us a refund on the card but in the time crunch, they could whip up a gift card far quicker. We will definitely be frequenting this location :) read more

I love Frothy. This place is the bomb diggity, whether you're in downtown Franklin or 12th Ave South. I get the Royale sandwich. Now I'm hungry. Thanks. read more

This place is all hype. Coffee is mediocre and the staff seem to like to gossip and chat other than do their jobs. The dishes sometimes are dirty and the food, despite being expensive, is bland and presented in a very amateur way. Honestly you're better off just going to Panera. Same style etc. Not recommended. read more

Have only been for breakfast but their architect omelets with Bentons bacon are my favorite weekend treat. I also love their coffee. Frothy also has a great atmosphere that I love to come and spend my weekend mornings. I have had both the special lattes and plain coffee is also delicious. The reason for the fifth star however is their baked goods. Everything I have had is beyond delicious. Even the day olds are a step above every one else's fresh. Their chocolate chip cookies are my favorite, ever. So good and thick. I love the local art on the walls. read more

All your hipster favs...lattes...dairy free, teas, even Kom but has including a draft mint that is amazing. read more

This is a great place to go if you need some Wi-Fi and a cup of coffee. I wouldn't say the food is the greatest but it's a cool environment and very nice people working there. read more

We had coffee on a Saturday afternoon and it was delicious. Service was a little chaotic but the coffee was worth it. After several disappointing meals in Franklin and Nashville, we were looking for a delicious meal to begin our road trip home. While the initial greeting was a little cold, we were seated in less than 20 minutes. Our server was amazing. So helpful and knowledgeable. My husband had the California and I had the Julie. The hummingbird latte is unique and delicious. Our dining experiences in Franklin were redeemed with our meal at Frothy Monkey. read more

we had a delicious breakfast here and then attended a wonderful evening i December upstairs with a classical group. What a wonderful evening with these amazing musicians and food staffers. We cannot to return!! read more

Less than two miles from my house. It's my collage daughters favorite to hang, study and socialize. Coffee is OK. I prefer a cold beer late in the afternoon. Lots of different seating options. Friendly outdoor porch seating. Booths downstairs and good seating upstairs. They even have a long table that can be used for meetings. read more

The Frothy Monkey has quickly become our favorite coffee shop in Franklin. I read the other reviews and for some it may depend on what they want and what they like. We love going most times of the day and finding a table. They have tons of tables. The best kept secret is the upstairs. They have inside and outside tables and the location is close to downtown. They feature the art of local folks on the wall. The staff is very friendly. The food and coffee are good. We went in for a beer last week. Their spirits collection is not large, but it was fine and we enjoyed the space and being there in the evening too. It is a comfortable place and we enjoy being in the spacious atmosphere with friendly people. I am looking forward to enjoying the outside now that Spring has sprung! read more

MILF central!!! Ooo and the food is bomb, def a hip spot in a small town! Had a pastrami sandwich with basil mayo and melted cheese. Was able to sit on the porch and people watch. Could have had a better side than chips but that was my mistake. read more

Frothy Monkey - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

I wish they had coffee shops like this in my hometown. Came here around dinner time and got a salmon sandwich and a rosemary honey latte. Both were great. The salmon sandwich was unexpectedly amazing! I honestly just ordered it cuz I was in the mood for something healthy - and I was fully expecting it to be pretty gross and tasteless like most other healthy sounding food. But it was sooo good. They literally cook a whole salmon filet(!!!) and put it in your sandwich. It's awesome. Salmon was seared really nice and brown, seasoned well, and pretty moist. It was a great sandwich. Overall the ambience and service here is just very inviting and nice to be around. I don't drink coffee too much, but I can imagine if I lived in Nashville I'd be spending a lot of time hanging out here. The people who work here are all very friendly and do a great job of making you feel welcomed. Come here and get a salmon sandwich! read more

Fresh food, fast service and amazing coffee. Sometimes there is a wait but either way, we end up with a table and food in a timely manner. The architect is awesome; big enough to split. Their toast and jam is amazing! My kids love the pancakes and yogurt. Get the white monkey mocha!! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE FROTHY! I bring friends here ALL the time. Awesome ambiance and a great stop for coffee!

Coffee - good enough. Service -- good enough. Worst WiFi ever. The porch is the best asset. Meh. I'll go back to Meridee's for better baked goods and better WiFi. read more

Cool place. Coffee was good, but took longer than one would expect. Our conversations were good, but would have been better with a cup of coffee in our hands. Once we gently reminded them of our order, they delivered in about 15 minutes. The macchiatos were luke warm so we consumed them quickly and were on our way. read more

Wonderful coffee! We opened the place on a Saturday morning. Food seems to be locally sourced as much as possible, and is well prepared. I had the California, with a side of bacon. The sourdough bread is very worthwhile. Eggs done nicely. My wife had the Cheesy Grits Bowl, which is an interesting combination, with feta, prosciutto, and arugula which works well together. The staff was very friendly with us. I would recommend this to anyone. read more

An excellent brunch spot on a Sunday. Place was recommended by an author I follow on Twitter, and she did not steer me wrong. The loaded biscuits and gravy were very good. Plenty of space and tables, but busy and bustling too. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! The atmosphere, coffee, food, and drinks!! All around amazing!! I go here for a quick bite to eat while I study or it is a good place hang out with friends/family! Can't beat the combination of it all in Franklin! read more

If you like coffee, they've got it. Excellent presentation with visuals. Jitters be damned.

This place is fantastic. Jackson, our server, treated us very well and the food was top notch. The decor is cool but not pretentious. I had my first hot toddy there and they set a high watermark for the next time I enjoy the drink. read more

The Frothy Monkey was one of our first stops when we arrived into town. What we didn't know then was that it would become our favorite breakfast and lunch stop. The coffee is always great but I highly recommend the "Randy Melt". You will not be disappointed. Even if you are just passing through Franklin, the Frothy Monkey is worth the visit. read more
