Great service. Great pizza and a wide variety of bourbon. Great atmosphere and the bartender Hanna is awesome and gorgeous to boot.

I happened to be walking by this establishment and noticed a happy hour menu hanging in the window, it said one dollar off glasses of wine. So I thought I'll go in and have a glass of wine. I did and ordered some baked chicken wings when I asked the waitress about the happy hour she said oh sorry that was a mistake we were supposed to take that down. I asked to speak with the manager, the manager said the same thing. It is not about the price because it is only one dollar off a glass of wine, it is about the principal and that the so-called reputable establishment just ignored what I was trying to explain and just said oops sorry will take that sign down soon. They still haven't taken it down. Isn't that false advertising? read more

Love this place. It is always busy but it is worth it because the pizza is awesome. Great time all around with good service and great food. Our goto when we need a good pizza. read more

We all enjoyed it. The pepperonis were crispy without being oily. Nice sauce to cheese ratio. Thick pizza but not doughy. Crush was crunchy. Drinks were great. The waiter didn't give my friend his number but he said he was already in a relationship so I appreciate his loyalty. read more

This is the worst mellow mushroom I have ever been to. After an hour wait, we asked about our appetizer that was ordered when we got there. It hadn't ever been put in. After and hour and 30 minutes, we asked where the pizza was. The manager came over and offered a lackluster excuse about how they burnt a pizza at 4:30pm- it was currently 900pm. Fuck that guy, there was no apology or compensation... just a condescending explanation of why their pizza takes longer than the rest. An hour and a half later, the manger said "don't worry we're not charging you for the pizza we never put in the oven." read more

COVID-19 UPDATE Our family has committed to stepping out from the confines of our TP fort to accept a delivery order from a local restaurant each week during the 2020 pandemic. We chose Mellow Mushroom last Friday and used Delivery Dudes to drop it at the front door for a contactless delivery. We are following the recommended guidelines for handling food deliveries without difficulty. We removed the pizzas and disposed of the boxes while placing the pies in a preheated oven at 300 degrees. After just a few minutes to get the cheese bubbling, we removed the pizzas and enjoyed dinner without a shred of concern for food safety. Delivery Dudes is fast and efficient and Mellow Mushroom continues to turn out great pizza in the midst of this global tragedy. I am grateful to both for their services! Be well, be careful and be excellent to each other! read more

Great pizza and extremely refreshing drinks! The wait can be long but you know what you're in for in Franklin. The staff is very nice, restaurant is very clean. I love the imaginative pizzas and they taste even better. Spinach dip was outstanding too. Our friends got the mushroom soup and said it was excellent. We were all very happy with our meal. read more

Had a great experience asking Mellow Mushroom to cater our son's wedding rehearsal dinner. We had to figure it out by remote from California and the management was very helpful figuring out a menu and arranging for delivery to a local park. All the pizzas were fantastic and arrived in great shape with all the condiments and utensils. We couldn't have asked for better food or service. read more

If you have kids, do not go and dine in. Hour and 30 minutes for a wait time once we had ordered. The restaurant prioritizes to go orders over dine in customers. read more

Stopped in the downtown franklin location for lunch. We enjoyed our lunch but a few items stopped us from giving this 5 stars. 1) they had the AC on full blast and they refused to slow it down or consider customers concerns - even our server stated it is always so cold. 2) had the mushroom soup - very good but was served Luke warm at best. Also had a side Caesar salad - it was excellent! 3) had the berry sangria - excellent 4) of course had one of their signature pizzas... it was good - but again with the AC vent blowing directly down on it - after initial slice - the rest of the pizza was cold. So - good food - just wished they were more responsive to their customers and staffs concerns - would have been a 5 star. It was that cold - Brrrr.... read more

Horrible service...waited over an hour in a pretty empty restaurant for 1 pizza. Server never came to check on us while we were waiting or let us know how much longer it would be. Pizza was okay but wont be back due to the service. read more

The pizza here is mouthwatering and so delicious!! Spinach and artichoke dip with garlic toasts was tasty. There is something so special about the pizza -- the crust, sauce and cheese are over the top. Strongly recommend! read more

Really good pizza, just on the pricey side. Loved all the different flavors and combos they come up with, along with the funny names. Great beer selection, and fun atmosphere. read more

Good service, good food, and a perfect day to sit outside. Jane was a great! We will definitely go back.

Nice folks in great pizza! I love a thin crust pizza and Mellow Mushroom's is super crispy and delicious. Good vibes and delicious pizza. Win win! read more

Food here is a family favorite. After a minor hiccup, their manager's Kelsey and Kevin took care of making things right. We'll be back for more! A friendly suggestion: the takeout system seemed overwhelmed and maybe you could cap orders to keep everyone happy. It's definitely not the servers/cooks fault and they end up dealing with the brunt of it. read more

Mellow Mushroom is amazing! We came into Franklin just looking to grab a beer and found a great spot at the bar here. Service was top notice! Fast! And Accommodating! We were treated like family by the General Manager Kathy, and appreciated the welcoming arms. Thank you for the great experience!! read more

Mellow Mushroom Franklin - Pizza Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Absolute slowest service I have ever experience and they got our order wrong. We sat down and immediately ordered just an easy appetizer and it didn't come until we had our check. We saw the same type come out of the kitchen and walk by us and yet we never received it. read more

Coolest pizza place ever. We've been looking at homes this whole trip and a realtor in Nolensville told us to check this place out. Soooooo glad we did. Not only is it a mellow reto mushroomy vibe, it's really good pizza along with fast, friendly service. Skyler was an awesome host and helped us with great recommendations. We ordered a kids meal, pizza and Greek salad. Everything was perfect expect there was a little too many peppercinis in the salad. But Sklyer took care of everything plus he gave us a military discount. How sweet is that? I'd just say review the menu items and just make sure you can handle them all. I have a sensitive stomach but would have devoured the salad otherwise. The dressing was heavenly. Thank you for your great food and even better people. We will be back. read more

I've been enjoying their pizza for years - told they had great burgers ( my Mom also tried had a burger) so we tried the burgers - made us so sick ! !!!!! The spices in the meat didn't taste appropriate for burgers - even maybe too much spice ?! I only ate 1/2 bc it was just not good but I was hungry ! Beware or burgers! read more

I was really expecting a much better pizza for the money. We shot the works and ordered their premium, supposedly loaded large pizza called the House Special. It was decent but for $27 we got more dough than topping. Taste = 3, value =2. Probably wouldn't order from here again unless I had a significant discount. I don't mind paying extra for a great pizza - this wasn't one of them. They've got a decent crust - if they'd work on the toppings, this place would have an unbeatable product! read more

The pizza here is simply amazing. The sauce, cheese and yes the dough is out of this world good. Love the atmosphere as well. Cool unique decor. The staff are always friendly. It's my go to pizza place while in the area. read more

Greek salad and pizza were both very good and we had good service as well. Defiantly recommend! Lots of kids and family friendly but also good sized bar area. read more

Ordered a pizza at the bar and was told it would be about 30 minutes. Over an hour later no one seemed to know when I'd get my pizza. After the bartender sent the manager over to speak with me, I left without a pizza. All you do is make pizza, how can it take this long and you still couldn't tell me when I would get my pizza. read more

We have eaten here for the last 20 years, has always been our favorite pizza.we even seek them out when we travel. We went yesterday (Sat) early afternoon and it was the usual since the Pandemic hit, lots of empty tables but a 30 min wait. Echave come to expect this over the last 4 years, they are always short staffed and can seat all tables. This time though our meal was not the norm. Our salad had little lettuce and that was already showing signs of aging. There was plenty of the filler items but the cucumbers were not edible. Then came our pizza. It was baked about half way, Luke warm, and the crust (usually awesome) wasn't edible as it wasnt baked enough, wet and gooey. We ate a slice each with the intent of bringing the rest home for another meal after we finished baking it. The server was friendly but I asked to speak to the manager. I told her how dissappointed we were with todays meal and explained what the issues were. She stood there with her best grin on her face and thanked me for my opinions. Don't know that we will go back to this location. I know they don't care that we won't be back, it is very apparent that they just don't care anymore. read more

We live close to Mellow Mushroom in Franklin. It is a great place for gathering and they have live music often in nice weather months. We love their once a month Beatles cover band! The service is almost always great, when we get takeout, they always double check our order to be sure it's right, when it's not, they make it right before we go. I eat gluten free and their gf pizza is very good, however, occasionally (like last night) it is cold while the others in my party with "regular " pizza have a nice warm pie. read more

Food was good. Service was great. But really cold in the restaurant. Pizza crust was awesome.

The philosophers pie isn't on the menu, but it's steak, artichoke hearts, and some other amazing ingredients. Their dough is delicious and not tough. It's my favorite choice for a high end pizza. read more

Pizza was very good and they were generous with toppings ! Service good as well! Will definately go back

Pizza is amazing but often the service ruins the experience. We've either waited two hours for sit-down orders or received wrong orders for to-go. Also, when trying to call the restaurant for help, there seems to be no understanding of proper phone etiquette. Because of the location, they are often extremely busy and therefore do not seem to prioritize customer service. Whenever we feel like eating their food, we always ask ourselves if it's worth the hassle. Often times, it isn't. read more

This food is phenomenal! My family was pretty hungry when we came in on Mother's Day, so we ordered a few appetizers to tide us over while our pizza was being made. The garlic bread was delicious, made fresh with high quality bread, and the bruschetta is the best I've ever had. Each ingredient they used was of the utmost quality. I would have been satisfied leaving after the bruschetta, but the pizza we ordered was amazing. My family of 4 split a large pizza, half supreme, half pepperoni. I can't decide if it's the dough, cheese or sauce that sets this pizza on another level, but I think it's all three. To make it even better, they gave out flowers to all the moms that dined in the restaurant that day. It was a sweet personal touch that made our dining experience special. If you are looking for amazing pizza, and you're in the Franklin area, Mellow Mushroom is a great place to go! read more

Mellow Mushroom Franklin - Amazing bruschetta. I highly recommend trying this appetizer!!! - Pizza Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Three words: Mighty Meaty Pizza Are you kidding? I might have been a bit famished after my flight from LA, so that might sway my review a bit. But seriously, one of the best pizzas I've had. Loved all the toppings, but the crust was my favorite part - kind of like a garlic bread in itself. read more

This restaurant is a very cool place to eat. The service was great. It has a great family atmosphere and you get a lot of food for your money. The basil and tomato pizza we created was good. We also split a chicken and cheese calzone which I liked but the chicken seemed reheated. There is a free city parking garage next door so you don't have to worry about trying to find a spot on main street. read more

As far as chains go, Mellow Mushroom is as non-chainy as it gets. I love the feel of these places and how delightfully un-chainy they feel. Mellow Mushroom focuses on incorporating fresh, healthier ingredients in to your desire for easy munchie foods like sandwiches, calzones, and pizza. The Franklin location does a great job of hitting the high notes you want out of a Mellow Mushroom experience We went here to get take-out pizza thanks to a Check-In offer they had going but I've eaten in the restaurant one or two times before this. We had the thai chicken pizza without onions and it was delicious! Between two people, we stuffed the whole thing (medium pizza) in to our bellies like we were starving. It could have fed three if each person had two slices but we indulged a bit and split it between two. We called ahead 15 minutes out and the pizza was hot and ready for us when we arrived. I've had bad experience with Mellow Mushroom waiting times before so this was a nice surprise! Pros: Tasty foods and totally worth the extra price for the quality of pizza over your typical chain pizza spot. They don't even have a fryer in the restaurants which is helpful if you're trying to meet certain New Years resolutions! Cons: It can take a while to get your food at Mellow Mushrooms if you eat in but we were able to get our pizza quickly via take-out this time through. Overall: Higher quality option for pizza and super flavorful! They also have plenty of options for your vegan, vegetarian, and health-seeking friends. Good location off of the square in Franklin. read more

Mellow Mushroom Franklin - The TV options at the bar are pretty good. Decent game day option. - Pizza Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Since our Mellow Mushroom closed in the 'Boro, we have to head to the square in Franklin to get our fix. They are still holding down the fort out there. The Pacific Rim Hawaiian Pizza is my favorite. Yes, Pineapple DOES GO on Pizza. Especially with Ham & Jalapeño. The garlic cheese bread is drool worthy. Always a fun beer selection. Last time was the Chocolate Moon Pie Stout. The pizza is always fantastic, and at this location in particular the service has been outstanding. They get the extra star for that. Thank you Mellow Mushroom, we shall return! read more

Wait staff is terrible. Place was fairly empty and we had to wait for 15 min for table. Which says a lot for management, I guess. Our waitress totally forgot our drinks. Then concocted a story about the printer messing up. The drinks sat out there until after our pizza was ready. read more

I guess I am a sucker for STRANGELY NAMED RESTAURANTS (see my other reviews!) Heck, I will make a LIST with them! This place has two large rooms with inside seating and outside as well, which was sadly packed on a TUESDAY night. I really wanted to sit outside and hear the awesome REGGAE BAND, but no such luck! I had the PIZZA: Mediteranean which sadly had CHICKEN on it- I should have read the menu better and had that REMOVED, but alas, the girl was starving! So I gave the pizza to my date. AMBIANCE? Fun, quirky, COLOURFUL, ALIVE! V SAYS: The COCONUT JAMAICAN MOJITO was delicious and worth more than one! Would it be a VPEAT? YES! read more

Great late afternoon and evening staff. Good food. Good background music and atmosphere.

Yum. That's what I can say about Mellow Mushroom Franklin in a single word. Yum. Mellow Mushroom Franklin is absolutely delicious! A great, eclectic menu with all kinds of great choices for pizza with a wheat option and even gluten free is available. My favorite happens to be the Buffalo Chicken and it's a must try! Well so is the Red Potato. Or the Funky BBQ. Well - they are all AWESOME! Now - if you are looking for a traditional pizza with lots of pizza sauce then this isn't the pace for you. This is a different kind of pizza - not what you would get at Pizza Hut, Papa Johns, or one of those places. This is GOOD pizza - how pizza should really be! The beer club is a must if you enjoy your brews and there is a great variety - huge beer menu; however the reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that every time I order the beer I want - they happen to be out. I always have to have a back up choice in beer because it never fails!! Super great service too! Nice outdoor seating available. If you're in downtown Franklin - stop by and have lunch at the Mellow Mushroom - you won't my sorry (well in my opinion at least). read more

Mellow Mushroom Franklin - Pizza Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Stopped in for lunch based on the recommendation of a local family. There were nine in our party and they were able to seat us quickly. We ordered one large buffalo chicken pizza and one large Mighty Meat. Both were very good. We liked how both the sausage and hamburger meat is ground very fine versus chunks of meat. Very wide selection of beers. read more
