Southerner's Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

My husband and I visited Southerner's on Royal Oaks this morning on the way to an errand. We waited about 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. :( read more

There should really be a sign out front that says how long it's going to take to get your coffee here. I had time to write this while sitting in the drive thru for over 45 minutes. The girl came out to my car and took my order 10 minutes in, and once you get into the main part of the drive thru there is no getting out. I don't think I've ever waited 45 minutes in line for coffee. Even with 10 cars in front of me. It was busy, no doubt, but kinda crazy to wait OVER 45 minutes for coffee. 1 latte. 1 bag of coffee beans, and they had no bags and gave me the coffee in a big cup, uncertain if this is the same size or amount of beans as the bag would have been? Tough day for Southerners. read more

Southerners Coffee is still one of the best in the city! I'm updating my review because not only did they revamp the menu they added cute cans for the 16oz iced coffee. You can get the cans with ice or without. I have had them both ways. I like to grab one without ice to enjoy Southerner's on my way into work. Just add ice pop the top and add to your favorite insulated cup. Recently my newest addiction is Cinnamon bun breve. My OG favorite is Daydreamer. I love all the locations honestly because customer service no matter the drive thru is always 10/10. Make sure if you visit more than once grab a punch card! Thank you Southerner's for still giving us high quality and consistency without an extremely high price tag. read more

This is my favorite on the go coffee! They always make their coffees and matcha to perfection. The staff is always so nice and helpful when I want something different. And it's so convenient with it being this cute little tiny home you can just pull up to. read more

Southerner's Coffee - Vanilla Iced Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Two trailers pepper greater Franklin and these folks when it comes to coffee know what they are doing. Hailing from Washington (and that states history of coffee) they bring great drip coffee as well as really good mixed coffee drinks. Plenty of options for the non-coffee drinker as well and you could not find nicer people service with a smile read more

Very good and just the right temperature to enjoy! I would recommend it. I wanted a peppermint mocha and even though it wasn't in the menu they made it for me! read more

What a charming little drive-up spot! Heads-up on the portions: their "small" is a hefty 16 oz. I stuck with a classic latte (solid and smooth), while my boyfriend's 20 oz Cuban was tasty but very sweet--definitely for sugar lovers. I'd swing back for the coffee anytime, but I'd probably skip the breakfast offerings. Bonus: the prices are unbeatable for the size you get! read more

I tried the Orchard brew with the white coffee bean. The barista had me try it at the window and I did not like it. She was so kind to make me a new one that I actually enjoyed. Most of the time when service workers have to remake something. They have an attitude and she was so nice polite, and kind did not make me feel wrong for not liking it. Which I 100% appreciate. As for the coffee, it is delightful 10/10will be back read more

Southerner's Coffee - Orchard brew with regular expresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

I have been sleeping on this spot and underestimated it. We were a bit confused on whether to walk up or drive thru, we learned both are welcome! It's located in the Aldi plaza parking lot off Royal Oaks Blvd. They have such unique lattes and I thought upon reading the menu it would be too sugar heavy but was pleasantly surprised by how strong and balance it was with the espresso!!! We both ordered The Campfire and it was FIRE, so good!! I will def be back and try some other creative lattes! The staff were so friendly and kind too! read more

Southerner's Coffee - Iced Oat Campfire from Southerner's - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

We heard this place was good so we found it in a parking lot in front of HomeGoods. I don't necessarily think it's a drive-through but people use it that way so why not? You can walk up or you can drive up. One of the employees came out and took our order from the car window. He suggested that we try the campfire as it's the most popular drink iced or hot and also the new Cuban Blackberry Bloom. we got a 24 ounce of each one. The campfire was very sweet and the coffee almost nonexistent. The Cuban blackberry Bloom was a very different taste. You could definitely taste the blackberry, but it was a soft taste and not overpowering at all. The girl that made our drink made sure that we liked the blackberry bloom before driving off that was very nice of her to have us taste it just in case. read more

As someone with a nut allergy, coffee shops can be a bit stressful. However after explaining my nut allergy the baristas were SO KIND and cautious, checking every ingredient and ensuring they were extremely diligent. Considering most shops seemed more annoyed at the added caution, this was a MAJOR breath of fresh air!! Well done southerners! this allergy gal will be returning!! read more

Cute little drive thru coffee shop we came across while at Whole Foods. There was only one employee working. She was super nice but we felt bad she was alone because we needed like 7 or 8 drinks and made everyone behind us in line wait 15 ish minutes for her to make them all. They definitely need more staff! I ordered the maple iced coffee seasonal drink and it was good! A bit on the sweeter side but I really enjoyed it! read more

I adore this little coffee shop for having the best food and lotus but lately I've had to stop getting food. Everytime I'll wait 15 minutes and then have to remind them to cook my food. I was 20 minutes late to school this morning because of it. read more

This is a great drive thru coffee shop. We often visit here for an after school treat. My girls love the Cotton Candy Kidz Kreamz! The prices are good and the baristas are always so kind. We typically only drive thru, but they do have walk-up as well and over the winter they had one of those snow globe tent that my kids thought was so fun! read more

This was my first visit to Southerner's Coffee. I found this location searching Yelp when I was nearby. I passed the shop initially as this is a small drive-up coffee shop. The Americano was very good and the coffee bean on top was a nice touch! There was only a short wait to order and I experienced pleasant, friendly service. One of the baristas let me know which beans they were serving and informed me the location also sells coffee beans. Definitely worth a try if you're in/near the area. read more

I dream about this coffee! Every time I visit TN I have to drink as much coffee as possible to get my fix. Service is quick and friendly. Must try! read more

One of my favorite places to grab a quick coffee in the Nashville area. Every time I'm in town I have to make a point to stop. Both locations are drive through only, but the drinks make the lack of seating 100% worth it. That have all kinds of homemade syrups and drinks. I always go for their natural energy drinks that are almost a cross between a slushee and a smoothie. They have items made for kids too so bring the family! Don't miss this hard to see little trailer on your way out of Franklin or Brentwood! read more

Just recently found this coffee shop, on Yelp, and it is my new favorite!! Not only is the coffee AMAZING, the team is so friendly! It's a little out of my way to get to but so worth it!! read more

Fast, friendly service by a local business. Lots of unique sweet coffee drinks on the menu as well as some small bites. I'm not much of a sweet coffee drinker, but of course they still make regular/plain coffee and espresso drinks even if you can't find it on the menu right away. The coffee is always tasty, and staff is super nice! read more

Southerner's Coffee - menu board - Sept 2022 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Love the shack drive thru concept and convenience, but you gotta know how to craft the drinks too. I usually order a latte as a first time experience at a new place. My theory is if you can steam the milk and extract a couple good shots you can likely make everything else pretty well. Unfortunately this place couldn't do either. The milk was just warm milk void of micro bubbles and though there were two shots (paid extra for the shot) it tasted like there was only one. So I had two sips, poured the rest out and was out $5, plus tip. I had a hunch the drink was going to be sub par when it was handed to me about the time we did the money exchange. Can't craft a drink that fast. I'll probably give the place another try to see if it was an off day with an untrained barista at the machine. read more

I don't know what they do to their roast to make it so good! It's the best coffee in town provided by the kindest people you will meet!

Such good coffee and sweet girls work there!! My favorite are the energy chillers! Coffee is super sweet too which I like but you can get it half sweet!! read more

Great coffee, just weird that when I ordered 3 coffees they were "only allowed to give me 2 punches" on my punch card.. where's the logic there? read more

Such a cool, creative drive through coffee shop! Loved the London Fog and the concept of this locally owned business!

Best coffee so far in TN! Employee was energetic, happy, helpful, and sincere! Will be back for sure

Love this place so much because it's so cute, convenient, and delish!! I highly recommend their matcha latte either with honey, lavender, or vanilla added (and ask for my fave barista Jocelyn bc she makes the best matcha lattes ever and she's super sweet)! read more

Really great coffee. You can taste the coffee even if you get a specialty drink. I got a mocha and it was delicious. Someone else in my party got a dirty chai, a vanilla latte, the signature drink. All of them were delicious. The service was quick even with all our separate orders. The person in the car behind us waited the entire time for 5 drinks to be made so that told me the drinks would be worth it. I love the mission statement and the guy taking the orders and payments was very chill. read more

Great little coffee shop. Nice alternative to the Big store. Prices were comparable.

Southerner's Coffee is a must visit in Franklin. They have a wide range of drink options and the employees give the friendliest customer service I have experienced in Franklin. read more
