Yonger is a rare shop, in my humble opinion, for east coast since healthy choices both in markets and eateries are like trying to find a needle in a haystack so my heart happy knowing this exists here not far from where we stayed at just minutes from our children's maternal great-grandparents home. So many wonderful options and staff was friendly from the time we walked in to the moment of checkout. I highly recommend this shop to anyone who's looking for more sustainable items or at least a healthier choice here and there.

We stopped here on our way home and our waitress was super sweet. I asked her to surprise me-which I know most waitresses aren't a fan of- but I have never been disappointed yet.

Having said that, I didn't order a steak after the banana nut chicken caught my eye. This fried chicken breast in a banana nut glaze was delicious and unique. This dish is worth a visit in itself. There was also a good deal in the special menu for two with a selection of entrees for $15 each. Portions were large and everyone enjoyed their selection. Service was fast and friendly, and the ambiance inside the old, Main Street building screams elegance.

I chose the opal basil dish with scallops. I have celiac, so rice was the base for a gluten free option. My husband had the crawfish with cognac and pasta dish. The descriptions on the menu were very different, however the dishes seemed to have the same base sauce. And boy was it salty!!! My husband adds salt to everything and both dishes were too salty even for his taste. Hoping this was a one off and quality hasn't declined. On a better note, the gingerbread cake was top notch!!

Pasta was served with overcooked broccoli drenched in garlic. Prices are a bit high but overall an enjoyable meal!

We stopped by on a Monday at around 10am since we came in to visit family, and it was fantastic! Maybe we hit the timing jackpot, but all of the food was freshly placed as we walked the line, including a massive mound of hot, crispy bacon. My teenage son and I ate enough to last a couple of days, and we enjoyed every bite. Our waitress was very attentive, kept our glasses filled, and was pleasant to talk to. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Franklin.

I got the…read morehalf order of biscuits and gravy, it was perfectly seasoned with a little bit of spice and the biscuit was fluffy and perfect- I could eat 10. I got the coconut refresher, not too sweet and still had caffeine. They have topo Chico, my favorite sparkling water, so they got bonus points for that. They have a pastry window(?) that had a decadent looking, huge, slice of blueberry coffee cake and a cheesecake I would have tried if I was in the mood for sweets. I saw a couple enjoying it and letting the staff know the coffee was delicious. The tables are spacious, there were only around 6 people when I went and the atmosphere made it easy to ignore the other people and write this. But other "strangers" began conversations so it is still inviting. The music is acoustical versions of modern songs. I saw a staff cleaning the counters around the place while I ate so they definitely keep it clean. The gentleman who took my order was friendly and not overbearing. Overall perfect place to sit and read on my break from a gloomy day. Only note would be that I wanted my food for here and they made it to go.

Coffee? Delicious! Biscuit breakfast sandwich? Delicious!…read moreBuuuut what really made me love this place was the friendliness of the people working. I actually went on two different days, one to get breakfast and coffee and another day just for coffee. Both days the place was slammed, but everyone working was still so pleasant and kind.

We would definite return when we're looking for Mexican. $24 and change for their Tacos Tipicos and two drinks.
