Big Bad Breakfast, Franklin Style

Big Bad Breakfast Franklin brings Your Southern Scratch Diner to Williamson County with breakfast, brunch and lunch seven days a week and genuine Southern hospitality every day. Our menu was created by James Beard Award-winning and Michelin-recommended Chef John Currence, with scratch-made Southern food at the heart of the BBB experience.

We crack real eggs, hand-batter our chicken and make biscuits, gravies, jams, salad dressings, hollandaise, sauces, Bloody Mary mix and JC’s Hot Sauce from scratch. Franklin guests can also dig into our cinnamon rolls. Local honey, locally sourced Grit Girl Grits and fresh produce whenever possible keep us connected to Tennessee. Lighter choices include avocado toast, steel-cut oatmeal, house-made granola and yogurt, egg-white omelets, wraps and salads. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are available; let us know your dietary needs and we’ll do our best to accommodate them.

Lunch offers burgers, sandwiches and our fried chicken sandwich. Fresh-squeezed orange juice is made daily, while lattes, cappuccinos and espresso shots help start the day. Enjoy our large pet-friendly outdoor patio and ask about our Happy Hour. Full-service breakfast and lunch catering is perfect for teacher appreciation, athletic teams, colleges, PTO meetings, showers, wedding mornings, corporate events and meetings.
