SL: What are some of your favorite Franklin destinations you’d recommend to a reader?
Karen: My top Franklin destinations have to include:
- Main Street, downtown Franklin. Top of the list has to be walking downtown Franklin’s Main Street. Spend a day strolling both sides of Main Street and shopping at the unique storefronts and boutiques. Stop for a malt at Kilwins and lunch at Merridee’s or Gray’s on Main.
- Puckett’s in downtown Franklin. Plan your dinner at Puckett’s just off Main Street, where you eat the best Southern food and listen to one of the many talented local artists while you dine.
- The Factory, just north of downtown Franklin. In what was once an old factory, there are dozens of artsy and unique shops at The Factory. Five Daughters Donuts and Honest Coffee Roasters are two of the must-stop places. Whenever friends or family visit us, my kids always take them there!
- The Antique Mall in downtown Franklin. Antique shopping just off Main Street in downtown Franklin is another favorite way to spend an afternoon. The Antique Mall is run by the friendliest people, and you can shop for hours, drifting from one room to the other and getting lost in the artifacts of days gone by. Here you will always find a treasure or two to bring back to the people you love.
