Reviews


Up to this point, you have 2053 evaluations from 4 website(s) on hand. The midpoint valuation for The Franklin Hotel is 4.2, this indicates guests have a very high opinion of this restaurant. The Franklin Hotel offers a fabulous funky pub setting with a huge range of interesting beers and a good wine list. The front bar has great service and friendly staff. While the hot dogs are popular, the fancier mains might not be as impressive. The menu might not always be up to date, but the staff is highly praised. The zucchini and haloumi fritters, fish, and chicken parmy are highly recommended, with the parmy being considered the best in Adelaide and even Melbourne. The craft beer selection is exceptional, and the service from the staff, particularly mentioned Olivia, is top-notch. The atmosphere at the Franklin Hotel is described as trendy, warm, and welcoming, making it an ideal spot for after-work drinks or a leisurely weekend pint.
