Great place for a cup of coffee, cortado, lunch, or dinner. If you are looking to knock out some work, head up the stairs... Plenty of space, a bit more quiet, and they bring your order to you!
Great coffee and healthy food. It's got a lot of room and a solid wifi connection, good space to get some work done.
Mollie GarriganSeptember 3, 2016Every time I drive through Franklin I try and stop here. It's a wonderful, cozy atmosphere with delicious food and bevs! I highly recommend.
Our first stop when we get to town from Michigan is the Frothy Monkey. Best lattes I've ever had anywhere! I love the peaceful atmosphere and have always had excellent service.
Todd KunaApril 10, 2019Fantastic spot for coffee, lunch or more. We came back to Franklin just to check it out on a road trip and enjoyed sandwiches and iced lattes on the patio- JamesNovember 23, 2015I love this locally owned cafe where they craft premium drinks with latte art and care. I highly recommend the Rosemary Honey Latte!
- Missy EmrichMay 12, 2017Excellent coffee. Owner really cares about quality and giving good service. We are not young hipsters, but were made to feel welcome.
Great coffee and good egg dishes, but the toast was barely toasted and limp both times I was there. Take your coffee cup to the counter if you want a warm-up or refill.- Good for lunch and dinner but if you want a hot breakfast go someplace else. The eggs and toast are always cold and today's bacon was nearly congealed. Ugh. I'm done trying.
"The coffee's great if you stand and wait." That should be the quote on the door. The line here is always slow. If visit more often if they knew how to pick up the pace a little bit.
Amy BourkeMarch 10, 2014Best bacon that I have ever tasted. Love this place. Friendly atmosphere with great coffee and food!!!
T-Bone CampbellJuly 7, 2013The title says Monkey - the silhouette is NOT a Monkey! It is a Baboon!! GAWD!!! Is there any justice in the world!!!! Lol
Emily BrackmanFebruary 14, 2016Try one of the specialty drinks and you must eat anything on the menu it's the best !!!!
Certainly StrangeJuly 30, 2022The hash was great, should have added the egg on. The huevos needed the barbacoa for sure
Jey TiourchiOctober 25, 2022Vanessa is a great barista! Coffee is pretty good, pricy though. Food is ok. The servers are a bit overwhelmed so it is a bit slow. Great ambiance.
Evan FortuneOctober 10, 2014Sweet Potato latte is an interesting twist on an unsweetened seasonal latte option.
Any beverage with the word monkey in it is good. Heck, they're all good.
Wow! Iced black tea is amazing, and I NEVER drink my tea unsweetened Ever! Til now.
- Frothy Breakfast and Mocha Monkey is the ultimate breakfast.
- The macchiato isn't what you would expect, but it is delicious.
I don't drink coffee much , but I always like a cup of White Monkey Mocha.
Paolo BaroneMarch 11, 2016Came for espresso and it is simply not good. The place is nice and the food looked nice (although we did not taste it) but espresso was bad
