    We had Scott as our waiter, it was his final day of training. Scott was very attentive and his trainer was really great. Everything was pleasant from the moment we walked in the door. Atmosphere was wonderful and the food was delicious! We’ll definitely be back.

    Excellent experience with dinner at Cork & Cow! The Bartender, Waiter, and Receptionist were polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. The Bartender served a perfect Bourbon Old Fashion, the Waiter’s dinner recommendation turned out to be fantastic, the food was out of this world. Third time we have visited the Cork & Cow and have not been letdown in any way.

    This dining experience was simply fabulous. Our server was great - friendly and attentive. And the food was amazing. We decided the Brussels sprouts starter was the best we’ve ever had and both of our entrees - the scallops and the filet - were outstanding. Highly recommend!

    We eat at Puckett’s every time we visit Franklin, which is every year. Had breakfast our first morning and was by far the best we had the entire trip. Came back for dinner the next night for the music. Fell in love with Mary Lou!! Will follow her on social media just like we do Puckett’s. Till next time…♥️
