My friend's and I stopped in today to give this place a try. I was so impressed with the drink menu! All three of us enjoyed every sip of our drinks. We chatted with the owner for awhile who was very friendly and didn’t mind our company. This just may be my new favorite coffee shop in Franklin. If you are downtown, I highly recommend giving The Local grind a try! They also have a HUGE fall flavors menu!

This place is a hidden gem in Downtown Franklin. I’ve tried multiple different drinks and they have all been amazing. Come try out The Local Grind!

Good coffee, I had a cup of the Ethiopian blend black. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Looking forward to trying more of the menu next chance I get. Also noteworthy... it’s located in a really cool area of downtown. Check out the Bottleworks hotel if you have time and the Garage across the street is a great place for lunch.
