Such a great atmosphere and the bartenders are absolutely amazing . They made use feel welcomed and like friends & we all know how much that is appreciated on a lonely night , thank you & I will come again with my friends .
Great addition to our corner of Brooklyn. The homemade bread and butter was incredible, along with every other dish we tried (charcuterie, potatoes, and roast chicken). The drinks hit the spot and the service was a breath of fresh air for NYC. Excited to come back and try more!
Not a welcoming experience. The bartender was gatekeeping four tops for non-existent patrons. We couldn’t sit there-since it was reserved for 3 or more patrons but the seats were empty the whole time. It wasn’t the vibe I expected for a wine bar. The bartender was giving dive bar vibes to wine enthusiasts. Must be hard to find good help. Our first time going, after having it on our radar for awhile. Never going back. It’s fake fancy and there’s plenty of better places in Franklin Ave. area.
Have been here twice now – has a great vibe that is relaxed yet lively. Great range of wines on tap and small but delicious food menu. The bread pudding is my current favorite. Attentive staff and bartenders. Will definitely be back soon!
Recently had a birthday party here - staff was super helpful and accommodating. Exceptional wines by the glass and lovely curated selection of cocktails. Grilled cheese and The Franklin Melt are delicious, as are the potatoes. Relaxed yet vibrant and lively atmosphere. Will most definitely be back!
The Franklin Wine Bar, exceeds all expectations for previous wine bars I have been to before! The Franklin has an excellent mix of great food and delicious wines to sample. My favorite wine of the night was the Gargante which was a natural white wine free of sulfites. It was sampled with the charcuterie board. Each of the bartenders was very educated on the wine selection which helped elevate the experience
had the best time here. been wanting to visit since I heard it opened, so we made sure to stop by while in the area. shared many delicious bottles of wine, and had two mixed plates of charcuterie. vibes here were top notch and the cover of sugar ray was worth the double play. would’ve stayed forever if I could have!
The Franklin pulled off an amazing culinary experience that I would like to make happen again and again. The place looks amazing, it’s intimate and decorated just perfectly. The restaurant used to be an old bodega and they used reclaimed wood from its previous space to create these beautiful square and rectangular wood frame art pieces on the wall. The marble bar and table tops made me feel like I was somewhere else and not 15 minutes away from my house! The service was top tier and the foodddd (!) listennnn I’m still talking about that crispy skin chicken and those smashed potatoes two days later! Brooklyn deserves this neighborhood gem. Go here!
