What a great place. Everything was delicious. Fresh oysters , grilled octopus tuna , pork chop and the best key lime pie we have ever had. Service was excellent as well. We will def be back next time in Gloucester.
The Franklin exceeded our expectations!
We were in Cape Ann to visit the Edward Hopper Exhibit at the Cape Ann Museum (exhibit now closed). We Googled nearby restaurants for a quick bite before driving to Cambridge for an Early Music Festival concert.
The Franklin came up with very good reviews a
This is one of our tried and true favorites. The service is friendly and helpful. Grace, who is often our waitress is truly fantastic! The food is creative but not overdone. We love the cod, the catfish picata, arugula salad, the shrimp tacos and the key lime tart and warm chocolate cake with ice cr
The restaurant made our weekend!! Staff, food and drinks were amazing…. Coming back to try the Hanger Steak!!
Great experience. Chicken piccata special was delicious, homemade pasta. Great service, can’t wait to go back there soon.
My husband and I used to go to the Franklin for a late night dinner after we left work (before kids). We went tonight and I am happy to report, we had the sole and short rib and it was delicious. The bartender paid just enough attention to us to feel like we were on a date but not alone. The place w
We had dinner here last night and the whole experience was wonderful! The staff were so incredibly nice and friendly. The food was delicious. I had the burger and my boyfriend had the tuna. Both were perfect and the wine selection was excellent. I also want to point out how clean the bathroom was wh
Cannot wait to return. The food was simple but so heavenly. Everything was cooked to perfection and the ingredients were beautiful.
Very quaint and wonderful place. Great food, and the staff are wonderful. Small, so I suggest reservations. Worth going to.
We had a great time. There is a great vibe there. The staff was awesome. The bartender was awesome. The food awesome. Everything was awesome.
I usually don't use awesome that much in reviews, but it was a great night. We also made new friends there.
We will be back.
Fabulous dining experience. The meal was incredible. So delicious.
We had our rehearsal dinner at Franklin Cape Ann. The food was absolutely incredible. The upstairs room is gorgeous. The service was a 10/10 and Maria was amazing to work with. She made the night so great and worry free. I can't wait to go back and enjoy the yummy food again!
3 friends sharing 4 different appetizers. It was excellent. Cocktails were excellent also.
Fantastic food, ambiance and service! We recently attended a rehearsal dinner for my daughter hosted by the grooms family who are from out of state and did not know where to go in Gloucester. I gave them a list of possible options with a strong recommendation for the Franklin.

Food was great and server was very nice. Tomato soup was very good, burger was on point and popcorn shrimp was also good.
We sat upstairs in the dining ro, lovely cocktails and delicious specials. I had the sea bass special and my husband had the tuna special. Both were over $30 meals, but it was nice to get out and support local businesses. Our waitress was delightful. Overall a great experience.
Jodi/Jody was our waitress and was taking care of the entirety of the first floor (ten tables). Even while under this pressure, (and it only being her second shift) she still gave her valued opinion on drinks, meals, ect. The BBQ wings (with a hint of truffle) were alright.
