The best restaurant in Franklin NC. Without a doubt get the shrimp and grits. Best dish in the world. Large selection of desserts and also a gluten free menu. Don’t let the convenience store next door scare you away. 5 star restaurant.

The food is awesome and the menu is diverse for your mood of the day. Excellent pour choices and the coffee is perfect. My wife is allergic to gluten and she had no problems. Any menu item is recommended!

"Our cafe offers inspired health-conscious cuisine focused on sustainable ingredients and organic whenever possible. Enjoy a delicious breakfast, brunch or lunch-with organic, vegan or gluten free options available."-David & Beatriz Gomez (828 Owners). (Quote from their website) I had: Chicken or Chorizo Bowl. $9.99... Chicken or Chorizo, Rice, Black Beans, Lettuce, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream, Cheese, w/house Potato chips and house Roasted Salsa...add Avocado $1.69 Wife had: Chicken BLT Wrap $10.99... Tomato Basil Wrap, Signature chicken tenders, Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Ranch, w/side of house Potato Chips Parking: The cafe has free parking and easily accommodated the lunch time crowd with spaces in the front (including handicap) as well on the side in a lot, and in the back as well. 828 Cafe's appearance from the street is striking!!! It features a mural of a black Bears face with the mountains in the background. It was done (according to website) by an artist friend named Marina who is amazing! Take time to walk around the outside and see all the different scenes she did. Inside: 828 is order-@-the counter and take a seat and in a short bit your food is delivered. Many folks were ordering take-out or picking up orders already called in. If you're into Kombucha they have that too! Food: The Chorizo Bowl was well composed, tasty, healthy, and filling. I would order again unless I decided to go for the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich instead, Lol. My wife really liked the Chicken BLT Wrap. It was plenty of food but light and healthy for lunch. The price point for lunch was good for us. The breakfast menu is worth it if you are there at that time of day. They have great choices of omelettes, french toast, waffles and breakfast bowls with some creative touches and often a Latin twist. Drinks Organic Coffee Drip 12 oz. $2.29 16oz $2.69 refill $1.00 Cold Brew 16 oz. $3.00 Specialty Drinks Kombucha $4.50 kefir Soda $4.50 I highly recommend (and no, I do not know the owners. It's the 1st time we have visited here.) ...we will come back.

Best gluten free pizza I have had in a long time. Owner made sure my dietary needs (gluten and lactose free) we’re met. She was great. My husband had spaghetti and meatballs and loved it. We will definitely be back!

Love it! They have a large selection on the menu, and my gluten-free friend was able to find plenty of good things.
