City Cafe - A Southern Meat & Three

| Comments (0)

The first time I heard someone use the term "Meat & Three", it was a coworker who was referring to Toby's Chicken Kitchen at 1346 W. Main Street in Franklin. I must admit that the food at Toby's was great, but I still can't get past that term....


It probably sounds silly to someone who is used to this type of restaurant, but I kept thinking "..three what?" Finally I gave it a try and it finally hit me - "...THREE SIDE ITEMS!"

By the way, on a side note - macaroni & cheese is not a vegetable.

We tried out Brentwood's own City Cafe at 330 Franklin Road and it was fantastic. The food is what I would call 'comfort food' since it makes one think of your grandmother's cooking. They're open limited hours during lunch and dinner, so call ahead to make sure you'll get there in time to eat.


A couple of other interesting items:


  • The walls are decorated with paintings by local artists, and are available for purchase.

  • They have a Community Table, so if you're eating alone sit down and chat with someone who you probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet.
