Great news! Our “Famous” catering will continue to serve Franklin and Cool Springs! Catering orders can be placed for the Franklin/Cool Springs area through our Hermitage restaurant for the immediate future, as we work to find a new Franklin location.

A lot of #Life has happened around our restaurant! Husbands met wives, babies were welcomed and birthdays were celebrated! Thank you for an incredible 14 years. We truly appreciate your patronage and all of the wonderful relationships we've made during our time here. From our family to yours, #HappyNewYear!!! 🎉🎉🎉

We're so proud that we've been able to sharing our blessings with the community over the years! From Toys for Tots, to our annual Memorial Day weekend letter-writing campaign for soldiers & service members, to our fundraising for Make a Wish - it's been a great experience to help others. We’ve also been lucky enough to support many local schools, including Centennial High where Famous Dave's has become the “official BBQ” of CHS as a thank you for our continued contribution to its programs!

Woah, we're half way there. Woah, eating half rack platter. C'mon in, we'll make it I swear. Woah, half rack platter. #HalfRack #HumpDay Give it a shot!

It's #TastyTuesday and we've got a platter build just for you (or two!)

We were part of the Franklin Christmas parade for 14 straight years Kids have watched for our Mascot, Wilbur, riding behind our 1936 Nash! Merry Christmas for our 'Famous' family to yours!

We’ve catered thousands of events through our Franklin kitchen over the years! Clients have become friends! The great news is our “Famous” catering continues to serve Franklin! And those smiling faces you’ve depended on will continue taking care of our catering clients faithfully!

This holiday season, we wanted to reassure all of our customers that because of our close ties to our truly ‘Famous’ 47 employees, we’ve assured them they will be offered jobs as well as bonuses for remaining with the company at our Hermitage or Smyrna locations while we find the right location to re-open.

To our Famous Dave’s Franklin Family & Friends: With great sadness we announce that our Franklin restaurant will permanently close on New Year’s Eve. Our landlord sold this property and the new owner hopes to repurpose it. We hope to find a new home in Williamson County soon. As you know, we have some truly Famous people working with us here every day and we’ve offered them positions in our Hermitage and Smyrna locations! We’ll continue working with our catering clients as if nothing has changed! We have truly been blessed to be part of the community here for 14 years! We know a lot of “life” has happened here! Together we’ve celebrated birthdays and anniversaries, husbands met wives, and babies have been shown off under our roof. Business was conducted, friends got to laugh and sometimes cry together, and school ball teams got fed many pre-game meals because of our restaurant. Together we wrote letters to soldiers serving in harm’s way, and we granted wishes for children facing life-threatening illnesses through our efforts with Make-A-Wish. So even as we prepare to say goodbye, we have so much to be grateful for! Please come see us over the next few days! We’d love to share stories about what our place has meant for you! Let’s make a few more memories together!

Our Nashville #Predators are starting the season strong!

Invite your friends and eat some 'Que. It'll guarantee you a spot on the nice list this year.

Only 1 week until #Christmas! You better watch out, you better not cry, better not pout, I'm telling you why... #SantaClausIsCominToTown
