The Fainting Goat Coffee- Franklin

First off, our frappe’s were delicious! And the overall goat theme of this place is pretty cool! Lots of fun paintings and artwork. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of places for people who might just come to the coffee shop to work. There’s an upstairs seating area with a balcony that looks out across the road to the historic Carter house/battleground. Outside of the main entrance they also have some seating and bench swings. We loved it and can’t wait to go again!

Great coffee and even better service. Glad I asked for an extra espresso shot. It would've been pretty weak without it. I guess I'm not sure how espresso shots are measured but they explained that they put in a double shot to begin with and I was asking for another double shot. I watched it being made and they were not two ounce shots. I've measured with an 1.5 ounce shot glass for decades. Compared to other places I've been to in Franklin for the same exact order, we paid a good bit more here. It'd be hard to justify the cost to come back again. Service was the best around without a doubt.

Saw a review that said that visiting this coffee shop was a check on the reviewers bucket list. And, I’m gonna be honest, I scoffed at the idea that a coffee shop would be a bucket list check. I’m not too big to admit when I’m wrong. This was the best coffee that I’ve ever had - EVER. I consider myself a coffee snob and I truly can’t remember a better cup of coffee. It’s a darn shame I live in Wilson County. Maybe it’s a good thing. I don’t think my wallet could stand it if I lived close. 10/10. No notes! I will definitely be back.

This newer addition to the coffee house scene in Franklin is a winner on all accounts. Wonderfully personable staff, unique and tasteful setting inside and out, and fabulous coffee offerings make The Fainting Goat an unbeatable location for great coffee and a place to socialize. The place that gives you stars for your caffeine purchases does not hold a candle to The Fainting Goat. And in the Fall, don't miss their incredible PSL!

Great coffee shop in Franklin. While the drip coffee I had was forgettable, the cappuccino was fantastic. I also had to try the croissant, which was still warm out of the oven. I was a bit surprised that it had a honey glaze. While it wasn't amazing, it was certainly better than most croissants I've had in the US.
