Best coffee in Franklin and quite possibly the best in the greater Nashville area. The coffee packs a punch! They give you a chocolate espresso bean that is out of this world, I don’t care if it’s homemade or not, it adds to the uniqueness of this place. 16/10 would recommend for Triple D!Get the Pumpkin Cuban Iced if it’s available when you see this!

Hello. Just wanted to thank you both for opening this up and bringing a little of Seattle/WA here. We moved here from there few years ago and I was excited when I found this place. Couldnt make it to Seattle for my daughters 20th bday so I woke her up before school and drove from Murfreesboro to your little place on wheels at 7am to bring Seattle to her! It completely started her day right. The girl (forgot her name but lighter color hair) was amazing! Ive been back since few times. Others living here might not appreciate it as much as someone like us who is use to these private drive thru places back in Seattle. Most places here dont have good espresso, usually sour taste to it but your espresso has WA state all over it...completely takes me back home. The coffee bean on top completely made me feel like I was in Everett at one of my favorite places. Than you again. ☺

Southerners Coffee is not only the cutest little coffee shop I’ve ever seen but it is DELICIOUS too. I ordered the Morning haze(hot) with whipped cream with caramel drizzle. It was the perfect temperature and I felt like I was drinking a dessert! So very tasty! The service was FANTASTIC! I really didn’t know what I wanted but I told Ashley what flavors I liked the most and she suggested a few but this one in particular she thought I’d like the most based on what I told her. ! She was fast and obviously knowledgeable of all the coffees y’all have! Will definitely be back !!!

Southerner’s coffee has quickly become one of our favorite local coffee shops. While they don’t roast their own coffee, they have high standards for the coffee they do use. They offer a wide variety of delicious beverages and some small bites, all at an affordable price. Also, their staff is very kind and pleasant to interact with. You might first go for the coffee, but you’ll return because of the service!

Smoothies, small bites, specialty lattes, and more! You can find this cute coffee shop in the parking lot of Frenchs Boots in Franklin. They have a drive thru or you can walk up and order. Be on the lookout for a new Cool Springs location 😎.

My wife and I LOVE Southerner’s Coffee! We come multiple times a week if possible. Christian and just wife are the sweetest, and they’re always quick to recommend drinks. They have fast service and excellent coffee! Our favorite is the Unity with almond milk 👏🏻 Also, they have the best prices on coffee in town! They also have plant-based energy drinks and smoothies, along with all of the coffee and tea options you could want. We love this place and are so glad they joined us in Franklin!

BEST coffee! Love this place and these kind hardworking people. It’s especially awesome for us moms who may have sleeping kiddos in the car to drive up and get a GREAT hot cup of coffee while they keep napping away.I also love that they give you a little chocolate espresso bean as a free little treat with your coffee. Go support them!

I stopped at Southerner’s for the first time this morning. The owner was such a nice guy, and I love supporting local businesses. Everybody should go support this locally owned business. He will make you the perfect coffee or whatever it is you’re wanting. Today I needed Decaf and sugar-free and i wasn’t sure what to order to make it yummy. He helped me come up with a delicious Latte. They also have some breakfast items.

Review №25

I am so happy this place is here! This is hands down the best coffee I’ve had in such a long time. I usually get an iced americano whenever I order coffee somewhere and this one was perfect. Not only is the coffee here great, so is their customer service. It’s rare to find genuine customer service like these two are serving up to people, but they have absolutely nailed it. So happy I don’t have to fight for a parking spot near Starbucks in order to get my caffeine fix before work!

Excellent Coffee! I love supporting local whenever I can and it is obvious this cute little gem is a local family owned business. This place knows how to do customer service right!!! Christian was very kind, genuine, sincere, and knowledgeable about his product. You can taste the passion for coffee done right! This was our first visit and we will definitely return! Probably will change my route to work to swing by for another awesome cappuccino!!! Thank You Christian and many blessings to you and your little southern slice of Heaven!

This place is great! I love having a local company that is close, fast and run by great people. They also have a variety of non-dairy options.

Always a highlight of my day to go by Southerners coffee!! They are SO kind, friendly and intentional about brightening my day!!

Southerners is a place you want to stop by daily & with their hours from 6a to 6p, they allow for you to do so. The friendly faces, positive attitudes, top notch customer service, drive thru or walk up option & delicious menu offerings will leave you wanting to return soon. Thankful we have a local Southern flair to our coffee & various different beverage options for our children, too. If you havent stopped by yet, make sure you do. Someone will soon ask What is your favorite Southerners cup of goodness?.

After hearing rave reviews about Southerners Coffee, I finally tried it for the first time, and the entire experience was superb! I love that it offers a drive-thru option -- a real perk on cold, rainy days -- and the owner, Christian, was so warm and friendly. A true Southerner. :) My latte was delicious -- hit the spot! This will definitely be my new go-to coffee shop!

Just what the area has needed! I’ve just found my new favorite coffee place! I know everyone fights about who has the best coffee, and I am always on the hunt for the BEST I can find. THIS. IS. IT!! Yes, Franklin has has some good places for coffee, but Southerner’s will change your big chain coffee habit forever and you will be putting money into a small local business rather than some billionaire who needs his 4th vacation home abroad. They are super fast for such a small place! Such friendly, individual attention and such a cute TINY place...you MUST look for it or you will miss it as so did at first. It is in the parking lot with the little donut shop, right across from Sonic. It’s worth making the u-turn if you miss it the first time.

I have been anticipating my first cup at Southerner’s since reading an article in the newspaper about its “opening” (more like its “arrival” since it operates out of a trailer). I am having my first cup as I write this. A half caff americano. It’s superb! I really like the taste of whatever kind of coffee he uses. While the coffee is great, I can tell that Christian, the owner, is going to do well. He is friendly, customer service oriented, interactive and has personality. Christian and his coffee and the whole concept of the trailer in the parking lot are all a 10. I’ll be back. I dare you to give it a shot and get a shot (no pun intended).
