The Franklin Oyster Bar & Eatery is a destination for exceptional dining and unforgettable experiences.

Located in the charming heart of historic Franklin Village, MI, we focus on sustainable, locally sourced ingredients and use only the finest and freshest seafood. We offer a carefully curated selection of wines along with excellent handcrafted cocktails.

Rooted in history

Housed in a newly renovated historic building, The Franklin offers a fresh and inviting atmosphere that blends the aesthetic of Charleston with the ambiance of Napa, while preserving the unique charm of Franklin Village. Our beautiful outdoor patio, all-seasons pavilion, and quaint upstairs provide perfect spots for memorable gatherings and celebrations.

With non-seafood options available daily, The Franklin caters to all tastes, offering moments of unexpected joy and mouthwatering flavors throughout your dining experience.

We honor the rich heritage of Franklin Village, reflecting the early settlers' appreciation for East Coast oyster suppers and creating a legacy that is both timeless and welcoming.
