Have visited Franklin numerous times and was introduced to Fat Buddies for the first time this Sept. Tucked in a shopping center with ample parking you will find the best bar-b-que ever. Had a large group and young and old all loved their meal. The...More

My husband and I vacationed in Franklin North Carolina and we found an amazing BBQ place. The good was so delicious and we even bought a t-shirt to take back home with us.

New menu. Ribs disappointing. Rolls are still great, but batter-fried foods are very heavy and greasy. Servers not familiar with menu. Won't go back.

Had dinner there tonight. Food was fantastic as usual. (even though I ate the entire plate without anything to drink!!). Waitress left a lot to be desired. Ran out of drink before my food arrived. She was at three different tables around me and NEVER...More

We've picked up take-out a few times from Fat Buddies. We can highly recommend the pulled pork sandwich. The other items/sides are good but not outstanding. Check your bag to make sure you get all the items needed such as sauce, napkins. Sometimes these items...More
