Franklin's hidden Gem! Greek town has nothing on their lemon chicken soup! The sandwiches are outstanding and the soups are delicious. Owner and staff are friendly and nice! I was supposed to take a picture of my lunch but I was distracted by the delicious scent wafting out of my to go bag, so here is my lunch halfway through !

Caffé Artisan was fantastic! The young man that helped us at the register was very helpful with the order. My wife and I both got a butterscotch caramel iced coffee and I’d give it an 8/10. I got the turkey and cheese toasted sandwich and I thought it was really good. My favorite part was the atmosphere. It was very open and inviting, and it was connected to a store. There was also plenty of space to sit. I’ll be coming back to get some work done for sure.

Do yourself a favor and get the Italian Beef! Fantastic! Chef Jeff puts these bad boys together so well, you'll think you're in Chicago. Awesome staff, helped me put together an order for the team and even helped me to the car with everything. Outstanding!

A pleasant surprise. I was not expecting the food to be that good, especially when you walk in and it’s open to the marketplace. But, man was I wrong. The Brielicious Grilled Cheese might be the best grilled cheese I’ve had… ever. Wish it was bigger but it was delicious. House made chips were killer too!

The staff are so nice and helpful! The location is really nice as well being inside the Painted Tree. The food is amazing! I've had the Tomato Basil Soup w/ Grilled Cheese Sandwich, The Fruit Smoothie, Vanilla Caramel Latte and The Benedictine w/ Egg & Bacon. These are pretty much my go-to's. They are amazing! If you're out with friends, shopping or looking for a quiet spot to get some work done, I highly recommend Café Artisan. Several different seating options too! Something for everyone, even groups of 6-8 or just by yourself. This spot has made a it's way to one of my spots of choice!

Sandwiches, soups, pies, smoothies, and much more! This newer, artisan food shop is located inside the Painted Tree in Franklin. There is a lot of parking available, plenty of seating with beautifully decorated table tops, and after you eat you can explore the many shops within the Painted Tree.

I wanted to check out this cafe and when I reached there I found out the wonderful shopping area this cafe is supporting, like the Nordstrom Cafe but they have 20+ independent small boutiques in the area selling everything from clothes to jewelry to home decor, you get the gist. The food and coffee / drinks are fairly priced. I was so happy to find out their Avocado Toast comes in three different ways with different prices. I’m usually the one paying ridiculous amount for the avocado toast and then removing everything else on it (egg, bacon etc) because I like it plain and they have a well thought-out menu that caters to everyone’s needs including plain avocado toast. Blueberry scone was okay, a bit dry and can use a better texture in my opinion. Plenty of parking at the open parking lot outside. I ended up shopping so many things when I thought I was just going there for breakfast and was quite happy to have found this place (for both food and shopping).
