Customer Reviews

"Great environment food is always good. People are always nice. I've been going to this restaurant as long as I can remember we'll always be one of my favorites. If you ain't ever tried it give it a shot. Highly recommend."

- Jake P.

"When we walked in, it felt like you were walking in to one of the old time diners. Incredible atmosphere with great food. It was decorated like an older 60's diner. We had an awesome lady for a waitress, she still called everyone "hun" and was one of the friendliest , most personable ladies i ever met. Wish i could remember her name, but shes retiring this year, so a huge shout out to her. She really made the experience fun! Food was very good, but the service is was sold me on the place. Would definitely recommend!!"

"Amazing food and service, great prices"

"A new favorite for us. I took the hubs and 2 kids out to try something new, for dinner around 7pm, and we were very pleased. Everyone was so very, very nice, a welcoming atmosphere, and the service was great. The food was hot, fresh, and really tasty. It didn't take too long at all and the prices were reasonable. It's difficult to decide which pie to taste afterwards! Will definitely come back again. Note - not for folks that can't stand the smell of cigarettes, otherwise it's perfect."

""Granny Franny's: Where the food's fast... eventually." Walked into Granny Franny's and instantly realized two things: 1) this place is packed, and 2) apparently, everyone in town already knew it would be. It's a "seat yourself" kind of deal -- except there were no seats. So I stood there like a lost extra in a Cracker Barrel commercial until a table finally freed up. No problem -- I grabbed a napkin, wiped it down, and claimed that bench like it was a Walmart Black Friday deal. The waitress was clearly in the trenches. Bless her heart -- she was running around like a chicken with its apron on fire. My drink order disappeared into another dimension. Asked once... twice... three times. I was about to start drinking from the syrup bottle just to stay hydrated. When the food did arrive, it was worth the wait. Problem was, it didn't all arrive together. Two people at my table were already scraping plates clean while the rest of us were still waiting like contestants on "Survivor: Diner Edition." But here's the thing -- if a place is this packed, they've got to be doing something right. And whatever that "something" is, it's probably deep-fried, covered in gravy, and absolutely delicious. So yeah, service was a bit chaotic, but the food hit the spot. If the kitchen and servers ever get on the same timeline, Granny Franny's would be a solid 5-star stop. Until then, I'm calling it 3 stars -- but with 5-star flavor and 2-star speed."

"This little restaurant right off hwy 67 heading south toward Farmington is an older restaurant. The food there is really good. They actually have quite the variety to choose from on the menu. The food was tasty & we were pleased. The food was prepared & served in a timely manner & the waitress was very pleasant & did everything she could to accommodate our group. We will return..."
