Rod and gun club all-you-can-eat breakfast - Sunday, August 17

"Listen, I know we crack yolks and it may seem like our brains are scrambled, but we're gonna spill the (baked) beans and give you the tea so there's no egg on our face.

We love serving you breakfast.

Sure it takes a lot of work and sometimes we're (French) toast early Sunday morning after a long Saturday night, but that's just how the sausage is made.

So let's (corned beef) hash this all out, home fries.

Our all-you-can-eat $10 ($5 for kids) breakfast is in four days on Aug. 17. It's open to the public and we'll have plenty for everyone so you don't need to pancake each other to get in. It's cash-only, at 53 Florence St. in Franklin, from 7:30-11 am.

So come visit your friends at the Franklin Rod & Pun Club and let us serve you great food for the best price in town."

Why are there multiple calendars?

What's happening today in Franklin? 

Respectfully, the Library and Senior Center calendars are too full of events to include all their events so we tend to focus on the major events. Town and School meetings are also kept separate. Links for all the calendars are shared here:

All You Can Eat Breakfast - Franklin Rod & Gun Club - Feb 16

Valentine's Day weekend is upon us and there's nothing more romantic than heading down to the Franklin Rod & Gun Club to stuff yourself silly with sausage (and eggs, home fries, pancakes, French toast, baked beans, and corned beef hash).

All You Can Eat Breakfast - Feb 16

On February 16 from 7:30-11 AM, you can get a $10 ($5 for kids 12 and under) all-you-can-eat breakfast you're guaranteed to adore.

Sure, it'll be chocolate chips in pancakes instead of Ghirardelli from the box, and you'll trade champagne in flute glasses for coffee in mugs.

But does that upscale restaurant have deer heads mounted on the wall and free Golden Tee? Didn't think so.

Eat fancy on Friday night but fall in love with breakfast at the gun club come Sunday. We'll save a heart-shaped pancake just for you!

Rod & Gun Club, Jan 19 from 7:30 - 11 AM

"New year, same delicious (and affordable) breakfast down at the Franklin Rod & Gun Club. 

This month's all-you-can-eat extravaganza is Jan. 19 from 7:30-11 am at 53 Florence St. in Franklin.

Eggs, pancakes (plain & chocolate chip), French toast, home fries, sausage, corned beef hash, baked beans, and coffee/juice. All-you-can-eat. 

And it's only $10 (just $5 for kids 12 and under). Ten. Freaking. Bucks. For as much food as you want! 

We'll have a fire going to keep you warm and we've even got some free video games the kids can play while you're finishing up eating. Or the parents can play the video games while the kids eat. 

You do you, we don't judge. 

And if there's anything left over, we donate the rest of the food to Gilly's House to help our friends in recovery. 

Good food, good prices, and good deeds. We look forward to serving you on Sunday."

All You Can Eat Breakfast 

"The end of the summer and the start of school is hectic. But you know what shouldn't be chaos?

Eating breakfast on a Sunday morning.

Come to our club at 53 Florence St. in Franklin on Sunday, Sept. 15 from 7:30-11 am and let us cook breakfast for you and your family (or sneak away and come by yourself -- we don't judge).

It's all-you-can-eat eggs, pancakes, French toast, sausage, home fries, corned beef hash, baked beans, and coffee/juice. And better yet, it's CHEAP!

Just $10 for adults and $5 for kids. Yup, that's right. An all-you-can-eat breakfast for a family of four for $30.

And we even have free video games for the kids (and the adults who still fancy themselves kids).

Good food, good people, good prices, and a good time. Give yourself a break and let us treat you to some damn good food!"

Rod & Gun Club: All You Can Eat Breakfast - Sunday, Aug 18

"There's been a lot of division and infighting lately, and it's probably going to get worse before it gets better with November's election. 

But a good breakfast should find everyone in bipartisan agreement! 

So come to 53 Florence St. in Franklin on Aug. 18 from 7:30-11am for an inflation-free chance to reach across the aisle and grab some all-you-can-eat eggs, pancakes, corned beef hash, French toast, home fries, sausage, baked beans, and coffee/juice. 

Adults are just $10 and kids under 12 are only $5. Again, ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT! 

Doesn't matter if you're red or blue, just come hungry and we promise you'll leave happy."
