The First Annual Franklin Food & Spirits Festival is a celebration of delicious Southern cooking, held right here in downtown Franklin, TN. We decided to create the festival to share our love of delicious Bar-B-Q and southern whiskey with you. We want to bring tasty food and a good time to everyone who attends and we hope that you enjoy this special occasion. Jim 'N Nick's knows good old fashioned southern cooking and we are bringing it to your doorstep with the Southern Food & Spirits Festival. 

Come out and try some Bar-B-Q on May 30th and 31st! Don’t forget the location – downtown Franklin, TN!
