With a heavy heart, we have to share that after 7 incredible years, John Franklin’s will be closing its doors.

Despite our best efforts, unfortunately this is completely out of our hands. We’re incredibly proud of our team, and all those who have been a part of it in these past 7 years. Through such difficult times, economically, during the pandemic, and the lack of shows due to the RAAC concrete, we are so proud to have continually remained profitable, and kept what feels like a family, together.

A massive thank you to our amazing customers who have made John Franklin’s a place filled with laughter and happy memories. We’re sad to say goodbye, but incredibly grateful for the journey.

In the meantime, come and raise a glass (and savour some cheese!) with us one last time 🥂

Last day of service will be the 27th of JULY! ☹️

Good News! ⚠️
After our short closure for surveys in the Royal & Derngate buildings, we are relieved to share that John Franklin’s does not contain RAAC concrete. This means we will be safely reopening tomorrow and running our opening hours as usual 🥂
Thank you for everyone’s support and understanding during this uncertain time, and we can’t wait to have you all back with us!
Thanks! ~ the JF team 😊🧀 🍻
