Well known as Franklin’s FIRST Wine Bar, for 12 years running, JJs Wine Bar is an upscale and quaint hideaway, with a trendy edge! Situated on the corner of Main Street and 2nd Avenue, our building was originally a private residence, and is now listed on the National Historic Registry. Outdoor seating is available on the charming porch that wraps around the side of the building, as well as on the
front courtyard. Our beautiful and spacious patio, looks onto the hustle and bustle of Franklin’s beautiful Main Street, and is dog friendly! Inside, the atmosphere is fun, relaxed, and comfortable; decorated in an eclectic, hip style. The walls are adorned with artwork by local artists, available for purchase. The music is jazzy, hip, and just right for conversation. Through the fabulous technology of wine-dispensing machines, we offer 28 different wines by the glass, dispensed in your choice of sizes - a taste (1 oz), a half-serving (5 oz), or full-serving (8 oz), using a smart-card received from your server. We never keep the same wines in the machines, so the more you visit, the more wines you’ll have the opportunity to taste! For those who prefer to bypass the wine-dispensing machines, we offer many wines by the glass, from our menu; these wines are in addition to, and different than, the wines offered in the dispensers. Or perhaps you would prefer to order a bottle from our extensive bottle list; we have many options! Not looking for wine? We've got you covered! We also offer a selection of premium beers, and a wide variety of liquors/bourbans for your cocktail pleasure! To complement your wine/beverage selections, we offer a delicious array of light, healthy fare, consisting of appetizers, salads, tapas, and decadent desserts. We accept reservations for special events and parties of six or more; see the Private Event Venue page for more info. JJ's is Franklin's hip place to be seen, whether it's to unwind after work, take that special someone for a night out, meet up with a group of friends, or just sit on the wrap-around porch or courtyard, and watch the happenings on Main Street. You can also choose JJs Wine Bar for your private events and business functions. We cater private events and would love to work with you to create the perfect event for your friends, family, or business associates!
