Reviews for Ben Franklin Bistro in Clinton, MO
Fantastic food! Kind staff! The best ice cream!
Had lunch here today. Sandwiches were good but took awhile to be served. Came with basic chips. It was very smokey inside,... coming from the kitchen area, no doubt. Prices seemed fair and service was decent. Read more
Wonderful restaurant, great decor and the food excellent. Interesting names for their sandwiches. The Ruben was nicely put... together and scrumptious. The chicken wrap was paired with olives, red peppers great combination with greens and chipotleranch. The corned beef had good flavor, the chicken was moist. Read more
Like stepping back in time to much simpler days. this is the cutest little bistro I've ever seen. Not a very large breakfast... selection however, what they have is great. They have great selection for lunch including a huge variety of sandwiches. Thebistro is also a cute little antique shop. The service is great, staff very friendly and welcoming. Would have given 5 stars ifthey were a little more able to cater to gluten free needs. Not the idea restaurant for gluten allergies. Read more
We come to Clinton periodically for our children?s sporting events and often look for local establishments to try out. I?m happy... this bistro was open at 1pm on a Saturday. This place had something for everyone, including my insanely particular daughter. Ienjoyed the building, it maintains a lot of its historic charm. It is quite spacious, and the tables are spaced quite far apart,so you definitely won?t be crowded or bumped into. The sandwiches got good reviews from our party of four, the salad was ratedquite high by the aforementioned picky daughter. I guess the only drawbacks were the fact they were out of several things, andran out of soft drinks so we never got refills? and weren?t really offered an alternative or comped for any, but whatever. Thefood was better than expected and was delivered promptly despite the staff seeming somewhat unprepared for the rush of peoplearriving just before close. I?d definitely come back. I?d like to try those burgers. Read more
In one word: Delicious! Many wonderful sandwiches to choose from. I would give five stars except I like french fries with my... meal which are not on the menu. Still, probably the best selection of specialty sandwiches in Clinton. Try it. You won't regretit! Read more
From out of town. I was overly satisfied with the breakfast. It was suprisingly ordinary, but was a perfect meal for the start... of the day. It was well balanced and excellent in taste. For a small time restaraunt, it is very good. The only criticism I canmake is the organization of the staff. They were nice and very pleasant, but is obvious they are not like a chain ofrestaraunts. To each his own, but this place was overall very good Read more
It was good food and good service. Entering this restaurant was like stepping back in time. It is an older, historical type... setting. The menu items are named after historical people and prsidents. The portions are nice sizes. The prices are good. Thefood presentation was nice. Parking was not a problem. The area is safe. Read more
