What R-davan doesn't like about Franklin Fountain:
Overrated! The ice cream and milkshake is really simple and the same as any other ice cream shops! I?ve had much more better and more delicious local ice creams in other cities and places. I like the indoor decoration however there is no room to sit inside and you have to wait outside to grab and go. Anyway, really expensive for its quality and tastes! View all feedback. What Tom Mayer likes about Franklin Fountain:
