"My
husband and I fell in love with Merridee's
and visit there each time we are in Franklin
visiting family. The good news is we are
now moving to Franklin. We are excited that
Merridee's will become one of our frequent
stops.
The food is great, the atmosphere is warm and cozy
and the staff is friendly. What more can one ask
for."

"I
first heard about you on The Food Network
Channel. They were telling your story about
Merridee's and it looked so good that we
had to come and find you. We were not disappointed.
You are not very far from our home in Huntsville,
Alabama. We always stop by on our way to
Nashville. I come from a long line of good
southern cooks, but your chicken salad sandwich
is the best we've ever eaten. We get it every
time we come. But I can never decide on just
one dessert. Every thing is so good. But
I absolutely love your pecan pie!! YUMMO!
We like the atmosphere with the brick walls,
quilts on the walls and baskets hanging from
the ceiling. Very cute place. We never have
to wait very long for our food either! But
sometimes it's very crowded."
Thanks so much!

"Greetings.
My husband and I were travelling to Binghamton,
AL to visit our daughter-in-law's family.
By a serendipitous decision, standing on
the corner, one way was the deli and we headed
the other way, to your bakery. We had the
best lunch, sandwiches, pie. In my fifty
years I have never had... a drum roll please...
chicken salad sandwich!!!!!!!! I now dream
about your sandwich, tasted another after
yours and it does not compare. I did tell
one of your staff my shocking revelation,
even my husband hadn't realized I never had
a chicken salad sandwich. Is the recipe in
your cookbook? Also for the snicker doodle
cookies. I bought several bags of cookies
for my southern hosts and they raved about
them. Nothing is worse than craving food
and knowing I may never pass your way again,
sincerly snicker doodled."

"When
I gave birth to my first baby this past year,
a family member sent us a gift basket from
Merridee's. I literally lived off that basket
while I was in the hospital. The Viking sticks
were amazing. I was so hungry and I would
get up in the middle of the night to eat
them. They were so hearty and healthy too!
I have already requested that a Merridee's
gift basket be present at the birth of any
other children we have. It was also perfect
because we had some delicious treats to share
with all of our visitors.
Thank you. Merridee's!"

"I
was raised in Arrington and have loved Meridee's
since you opened. My mom and I currently
live in Kentucky and stop for lunch almost
every time we come home! We especially love
the chicken salad and Viking Bread, and I
always leave with one of your huge mint brownies
- it takes all day to eat. Looking forward
to seeing you again in September!"

"I
was heading south this weekend on a roadtrip
with one goal. I wanted to eat at places
that I could not duplicate at home. I wanted
to make the trip more memorable by avoiding
the chains and typical roadtrip fare. Thankfully
I stumbled into Franklin as I heard of the
eateries and it was pouring outside. I was lucky
enough to find a spot close by so we walked into
a warm inviting atmosphere where I was greeted
by a hard decision... "what to order?" I
chose a breakfast braid and my wife had biscuits
and gravy and a coffee. What a place to get in
out of the rain and enjoy a nice breakfast. On
my next trip on I-65 south I will be sure to stop
in again and try this one of a kind treasure!"
Thanks for the fun and food!

"My
brother, sister-in-law, and many friends
live in Franklin. When we visit, we go straight
from the airport to Merridee's. When they
visit us they always bring goodies from Merridee's.
What a fun location, incredible atmosphere,
and of course-GREAT FOOD! We have had many
fun memories and we can't wait to return."
Thanks for the fun and food!

"My
in-laws used to live in Franklin and introduced
us to Merridee's on our first visit. They
have since retired to Mississippi and our
trips to visit now, we always take the time
to go by and pick up some cinnamon rolls
to eat on the road. Usually we stop on the
way down and the way up! It's worth the extra
road time!
Thank you, Thank you."

"I
have just returned to Oak Park. My stay in
Tennessee was longer than expected due to
the illness of my mother. She is much better.
Your delightful breads made each morning's
meal something to look forward to. Good luck
with your online plans. See you in May."

"The
first time I walked into Merridee's, smelled
the cinnamon and breads, and saw what was
going on, I said to myself, ' This feels
like home.' And Merridee's continues to feel
that way."

"Having
seen your Bakery on The Best of,
I made it a point last week, of stopping
in (I was in Clarksville visiting my daughter
and she LOVES Franklin) We enjoyed lunch
(chicken salad sandwiches) and took home
your Cinnamon/Raisin bread, plus 2 loaves
of Oatmeal bread AND cookbooks - enjoyed
all. Jesse told us that your website was
scheduled to be "up" shortly, so
have been checking frequently. Glad to see
you and hope to be ordering soon. You have
a very enjoyable establishment and wonderful
food products. Thank you for fresh baked
Everything."
