The Return of a Legend: Saffire at The Factory
Dust off your winter blues and join the Nashville Ski Club for our February Gastronomic Gallivant! We’re heading to the historic Factory at Franklin to visit a local legend: Saffire.
After a seven-year hiatus, Saffire returned in 2024 to reclaim its crown as Franklin’s premier "neighborhood upscale" destination. Known for its cozy, vibrant ambiance and the iconic 300-year-old wooden bar, Saffire offers the perfect backdrop for a mid-winter get-together with friends.
THE CUISINE
Saffire specializes in "Southern Meets Creative." Under the guidance of Tom Morales (the visionary behind Acme Feed & Seed and The Southern), the menu blends classic comfort with refined, globally-inspired twists.
Member Favorites & Standout Dishes:
-
To Start: The mandatory Saffire Steak Biscuits (Bleu cheese biscuits with tenderloin) or the Gumbo Ya Ya.
-
The Classics: The Legendary Chicken Fried Chicken (with white cheddar mac-n-cheese and collard greens) or the Creole Shrimp & Grits.
-
From the Wood-Fire: Peach Glazed Pork Chop or the house-rubbed Slow Smoked Prime Rib.
