The Local Scoop

 At Willy's Bar-B-Que, expect great service with a friendly southern smile.  The folks at Willy's are always welcoming and their food speaks for itself.  Something about Willy's that might come as a surprise to most... the fried catfish is amazing!  Yes, that's right, fried catfish at a bar-b-que restaurant.  Take it from me, you'll want to try some.  And you better come hungry, Willy's portions are fit for a king!  Enjoy!

The Local Directions

Located just off of U.S. Hwy-441/23 bypass of Franklin.  

If you're coming from the South (Florida, S.C., GA) take the U.S. 441/23 Bypass of Franklin towards Sylva/Asheville for 2.7 miles.  Here, you'll be at a red light.  To your right, as you approach 2.7 miles, you'll notice the 'Holy Springs Shopping Center.'  This is 'Hyatt Road.'  Take a right here and continue for approx. 100 feet to a left onto 'Cunningham Road' (between Macon Bank & Taco Bell).  Head up the hill for 0.1 mile to a right into Willy's parking area (you'll also notice 'Hampton Inn' just above Willy's). 

If you're coming from the Asheville or I-40 area, you'll need to pick up U.S. 441/23 South towards Franklin/Atlanta.  You need to avoid the first Franklin exit you come to near town (red light across highway).  Instead, continue out the highway for another 0.8 mile to your next red light.  Here, get into the left turn lane at the shopping center.  Continue for approx. 100 feet to a left onto 'Cunningham Road' (between Macon Bank & Taco Bell).  Head up the hill for 0.1 mile to a right into Willy's parking area (you'll also notice 'Hampton Inn' just above Willy's).
