“I haven't been to Ben Franklin's in years - since I was in college! Ordered with my boss the other day, online ordering was AWESOME - and we had a friend pick it up! It was delicious! I built my own sandwich and it was made perfectly. My boss and her fiancé ordered salads and they RAVED about how amazing they were (not to mention the portion sizes). Definitely a go to on our lunch rotation!”
