Franco’s Family Restaurant in Madison, Indiana
We asked Madison, Indiana locals for a good breakfast spot and they quickly steered us to Franco’s Family Restaurant.
As a local mom and pop Italian restaurant, we couldn’t wait to see how they handled breakfast given the high praise we heard!

Now this was a comfortable place. We sat right by the front window so we could see the bustling Indiana town while dining. That is a very pleasant spot to welcome in the morning.
Pastries, baked just that day, were certainly a must! We would never have thought that Franco’s would make their own pastries! How awesome is that?
They were flaky and oh so delicious! Nothing tastes better on a chilly morning than a cup of coffee with a fresh pastry.

But there’s more than pastry on the menu at Franco’s Family Restaurant! Serving breakfast and dinner, this Italian restaurant specializes in homemade items that you wouldn’t necessarily expect.
Besides homemade baked goods like Bear Claws, Apple or Cherry Turnovers, Muffins, and Danish in an assortment of flavors, they also serve a homemade white or wheat Ciabatta bread, French baguette, and croissant!
I can tell you first hand that the breakfast sandwiches served on homemade Ciabatta bread are absolutely amazing! Hubs went for the Meditteranean sandwich: Mushrooms, Spinach, Sun Dried Tomatoes, Egg, and Deli Sliced ham. I kept it simple with Ham, Egg, and Cheese on homemade Wheat Ciabatta. My word. That is excellent!
