<p>We are visiting UNC this week and I'd like to take my son somewhere either on campus or maybe on Franklin Street for him to get a bit of a feel for the area. Where would you suggest?</p>
<p>Top of the Hill on the corner of Columbia St. and E. Franklin (100 E. Franklin - 3rd floor)! It’s a Chapel Hill tradition, and if you sit outside you’ll get a great bird’s eye view of Franklin Street. The sweet potato fries with bleu cheese are terrific!</p>
<p>Thanks. We will try Top of the Hill.</p>
<p>Top of the Hill’s food isn’t even really that great in my opinion…</p>
<p>I’d suggest Spanky’s. It’s right across the street from Top O.</p>
<p>Yeah I’ve never actually liked Top O. I eat at buns a lot. If you want SUPER cheap but lovable then Franklin St Pizza and Pasta, Noodles, or Sutton’s are all good. Those are my most frequented places when I’m low on cash.</p>
<p>And finish it off w/ a trip to the Cold Stone Creamery. :)</p>
<p>No no no finish it off with a trip to the YOGURT PUMP! Much cheaper. And awesomer.</p>
<p>PS: Cloying I ate at Buns yesterday for my Easter dinner…please come back so we can get YoPo, thanks.</p>
<p>heather, I salute you. Buns is the best. I was going to suggest it, but I think the original posters have already eaten by now.</p>
<p>I second the recommendation of Spanky’s; great soups and sandwiches and lots of UNC sports memorabilia on the walls. Much better lunch spot than Top O.</p>
<p>Pepper’s Pizza is a Franklin St landmark.</p>
<p>If you are there for dinner and want a nice (and a tad expensive) meal 411 West is very nice and an easy walk.</p>
