In an age of specialization, Fran's has focused on hamburgers above everything else on the menu. Big toasted buns shelter exceedingly juicy patties, and the resulting creation is priceless yet inexpensive. These prodigious burgers are available in three sizes and come wrapped in wax paper to minimize the amount of grease that makes its way south to your clothing. Complement your beefy hand-held entree with a tasty homemade milkshake and you've got yourself a diet fit for an 18th-century Appalachian fur trapper. Fran's also serves other traditional greasy spoon fare: Come in early for a hearty breakfast of pancakes, ham 'n' eggs and everything else you'd expect. The dine-in experience here can be rather pleasant in its own way, as Fran's is about as laid-back as a hippie on a Sunday afternoon. -- Barrett Brown
