A Cordial Gathering of Diverse Minds

The Franklin Inn Club is a cozy urban oasis where lovers of arts and culture have gathered for meals and camaraderie for more than a century. Over good food and wine, members discuss current events and explore new ideas, hear prominent speakers, and exchange their opinions on the arts, science, law, and politics. It’s a warm and comfortable refuge from fast-paced urban life, where Innmates (as our members call themselves) can spend an hour or two enjoying a leisurely meal and intelligent conversation with friends and guests, or just spend a quiet hour or two reading and relaxing.

It’s modeled after Ben Franklin’s ideal private club: a cordial gathering of diverse minds united in the pursuit of useful ideas and the lively exchange of views. The club’s century-old culture doesn’t tolerate pretension or stodginess. Were he here today, we like to think Ben would feel right at home.
