Culture 828

Описание: Step inside Culture, the newest brick-and-mortar concept from the minds behind the beloved Strange Trip Food Truck, and discover a dining experience rooted in community, craftsmanship, and culture.

In this video, we sit down with the team to discuss how Culture got its name, from the sourdough cultures used in their kitchen to the intentional culture they’re creating with their staff and the Franklin, NC, community. What emerges is a space that feels both familiar and elevated, a place where a small mountain town can feel like a big-city dining destination.

From house-made sourdough pizza, fresh pasta, focaccia, and bread service with cultured butter, to a thoughtfully curated aperitivo bar featuring spritzes, Negronis, amari, vermouth, and Prosecco on tap, every detail is designed for connection and experience. Enjoy indoor dining, a lounge atmosphere, and an inviting outdoor patio perfect for gathering with friends.

We also meet Executive Chef Josh Oakley, whose culinary journey spans hospitality, winemaking, brewing, and years of hands-on experience. Chef Josh shares his vision for a menu that’s creative but approachable, scratch-made pastas, house-ground sausages, Korean-inspired wings, ultra-fresh seafood, and what he confidently calls the best burger in town.

This is more than a restaurant, it’s a celebration of local flavor, intentional living, and the vibrant culture of Franklin, North Carolina.
