It’s the last Captain D’s in Franklin and it has closed.
Located at 1925 Mallory Lane, the signage on the building and roadside have all been removed. The restaurant is still currently listed on the website. This location first opened in June 2001.
A note was placed on the door stating, “This Restaurant is closed. Thank you for your patronage. Please visit us at 3715 Nolensville Pike.”
The closest Captain D’s location is now 3715 Nolensville Pike in Nashville. A second Franklin location at 108 New Highway 96, closed back in 2018 which is now Waldo’s Chicken. You can also visit Captain D’s at 2096 Wall Street, Spring Hill.
The first Captain D’s opened in Donelson, TN in 1969 and was called Mr. D’s. The “D” is the initial of the last name of the co-founder, Ray Danner. The goal then was to serve high-quality, quick-service seafood. Fast forward to over 50 years later, and Captain D’s has grown to almost 600 restaurants in 23 states and several countries overseas.
Good riddance. That place was awful. Also, it’s 50 years, not 40.
U are wrong learn your math it’s 53 years old if u didn’t like it why did u eT it goof ball
Thanks for the catch. We updated it to say 50 years.
There’s one in Dickson, Hwy 70
I’m confused, where is 40 years mentioned anywhere!?? It clearly states ‘over fifty years later’.
I loved this location. It will be missed. 🙁
If this place was anything like the one I visit, You will miss it.
Good food. Hoping the Captain D’s in Spring Hill keeps on truckin’.
The one in spring Hill isn’t the best it went down hill after the last owner Mr. Davis sold it.
The one in Dickson Tn sucks for getting orders correct, the food is ok but you’re lucky if you get what you order!
