college park gem. if you are in the college park/hyattsville area and are not willing to head into the district, do not fear. you can still find a great dinner with an amazing beer right down the road. franklin's brews their own beer (which is fabulous; try the sampler!), which is enough reason tolovea restaurant. but not just that; they also have tasty food for whatever you are looking for. their specials are not that special though, i would just stick with something on the menu. if you have a chance afterward, stop off in the quirky gift shop/liquor store!
