The White Alligator is one of the latest restaurants to join the 2023 lineup at The Factory at Franklin. According to Williamson Source, the new spot will add some Louisiana flavor to the lineup of incoming restaurants at the historic development.
Behind the new restaurant is Chef Rob Lippincott, a New Orleans native who previously contributed to Southern restaurant The Parish Cafe in Northern California.
While few details are available at this time, The White Alligator will reportedly specialize in Po Boy sandwiches in its various forms. Bringing the Mardi Gras vibes, the restaurant will offer a full bar and serve up New Orleans style specialty cocktails.
The Factory at Franklin currently houses eateries like Five Daughters Bakery and Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream and will soon welcome other new restaurants like Edley’s Bar-B-Que and Two Hands. Formerly a stove manufacturing plant, the 1920s era factory is being redeveloped by Holladay Properties to modernize the classic landmark with retail shops, art studios, and foodie hot spots.
An opening timeline for the new restaurant is unclear at this time but The White Alligator can be found on Instagram. What Now Nashville will continue to update as details become available.
