With the Jane Austen Summer Program just within our sights, there’s no better time to start thinking about what you plan on eating while you’re here — and Franklin Street in Chapel Hill has become home to many new restaurants in the past year.
That being said, if you’re in the mood to try out some new food options while attending JASP, we’ve got you covered. Here are six new dining locations that you can find right down the road from all of JASP’s main activities (and a few bonus Franklin Street favorites, too)!
