5 Brands. 100+ Restaurants. 20+ Years.

The Franworks name may not be familiar to all, yet we were named one of Canada's Best Places to Work in 2022. We have a powerful portfolio of five iconic brands allowing us to make a meaningful impact in multiple communities across North America. Each of our five brands are unique and provide a memorable experience for our guests:

Original Joe’s Restaurant & Bar
Elephant & Castle Pub & Restaurant
State & Main Kitchen & Bar
Añejo Restaurant
Blanco Cantina
 
At Franworks, we believe in putting our people, our guests, and the communities we serve at the heart of all we do. Taking Care of People is the “not so secret, secret” that connects all the Franworks brands and amazing team members.

We celebrate our team members, provide guests with great care when they walk through our doors and live our values in the communities we operate in. Above all, we want to make a difference wherever we can.

Taking Care of People is at the core of everything we do. We’ve always been about people, and we always will be. We depend on the energy of every team member, in every department and in every restaurant to help us collectively be the best.

At Franworks, we live and breathe our concepts. We understand that our success is due to more than just 'building a restaurant and hoping for the best'. We depend on the energy of every team member, in every department and in every location to help us collectively be 'the best'.
