I had the BLT. Even that, is not the way it used to be. Friendly’s one of the last surviving eateries from my childhood. Was going to have the hot fudge sundae, but I didn’t want to be disappointed. Been trying to find all the places that have slowly disappeared. Next on the list, Jack-in-a-Box!!!

this place used to be good but has gone downhill. small portions and a lot of money. very disappointed. wont order from them any more. Missi g food that we paid for. Called up to complain but the manager didnt care. Cole slaw tasted bad and the lettuce was wilted. No wonder they are going out of business.

Arrived with a group of 10 – including 6 young, hyped-up children (and 4 exhausted Moms)- and everything went great!
There was no wait, in fact they even seated us before the whole party arrived instead of making us wait. Our host and server were super “friendly” and on top of all our needs. Everything was clean and organized.
We didn’t have to wait to order, all the food came out quickly and everything was correct and tasted good. I especially love the waffle fries. The Ice cream was delicious of course (and was included in most of our meals too.) The kids got fun themed kids sundaes (3 choices) with cotton candy ice cream and lots of toppings.

The best part was that somehow we even left with still 6 happy kids, AND the reasonable check meant Happy grown-ups.

The whole team at Friendly’s was great and I’d definitely come back here again!

I visited with my family two days ago, and unfortunately the service was extremely disappointing. We arrived around 4:30 in the evening and were the only customers there. As soon as we walked in, two employees immediately went into the kitchen, leaving their nail polish out on one of the tables. A host came out a couple minutes later and seated us.

We ended up switching tables because the first one didn’t have enough space for everyone to sit comfortably. While we were moving, the server stood in the kitchen doorway just staring at us. We tried to explain why we were changing tables, but he didn’t respond at all—just a blank stare.

After we sat down, we waited about 10 minutes for service. The server remained in the kitchen the entire time, still doing his nails and chatting with someone instead of coming to greet us or even acknowledge us. When we finally decided to leave, he walked out to our table with his POS system in hand, but still didn’t say a single word.

We were the only customers in the restaurant, and the lack of professionalism and basic service was shocking. This place used to be one of my favorites growing up, and I was excited for my son to experience it too. Instead, we left disappointed, and honestly I’m still upset about it even two days later.

February update: You can see that EVERY review has a response from Friendly’s except for mine. I also never got a call back from the manager, the person that answered the phone probably never even took my number down.

Every dish is tasty! Portion size is right to the price. Kids friendly and it’s a good deal with the dessert included. Atmosphere is quite relaxed, the bench supports look a bit greasy and wish the serving speed could be a bit faster. Will probably visit again.

portions were very good for the price, fried pickles were really good! cheese skirt burger was lacking some extra veggies but this was easily fixed by asking for some extra pickles and tomatoes. ice cream was good and the portion was large!

Showed up to Friendly’s to grab my pickup order last night 11/28 with my 5-pound chihuahua in my arms silent, calm, bothering no one. Before I could even speak, this woman jumps down my throat saying “no dogs” like she’s been waiting all day to yell at somebody. No greeting, no basic manners, nothing. Just straight attitude in an empty restaurant.
I tell another kind employee I’m just picking up my order, and this woman interrupts to bark at her employee “doesn’t matter, the dog can’t be in the building,” as if she cant tell me herself talking about me like im not 2 feet away. Then when I try to say I just need to look at the ice-cream flavors quick for my mom, she tells me my friend can order… as if my friend magically knows what my mom likes? Like im suppose to order from outside?
Her energy was rude, condescending, and completely unnecessary. I UNDERSTAND policies. What I don’t understand is someone acting like a security guard at the Pentagon over a toy-sized dog. I got rushed out so fast I left with a sad plain vanilla instead of an actual birthday order for my mom.
If she spoke to people like a normal human being, this review wouldn’t exist. I would have nicely put my puppy back in the car, but she chose attitude over professionalism, and it shows. Honestly, I feel bad for the coworkers who have to deal with her every shift. No one that miserable should be the first point of contact. No wonder she’s the only one hiding behind a mask with her nasty attitude.

Love their share platter with 2 mini burgers, waffle fries & sour cream, and cheese mozzarella sticks.
Menu display and items change recently, same as the prices. So make sure you take a look at the menu before going.
Place should be remodel, not just this one’s but maybe all the Friendly’s. The indoor dining area it’s pretty old, dark and gives you sad vibes. Even though, the waiters put a huge smile on them to attend and serve you.

Been going here my whole life and while some visits left a little to be desired, those times are heavily outweighed by the positive experiences. Love the staff here most of all, very kind and welcoming, doing what they can to make it a pleasant experience.
