I had not been to friendly's in ages because the ones closest to me or closed. I went with what I always used to get at friendly's which was a patty melt with American cheese instead of Swiss and a chocolate Fribble and it did not disappoint. Just like the old days.

I went to Friendlys tonight with my sister, boyfriend and best friend. I had an appetizer and a meal it was delicious. We drove 35 minutes for friendly’s because sadly, every single friendly’s near me is closed. My server was so so sweet and nice! He really had that Friendly charm and attitude that most employees have. Except for the lady at the counter when first approached the lady asked us if we wanted Dinner or icecream and my friend said Both and she said ‘’yeah ok so dinner.’’ The only downside of this friendly’s experience was there were a few forgetful moments, which was overcharging for things not asked for. As well as forgetting things that were asked for. I just think it is annoying that friendlys charges 0.99 cents for whip cream and cherry when it was not even on the ice cream. The water tasted like soap unfortunately. I do love the restaurant friendlys but honestly friendlys will be gone by the time I’m 22. (I’m 21) but that super melt tho??

My girls and I entered greeted right away. We ordered to go gave us the ice cream paid. Left cant say much didn't stay to eat but maybe next time. It was quiet, clean, inviting. It was a nice day so we took to go so we could walk down main st. Will try again one day. That's why couldn't give 5 stars.

Didn’t get one foot in the door before staff announced that dining room was closed. Arrived at 8:24. Posted sign says closes at 9. This is fine but but when we sighed because of disappointment staff felt the the need to say “See ya!” Very low class. Won’t return.

Went here to try to get just desert with my family. Went inside only to be told the dining room is closed, but they’re open for carry out only. The woman behind the counter was very rude and condescending to my wife. When it was brought up that they’re open until 9 (we were there before then) she again in a condescending tone said yeah, for carry out only. Won’t be going here anymore, at least this location.

We came in last Saturday during a small rush. Service was great. Our waitress Maria was fantastic. She was so great with our small kids. We come in often and the entire staff is always so kind to us and our kids. Jessica and Carly are favorites with our family as well!

Everything was fine. Staff could be more friendly being the name of the restaurant is Friendly’s.

I can say that my family and I won't be back. We walked in and sat ourselves due to no one doing so. When the waitress came to our tables (I am a mother of 5 and my mother was there as well so we occupied 3 booths, & the booths were quite small) she seemed as if she didn't want to wait on us. She then says "did you look over the menu?" Mind you in order for us to have looked over the menus they would have had to have beeqn given to us, which they never were. The server is supposed to give them to you when they seat you. But remember we had to seat ourselves after waiting up front to be seated longer than expected. Not to mention we didn't have not one menu in front of us which was pretty obvious to see. The whole time she acted as if she did not want to wait on us and it seemed as if it were due to a race reason. I hate to say it because everything isn't about race and everyone isn't racist. But I have to say that when the other individuals that were not my color came in they got way better care then we did. They were properly seated and treated like they were welcome. They didnt receive the stares. Secondly, now I've been to numerous restaurants and as a person whom has been to plenty of restaurants a lot of waitresses always remember your order and remember who ordered what but this waitress did not know who ordered whatever they ordered and was passing things to the wrong person and just said whatever about it literally said "whatever". We will not be coming back here,the atmere made us feel very very uncomfortable.Wheelchair accessibility: If you are handicapped like me the aisles where the booths are aren't the best place to try to sit. The back of the restaurant however does have chairs that can be removed from the tables

Oh wow! This visit was a very bad visit. When we arrived my party of 6 were greeted at the front and were seated immediately. We Sat at the table for 10min watching the server work on the other 3 tables that were already there. One table a party of two was paying their check, the other was a party of one, was just eating, and the third table, a party of four just finished their meals and was waiting for their check to pay. The restaurant was obviously no busy. I watched her come out of the back area. She did her transaction of giving bill to the first table. Then she never came back out to check on the other two or us. So we decided to the diner down the road.

They have limited ice cream choices, limited entrees. They don't answer the phone.
