We drove 35 minutes to get there since, unfortunately, every Friendly's near my home has closed down. My server was incredibly sweet and friendly, embodying the typical Friendly's charm that many employees have. However, when we first approached the counter, the lady there asked if we wanted dinner or ice cream, and when my friend said both, she replied, “Yeah, okay, so dinner.” The only downside to this visit was a few forgetful moments, like being overcharged for items we didn’t order and some requests not being fulfilled. It’s a bit frustrating that Friendly's charges 99 cents for whipped cream and a cherry when they’re not even included with the ice cream. Additionally, the water had an unfortunate soapy taste. I really do love Friendly's, but honestly, I worry that it might not be around by the time I turn 22 (I'm currently 21). But that Super Melt, though?

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.

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