Friendly's

So my nephew’s birthday I always take him somewhere of his choice. No matter the cost or location. He ask to go to Friendly’s because he loves the burgers, chicken fingers and ice cream/ milkshake. When we get to the eatery we wait, for over five minutes two employees a couple of times, walk past never greet us matter of fact never acknowledged our presence! They were not busy as there were only three tables with customers eating, they had already been served. Finally we ask can we be seated. We are greeted not warm but very cold. We are walked past all the other tables to the back corner of the restaurant. I was thinking maybe because of social distance we are placed there. But I look around everyone else is placed at tables back to back as more customers come in they were all placed up front and close together. As a black woman/family and the others were non black, I took offense to this situation. Our food arrived later than others, the food temperature was not up to proper temperature. The burgers were over cooked ( which we never were asked how we wanted them). Fries were cold, the soup was lukewarm. The shakes were perfect. The fish and chips cold. I was very disappointed at this visit. Despite the service we still left 20% tip. Because that’s how was raised. To be kind, thoughtful generous and treat ppl the way you want to be treated . And just because you were treated unfair you don’t have to reciprocate the same behaviors that was given. Lavish them with kindness.

It was great, the waitress was great and kind and saw to that we got the food we wanted to eat cooks the way we wanted it. They have Great burgers and if you love fish try the fried Cod with fries and cold slaw. My favorite. Don't forget to tip the waitress and tell them Stan Arrington referred you.

We were so excited to bring our kids here. We went in and stood for what seemed like a while to be seated. Meanwhile the restaurant had hardly anyone there. When we finally got seated the restaurant didn’t seem to be vacuumed in a long time. The food was mediocre for the high prices. My sons kids meal had a microwave hot dog and looked like watery Easy Mac. The hostess and one other waitress is all we saw and the hostess was doing everything from what I could tell. We are very disappointed for the experience of the restaurant. Our waitress seemed nice but over worked because she was doing everything. We will NOT be going there again.
