I love how friendlys looks inside. I love the service and the food is delicious! The location in Bristol ct is awesome! And they always have the cutest decor for the holidays. Right now it's valentines vibe everywhere! You feel the Love!
So, as you may or may not know, yesterday, I went to the Bristol Friendly's as my reward for going 2 months without hitting, swearing, aggression, and/or any kind of physical assault. For my appetizer, I got the sampler platter. Always get the French fries, waffle fries, and chicken fingers. Next, for my main, I got the double all-american cheeseburger with waffle fries. Finally, for my dessert, I got their retro royal banana split. Always get that when you're in Bristol. It's good. Anyhow, the food was great. I did not finish it all, I had part of my leftovers for breakfast today. I would definitely come again. Thank you SO MUCH!
Friendly's, originating from Springfield, Massachusetts, should consider returning to its foundational offerings to reclaim its unique identity in the competitive restaurant landscape. The classic patty melt and the distinctive Watermelon sherbet are examples of menu items that could enhance the brand's appeal and nostalgia. Additionally, leveraging Mr. Cone Head as a mascot could engage younger audiences and differentiate Friendly's from other establishments. By emphasizing these unique elements and refining their overall franchise approach, Friendly's could strengthen its market presence and attract more customers. A focus on what makes them special is essential for standing out in today's dining scene.
I live in Florida and don’t have Friendly’s , whenever I can find one in another state while visiting friends and family I am excited to visit! Keep up the great tradition!
Came here with my daughter in-law and granddaughters and had the best experience. Penny our waitress was fantastic, she is so sweet and very attentive. Give her a raise! Grinch theme for Christmas is so much fun for the kids.
