I don’t believe that Friendly’s can survive. I was last in one in rural Massachusetts about 20 years ago and it was terrible. There is much better ice cream and food available elsewhere.
All the ice cream shops I've instinctively enjoyed over many years in many places were locally owned. I could never feel the same vibe at Friendly's or Perkins, despite their positive traits and good memories people have of them. Friendly's is an example of expansionism at the cost of personality, in my opinion. I shan't miss them.
I was really glad I got to go to Friendly's a year ago. I hadn't been in years. It didn't disappoint. Service was quick and ice cream was very large. If I had one near me, I would go regularly.
