They have a Crispy Chicken Salad which is amazing!
Friendlys food was good back in the 60's when I was a kid. The tuna salad was well made, a grilled cheese and tomato was cheap and tasty and a Big Beef Cheeseburger Special came on toast which I prefer to a bun. In the 80's, they were my kids' first choice for a meal out - possibly because of the conehead sundae. I do think Hershey's wrecked the concept. Unfortunately, they are few and far between in the South. I have not been in one in 4 years - last was in Myrtle Beach. I did notice they had added beer, but I did not see the Swiss Chocolate Almond Sundae on the menu. I would kill for one right now - a beer or a sundae!
