Note: The line does get very long, especially after dinner hours, but it's worth the wait and usually goes down fast.

The kids menu is amazing and they have several items to entertain kids like an activity sheet and spoons that change color. There are so many offerings and specials for adults. The ice creams and toppings are all delicious. I even got a lobster roll as a take out item for my mom and she loved it! The fried ravioli wasn't all that fried but the onion rings, fries and chicken tenders were great! I chose a sort of grilled cheese fish sandwich that was very tasty. My bill was so reasonable that I over tipped because servers don't make as much when the prices are low. Easy parking and access. Now the a/c was out in mid July but they had fans that seemed to do the job. Although that's something that should be temporary. I miss having more Friendlys around. Good food, good prices, good service. Only the lack of a/c took a star from this review.

Sometimes, dinner is not about spectacle. It is not about foie gras or molecular gastronomy or…read moreservers who wear bow ties like they are carrying the weight of the world. Sometimes, dinner is about crossing the street from your hotel in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and landing in a red-and-white booth at Friendly's with your two sons, both of whom are still young enough to find joy in whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles. My youngest had the Friendly Frank. A hot dog by any other name, but served with pride and eaten without complaint. It was fine. It filled the boy and that is what food is supposed to do at minimum. My oldest ordered the Clam Strip platter. What he got instead, at first, was a fried shrimp platter. A mistake. But one corrected so quickly and so kindly by our waitress Jackie that it barely registered as an inconvenience. Jackie, by the way, was a star. Friendly in the way Friendly's dreams of being. Personable. Efficient. She moved like someone who knew what they were doing and liked doing it. That is rarer than it should be. As for me, I had the boneless wings with something called "Friendly Sauce." Jackie warned me in advance, said it tasted like Chick-Fil-A sauce. She was right. It was tangy and sweet and tasted like something designed in a lab for mass appeal. The wings themselvs were a bit on the small side, more winglet than wing, but they were cooked well and carried the sauce like proud little vehicles of flavor. Dessert is where Friendly's remembers what it is. I had the peanut butter sundae and it was lovely. A simple thing done right. The kind of dessert that doesn't try too hard but still gets the job done. My sons each had Happy Ending sundaes, which they devoured like cartoon wolves. There were smiles. There was laughter. There was chocolate syrup on the table. Everything made sense for a little while. Four stars. Not because the food was perfect. It wasn't. But because the service was warm, the company was better, and the whole experience felt like a scene from a life well lived. We walked back across the street full and content.

If you're considering Penny's for a wedding or event, I can't recommend them enough. It was easily one of our favorite additions to the reception and such a hit with our guests.

When he got home, he saw his mint chocolate chip ice cream and a pint of vanilla with a note at the bottom saying, "out of chocolate cake batter, sorry!" I'm not pressed about being out of a flavor, but why not say something when he was picking it up and asking what flavor we would like instead of picking for us?? We don't pay for you to pick our ice cream flavor. The free pint voucher is nice, but we would have rather had a choice in our ice cream tonight. Very bummed. Please train your staff better.

It was so light and refreshing, it almost tasted like a sherbet. It was really yummy! I will definitely make a point to swing by the next time I'm in the area to try some other flavors.

There was a nice variety of frozen dessert options to choose from. My only issue was some confusion around the labeling. Although the place is called Sweet Frog Premium Frozen Yogurt, several flavors were labeled as ice cream. Since I can have frozen yogurt but not ice cream, it made me hesitant to try anything that might contain dairy because I didn't want to risk getting sick. I do appreciate that flavors were clearly labeled if they contained milk, and there were a few non-dairy options available, which was reassuring.
