    One of the better friendlies that's left. Nice and clean inside, super friendly staff, great service, decent food, and friendly's ice cream and Sundays and shakes and fribbles and so much fun.

    Salted caramel popcorn sundae
    Stephanie G.

    I wanted some ice cream one day and looked over the menu and was impressed by some of the sundae offerings. There is a counter if you just want to pick up some ice cream, but I wanted to eat inside so grabbed a table. I wanted to try the salted caramel popcorn sundae with a few modifications (like getting butter pecan) but almonds were not available. In the in person menu, they weren't listed, but they were listed on the website for this location, so that was the only big issue (website is not synced to individual locations). The sundaes are definitely enough to share and came out quickly. For a reasonable price, it was a great dessert and I look forward to more sweet treats in the future.

    Chicken Fajita Quesadilla

    Parking lot is always a plus but when traveling with kids it is spot on. I think Friendly's is underrated. The kids meal with a drink of choice, a meal and their ice cream for 7.99. That is pretty clutch to me. And double that for two kids. You cannot beat that. I got the chicken fajitas quesadilla and it was great too. The veggies were sautéed well and the onions were caramelized. The food came out fast, our server was super sweet. It checked out all boxes. Only minus star was the bathrooms could be cleaned more often-- that's the only con.

    I stopped by Friendly's this evening to get a small/"happy ending" hot fudge sundae from the walk up counter. The last two times my husband and I got sundaes from here, there was very little hot fudge, so tonight I requested that they add a little bit more. I looked at my receipt and noticed that I was charged $0.99 for "a little more" hot fudge! I said something to the guy who took my order and he just kind of looked at me and shrugged his shoulders. I told him the last two times we had gotten sundaes there wasn't much hot fudge on them. He told me that wasn't true. HOW WOULD HE EVEN KNOW THAT?? Ridiculous! We come here because it's close to our home, but the place is really kind of disgusting and dirty inside. The next time we have a craving for ice cream, we may need to go elsewhere.

    It's Friendly's, don't expect too much. The food is fairly good, very good considering the low price. The ice cream is great. Always good for a family night out. This store is relatively clean and looks recently updated. My only complaint is for a quiet business they could do more for customer service. Our server never checked on us. Took a long time to take an ice cream order. And now they are charging for soda refills? Sad face.

    This is a goto from my childhood growing up in NJ - went with a much smaller option though vs full on Reeces pieces Sundae like I got as a kid! Service is always fast and nice here. This location never seems all that busy but it's clean and has that Friendlies feel which is homey for us. A classic goto for a little treat or bite after a game late night - never fails to satisfy!

    Cheese Skirt Burger
    Nick S.

    Went here for dinner tonight with friends. This was my first time here in over a decade. Friendly's is a good place for interesting takes on American fare. I ordered the Cheese Skirt Burger, so named because they out extra cheese on the burger so it goes onto the fryer and gets fried itself. There was thousand island Dressing on it that made it taste even better! I ordered off the Happy Ending Menu, which allowed me to get a free sundae after. I ordered mint chocolate chip ice cream and truly enjoyed it. Friendly's is a great place to go with friends for some good food and great ice cream!

    They really need to invest in a better vent because the strong smell of grease made me nauseous! The restaurant was clean and everyone was polite and welcoming but the stench was just too much! The food here is nothing to write home about but I wasn't expecting anything different. They have a lot of options on the menu, but we stuck to the basics! My burger was way over cooked, fries were hard and the chicken fingers were dry. The only thing that I enjoyed was the ice cream. I ended up taking it to go because I couldn't stand the smell of that place for another second. If you're starving and have no other choice, then this place is ok for a quick bite.

Notable mentions are when I asked for barbecue sauce on the side and since there were two kinds, the waitress gave me one of each. I would definitely come back or visit another branch.

    Stirling Tavern is a casual but polished neighborhood bar and grill with a trendy aesthetic and a…read morecozy ambiance; a menu featuring classic pub favorites elevated a notch above your average bar fare with gourmet ingredients; an innovative and seasonally-updated adult beverage program; and attentive and friendly service. The space on the first floor is divided into a lively bar area with plenty of TVs and a slightly quieter main dining room with comfortable booths and tables. There is also seating on an outdoor terrace on the second floor and a few tables in front of the restaurant on South Street if you're up for dining al fresco. It's a terrific option in Morristown that's sophisticated enough for a date on the outdoor terrace when the weather cooperates or a pre-theater meal in the dining room, yet casual enough for beers and appetizers while watching a game in the bar area. The menu captures the essence of modern American comfort food. Whether you're grabbing the Stirling Burger ($18) -- made from a tasty short rib and brisket blend -- or splurging on the Grilled New York Strip ($48) topped with crabmeat fries, the quality is evident. They are also great with dietary restrictions. Between the various poultry, fish, and vegetarian options on the menu and the kitchen's willingness to make moderate accommodations in any other dish, there's something for everyone. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the service. We recently celebrated my niece's 21st birthday here, and our server made it memorable by honoring her milestone birthday by playfully asking for her ID EVERY SINGLE TIME she ordered a drink. It became a running joke for the night and made the occasion feel extra special. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars for me is that both sides of the main floor can get pretty loud when it's packed and the prices are a bit on the higher side for casual dining. We will definitely be back! PRO TIP #1: Stirling Tavern offers a Happy Hour Monday through Friday between 3pm and 6pm, which features specials on certain cocktails, wines, beers, and light snacks. You must be seated at the bar to take advantage of the promotional pricing. If you enjoy a good Old Fashioned, try the JB ($10), made with Four Roses bourbon, blood orange amaro, orange & angostura bitters. PRO TIP #2: Stirling Tavern does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of paid on-street parking on South Street or Maple Avenue. Bring change or use the ParkMobile app for the meters ($1 per hour) Monday through Saturday from 8am til 6PM; all street meters are free Monday through Saturday after 6pm and all day on Sunday. If you can't find a spot on the street, paid parking is also available in the Morristown Parking Authority Lot #8 (@ 10 Franklin Street) and Vail Parking Area (@ 110 South Street). FREE on-street parking is located on MacCulloch Avenue, just two blocks from Stirling Tavern.

First, the wait was completely worth it. If you get there early, you can probably avoid the line, but even if you can't, don't let that discourage you. Good food is worth a few extra minutes of patience. As someone who pays attention to the details, I always take a quick look inside food trucks and kitchens when I can. I was genuinely impressed by how clean, organized, and professional everything looked. It's clear they take pride in what they do. Now, let's talk about the food. The fries were fresh and clearly made in-house--not the typical pre-packaged fries you find everywhere else. The steak portions were generous (they definitely don't believe in counting pieces), and the combination of flavors and sauces came together perfectly. Every bite was better than the last. By the time I finished, I was already planning my next visit. There are still several items on the menu I want to try, and if they're anything like what I had, my diet may be in serious trouble. Highly recommended!

Multiple people loafing around and waking past but I couldn't get anyone's attention for the salt. I asked someone who said we aren't his table and kept walking.

I said who is that guy in the collared shirt - oh he works here but hasn't started his shift yet. Yea well I just wanted the salt shaker if he bothered to take 2 seconds and see. Or he could have gotten someone else's attention but he didn't, he just blew me off. But the Manager made no attempt to really apologize or ask what she could do. Then our drinks are empty for awhile- none came by to see if we wanted another round. Eventually I'm waving at the bartender who finally comes over and I ask for a 2nd round. Then he forgets about making them and spends 15 mins talking with other employees and doing whatever before I wave at him again. He gives me the nod and The drinks finally come but no limes like the previous round. Honestly I was done - might have stayed longer but with our kids it was time to go. Finally I've included a photo of our view of these diligent employees that are obviously too busy to worry about service or the perception of how things look from a customers point of view. The food wasn't bad but honestly the experience wasn't great. We won't be back.
