Friendly’s

Very good place for breakfast
The chicken bacon ranch waffle fries were to die for
Will definitely try to come back here for the ice cream

Nice family, friendly environment but the food was not good and under seasoned. Waitress was nice but service was a little slow.

Server was so rude I couldn’t even believe it! Place looked super dirty. I would avoid this place

My wife and I were driving down restaurant row on Myrtle beach and were overwhelmed with all the restaurants. We spotted a Friendlys that had easy access so we zipped in partially out of frustration and partly because it was handy. This turned out to be a happy accident. We were greeted like we were an old friend and seated right away. Our server, Jordan, was great. She knew the menu inside out, offered thoughtful suggestions, and struck the right balance of attention and giving its time to eat and talk. The honey barbeque burger was one of the best burgers I have ever eaten!

The service here was really good. I have visited the old Friendly’s restaurant in Eustis, FL while there visiting relatives, so I was astounded to find a few of them in Myrtle Beach.
I tried their «Honey BBQ Chicken Supermelt». This was a delicious, melty chicken sandwich. On the side I had some loaded waffle fries. Good fries! But, I did not like the cheese very much. It’s that type of nacho cheese sauce. However, I did enjoy their sweet tea.
I’d suggest trying Friendly’s on N. Kings Highway. It most certainly was «Friendly».

Food is really good. And customer service is on point. Plus quick, will definitely be coming back!

Very disappointed in the experience. Went here for ice cream. Our server seem less than thrilled to be at work. My shake seemed watered down. It certainly wasn’t thick and creamy. Seemed to be more milk than shake.

Food was great! Waitress was great. However the hostess was particularly rude and made it seem like a Herculean task that we asked for a table for two. Waited 20 minutes for a table-didn’t mind because Friendly’s has great food and ice cream, but when the hostess called our name she literally tossed out menus on the table and walked away without saying a word, even when I asked for silverware. She was the most UNFRIENDLY person ever.

The food was not worth the amount charged. The shrimp was harder than rocks. The burgers had no flavor. Waitress was nice but I felt she rushed us to order. They also wouldn’t accept our coupon. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

Liked the location– right across the parking lot from our hotel.
The menu isn’t huge but seems to have pretty good options. I think the food was a bit overpriced at this location but our food was good. Service was good as well.
Not a highlight of our vacation but was convenient and quick.

I went to this place as a guest of the Sheraton. I didn’t know anything about it before going, but I certainly can’t see myself going back. I went in for breakfast on a Saturday morning. I wasn’t pleased with the food and not a fan of the service.

Great food. Good service. Slower than Christmas. Good prices. Would come here again if I lived here.

Went here because my wife and I used to work in one 30 years ago up north. Walked in and was not impressed. Seemed like the carpet was original. But it smelled clean and looked crowded, so those were good signs. Got seated right away, but read some reviews about slow service, and got worried when our server was a no show for 3 minutes. But after that moderately slow start we were off. My wife road our server like a race horse, but the nice girl took it like a champ. Our food was prepared just like we ordered and arrived piping hot. The server checked back every 4 minutes, and gave us our check without needing to be asked. A very nice experience, and at a good price.

Food is good, service was lacking. I’d recommend any of the sandwich melts. Kids mac and cheese is just Kraft in a box. Definitely go for the waffle fries, worth it. Ice cream is really why we came! Great family atmosphere. Oh and they have free Wi-​Fi.

Dinners and ice cream were delicious (in fact that turkey burger I had might be the best I’ve ever had). Service was good despite the place being packed. Price was great as well — we fed four adults and four kids dinner and ice cream for under $ 100. The nostalgia factor, though, put me at 5 stars — there just aren’t many Friendly’s left, and this one is just like the one I grew up with.

Food was good service was ok, there was drama in the form of a back of house worker and his girlfriend having a fight that kept going from the parking lot to the dining room to almost the back of house. This was our lunch and a show who needs the $ 40 dollar dinner shows when you can have Friendly’s for almost half that for the entire family.

Ate here every trip to Myrtle beach so far… not too good this time… it was packed and we were seated quickly but the place is wore out and the food not good. Buns were burnt and nothing on the menu looked great. It was edible but not good…3 people was 40…

IF I COULD GIVE THEM NO STARS!
It was only after driving around north myrtle beach for an hour to find a place to eat, did nostalgia steer us toward Friendly’s. I grew up going there for ice cream. I warned my husband not to expect much In the way of entrees.
I wish that had been enough for him to drive right back out of the parking lot.
The restaurant looked dirty, and that should’ve been the next opportunity to turn around.
Sadly we didn’t.
It took several minutes to be seated. Then quite a bit longer for anyone to come to our table. This was a trend. Which was puzzling, there were no less then 8 – 10 people in uniform wandering around, but only 2 – 3 seemed to be working.
IT TOOK FOREVER FOR OUR ORDER TO BE TAKEN. Once it finally came it was ok. But the tables around us were all experiencing issues. The waitress blamed it on the manager, and gave a curt «sorry» as she was laying down the bill.
I’m guessing that this location depends heavily on transient customers, that are only in town on vacation. Surely no locals patronize this place… More than once.

It seemed like a good idea at the time. In my defense my wife shot down all my ideas for where we should eat. We were tired, hangry and came here by default, thanks to happy childhood memories of watermelon sherbet and pistachio ice cream. Still, it is reasonable to expect fresh and delicious food brought to your table in a timely fashion. Sadly, this location offers none of these things. The menu was boring as f#%*. I got some awful chicken tender thing because I was exhausted from staring at the menu trying to find something that looked appetizing. The dining room was clearly overstaffed for the 3 families that were in there, and it was puzzling how two chicken tender based entrees and a kids pizza could have taken over half hour to move from the freezer our table.
Our meal came with a happy ending sundae and the ice cream was actually as good as I remember (after waiting and waiting). After what we endured, the sundaes WERE a happy ending. I might consider coming back JUST for the ice cream, but never on vacation where time is precious and there as so many places to choose from.

We loved this place. The food was awesome and the desert, well it was fabulous. The staff was very friendly. Even when the table next to use was extremely rude they still maintained a good attitude.
