NEW Friendly’s Right Outside Disney World | Nostalgic Review on Vineland Avenue
During the midst of the Great Depression, two brothers opened an Ice Cream Shop they affectionately called Friendly. Their goal was to create a comforting atmosphere to complement the comfort food they served. Nearly a century later this restaurant, now called Friendly’s, evolved into a nostalgic staple of a classic millennial childhood on Long Island, NY.
As former New Yorkers living in Florida, we felt inclined to stop by Friendly’s brand new location right outside Walt Disney World to see if the cuisine here is as comforting as we remember. This new location is near the well-known Vineland outlets and adjacent to Disney Springs. We can confirm that mini mozzarella sticks are back! See ...

I like your videos. If i could subscribe to your channel for free, im in.
I’m eating Rita’s yet I’m drooling over the mint sundae. I also have the nostalgic feeling towards that ice cream.
I totally love your food crawls i love dunkin but i must say sometimes they lack quality Thank you ❤
It’s sad bc when they’re good they are really good, but they are so inconsistent.
@@ThemeParkFoodies agreed ❤️
Great tour thank you. You should see this mall now its amazing so much food open so much pora was really good I'm waiting on sesame street area to open I feel even though its like 20 mins away I'm on vacation that food looks so yummy and actually new jersey has some if the best pizza if you ever been to jersey shore 🍕 ❤
That’s so cool that you’re so close! I used to go to the Jersey Shore back in the day 😊 Point Pleasant & Jenkinsons 🕶️
@ThemeParkFoodies oh really wow yes I use to go to wildwood the most but past 20 years point pleasant Jenkinsons was my home. Live in toms river bear seaside few years. Yes nice to near dream mall but I'd rather live close to disney lol. If you guess ever come this way to the dream mall some day we'd live to say hi or maybe we'll pass each other in disney. Who know ❤️
This was awesome I shall be making these too so I Don't need to go to nyc harry potter for my fix lol and Frank's adorable I always has dachshunds I lost Mary in Sept tho anyway Sam I have ocd too nothing wrong with it ❤ ..God bless
They are so good- especially the hot butter beer!! Frank is the best. I’m so sorry about Mary 😭
@@ThemeParkFoodies thank you ❤️
Fried mozz and ice cream? Sounds good!
can’t go wrong!
friendly's🥰! jim dandys fribble ahhh childhood memories
The best memories!
@@ThemeParkFoodies absolutely 😀
There’s still one on 101 in Medford, NY
Awesome!
Holy cow, I haven’t been to a Friendly’s since college! 🤩 We had two locations very near my campus in New Jersey. Didn’t realize that they were still opening new locations! You hit the nail right on the head, the food is generally very mid, but the experience is crazy nostalgic. Glad you had a good experience with mostly high numbers! Food is definitely interpersonal. Mini mozz sticks for the win!!! Great video you guys, hope you’re doing well ✨
We were so surprised to hear they are still opening up spots, we definitely assumed the opposite was happening 😂 It’s far from gourmet but the nostalgia factor is still there ✨ We hope the mini mozz sticks never go away! Thanks for watching, it was nice to hear from y’all and hope you’re gearing up for all the spooks 👻
Soo cool ❤
This was before we started vlogging, I wish we were vlogging then!
@ThemeParkFoodies well you guys are now and have many adventures too go on and we your fans are so grateful you opened up for us to join I honestly look forward to you guys the most brings me relax peace and joy honestly 😊
Oh wow thank you gor sharing your both beautiful people Sam so stunning ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love that place ❤
It’s so fun!!
Cool but words acting or not a liitle harsh lol ❤
Felt a little too real 😂
I love this its beautiful ❤
We miss the dream lights so much!
@ThemeParkFoodies did you guys ever get to see the Osborne lights at mgm then omg do gorgeous i looked forward to it every year. This is beautiful as well ❤️
Wow this was totally cool thanks for sharing btw your old hone was adorable ❤
Thank you, it was a very homey apartment :)
How lucky. Thank you ❤
It was great to have something so local!
Looks fun but I'm a whimp ❤
I don’t blame you, I didn’t go on it 😂
@@ThemeParkFoodies 😀
Adorable ❤
I had to comment after laughing at you two! “When you are coming here, you are agreeing to today not being a great day for your health,” Sam saying she could feel grease coming out of her pores, and Jay giving the dire warning of “don’t eat the seafood here.” 😄 I thoroughly enjoyed every one of your recent “best Disney restaurant” series, but then you follow that up with a visit to Friendly’s. 💗 Love what you two do. Don’t ever change. And YES to that spectacular Sundae Jay had. I always admire the elegance the chefs display at your previous Disney restaurant visits as seen in the dainty desserts and carefully placed cheese, but I’ll take a cheese pull by Sam and melty fishbowl-size sundae any day. 10 out of 10 all around!
Haha I was wondering if the grease was visible 😂 We had a wonderful time filming that last series, but sometimes you really just need a casual comfort meal. We also know how expensive Disney is and want to show some more affordable options for families visiting. We had a blast filming this and it brought back so many wonderful memories. It was especially nice to read all the comments that were echoing a lot of our sentiments. Thanks so much for taking time to leave such a thoughtful comment 😊
As always, great video guys!! I never had heard of Friendly’s until I married my wife who is from Pa. We visited it every time we were up from SC, but it closed down like 5 years ago. I may have to stop by Friendly’s next week, while we are in Disney for my Birthday. The grilled cheese looks delicious!
I can attest that grilled cheese is where it’s at!!! The crunch almost sounded like I added in a sound effect. Hope you have a great birthday trip 😊
I live on the west coast so I've never seen friendly's but it seems like a denny's lunch vibe, sometimes you need some fried food and ice-cream Love your vids!
Thank you 😊 It is similar to Denny’s menu but with really delicious ice cream! Comfort food is a must in these trying times 😂
Thinking NY is the best pizza. No New York is the cheapest pizza and the most pizza. Everyone knows CT has the BEST pizza
Taste is subjective and we respect your opinion.
Long Islander here too - Carvel and Friendly’s were staples of childhood summers (more so Carvel for us, but we did indulge in some Friendly’s sundaes too!)
Yessss flying saucers & bogo sundaes on Wednesdays I believe ?
This restaurant bring back memories and decor and also the food 😍 😋
Glad it did! We felt the same way 😊
Love Earl of Sandwich
it’s a great spot with reasonable prices
Friendly's is my childhood (grew up in New England). It was THE place to go after the game, concert, recital etc. to celebrate. Love their ice cream. I guess it's true that everything comes back around in time. Will have to swing by for nostalgic purposes. Did you happen to notice if they have any half gallon containers of ice cream for sale to take home?
Yes!!! My elementary school was across the street and everybody would go to Friendly's after the school concerts- it was the place to be. I'd give anything to relive those times. I don't recall seeing the take home containers.
Agreed, great cheese pull 🧀
The pull is important.
In Upstate NY we also grew up with Friendy's. Our last location closed prob 5 yrs ago, but we haven't been in at least 15 yrs. Jay's sundae is exactly what I would want, that PB sauce is perfection. Nostalgia is always so comforting ❤ Love this vlog.
I was dying laughing when his sundae was melting and overflowing the cup. It was such a feel good time!
How did I not know you are from Long Island?! 🤦🏻♀️ I knew I liked you guys ha! I’m in Smithtown - they closed all but one Friendlies near me but it’s still hanging on and we still go! That honey bbq melt OMG 😆 great video guys 😊 Lovin the shirt Jay chose to wear
Both of us LI born & raised- we moved to Florida only 2 years ago :) That's great you can still go, I never want to see the day when they are no longer around. Thanks so much for watching!
Not from LI, but Mass Our tiny mall had two Friendly’s in it. There were so many on the Cape. But the last one closed in 2020, and is now a bank. Reese’s (cup or pieces) sundaes were the best.
My childhood Friendly's is a bank too :( Reese's sundaes are always a good idea!
I have so many memories of Friendjys in Westchester County NY in the 1990s! The Peanut Butter Cup Sundae and the turkey super melt was my order! The Fribble! So fun!! 🎉
I'm so happy Friendly's resonates with so many of us!
Gideon's by a long shot!
East islip Long Island! So Nostalgic ❤
Ahhh that's awesome!
Fellow Long Islander here! There's still a Friendly's open in East Meadow! :) Happy to have stumbled upon your channel!
Ahhh we used to live in Bethpage, not far from there. Glad it's still around and happy you found us!
I am old and from New Jersey where I can’t find a friendlys anymore. I loved the food when I was young. After a movie night the place to go
It was a staple for us growing up!!
Love this! I worked one summer at the Friendly’s on Jericho Tpke opposite Jericho Terrace. I also went to the same college as the founders of Friendly’s. Loved the Fishamajig. So so food and good memories.
That's so cool!!! It's such a nostalgic place and I am so glad they stood the test of time.
So happy to hear Friendleys lives on in Orlando! We still have a few left up here in Pennsylvania!! Great review!!!!
Glad they're still in PA!! Thanks for watching :)
Hey, great video! We loved Narcoosee’s last year. We really enjoyed Toledo at Coronado Springs resort, it was superb quality food and service, highly recommended
Toledo is great, the special they have for 2 with the steak is a great value and it's such a beautiful restaurant. We did a video on it a few months ago.
I too live in Florida...I grew up on Long Island and my childhood Friendly's was on Larkfield Road in East Northport. Yeah it's comfort food for sure.
Glad we can still enjoy our childhood faves here in FL!!!
@@BaileyLovesMangos oh my gosh I’m in Smithtown but grew up in kings park and I was always hanging in East Northport! We use to be neighbors lol
Oh my how cool thank you guys Friendly's is on of my favorites here in nj too always there they did close 2 down but we still have a few.. foods ok ice creams yummy great review guys so happy lol I think well go this weekend my to go too is also turkey melt and that sundae... chocolate chip mint was my fav flavor too. I have the shoes to match Jay's shirt from disney Sam I must say your beautiful ❤
Glad they're still around by you! It's still such a fun spot and brings back so many memories. Thank you Alessandra- you're so sweet.
@@ThemeParkFoodies ♥️
Yes I agree Sam is gorgeous 😊
Honey bbq chicken super melt and the fries will always be a craving for me and there’s no more friendlys anymore near me 😢
Oh man that stinks- you gotta come to Orlando then!
Hi Sam and Jay! There’s nothing better than nostalgic comfort food 😋 Great review as always 👍🏻
Thanks so much- it was such a fun review to do :)
