Harrisburg is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Harrisburg peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Brings me back to my childhood & teenage years growing up in MA Friendly’s was a good too all the time. The food was really good hot clean and not overcooked or sloppy. Peanut butter sauce still taste the same and honey mustard super nostalgic for me

Food was good. Got a piece of bad chicken in my chicken sandwich. But thats normal. Hostess also only gave us breakfast menus after noon. So we had to ask for lunch menus. Server was very nice and busting it out with a lot of tables. Bathroom light in ladies room needs fixed. It flickers a lot and is a seizure risk.

I don't think the place was bad food was great. I can tell that there may have been some racial profiling. It wasn't until I tipped that the lady seemed nicer. Do better people not everyone is a lousy tipper and I promise its not just one race either!

I really wanted to love this place, and to be fair—the food absolutely delivered. Everything we ordered was flavorful, fresh, and clearly well-prepared. The kitchen is doing an amazing job. Unfortunately, the service was a completely different story. Our server was inattentive and it also felt like tables with children were getting most of the attention, while me and my boyfriend were getting overlooked At one point, I had gotten a refill of the incorrect drink. There was no real acknowledgment because the server did not return. And he had offered the cherry that fell off my sundae onto the tray

Had breakfast at this location on 12/7. Me my wife and are two small children went there because me and the Mrs wanted to try breakfast. When we walked it in nobody was really there so we waited a few minutes and someone came up. Not a good morning or how you are doing just how many and she seated us at a both. Waitress name was Cindy she seemed a bit annoyed with us. She came back a few minutes later took out or brought our drinks but did not try to make conversation with us. She went to her other tables chatted then up but stayed away form ours. My daughter got pancakes and asked for sausage but she got bacon and we didn’t bother speaking up because Cindy seemed like she didn’t want to deal with us. Half way through the meal she just threw the check at our table while we were eating. She went got up to cash out she said she take the money and cash us out asked if we needed change I told her no. Minute I gave her a tip she changed her attitude. But after this whole experience I would not recommend anyone to go there. We’re from out of town and come to Harrisburg/ Hershey park once in a great while and go me we were just a burden even being in that place. If I could give zero stars
