Friendly’s now has a ‘late-night’ menu

The Massachusetts-based diner may no longer have any Boston locations, but the Bay State restaurants still left now have a late-night menu.

Getting an ice cream when those late-night cravings hit just got a little easier — on your wallet, more specifically — with the new Friendly’s late-night value menu.

The Wilbraham-based diner chain announced this week a nighttime menu featuring their popular ice cream, sundaes, and snacks at a slightly lower price than you’ll pay at lunch or dinner. 

The deal starts at 8 p.m. and lasts until closing; for some Massachusetts stores, that could mean only an hour of marked-down munchies, or until 11 p.m. It’s also only available Sunday through Thursday.

Here is what’s on the menu:

  • A double cone or dish for $4
  • A Friend-Z for $5
  • A Fribble or medium sundae for $6 
  • An appetizer or large sundae for $7

The only exclusions to this deal are the Jim Dandy, brownie sundae, wings, and Munchie Mania.

Of course if you live in Boston proper, the closest you’ll get to a late-night meal at Friendly’s is a 45-minute drive to Norwood or South Weymouth, as the last Friendly’s in Boston closed earlier this year. And though more than two dozen Friendly’s are still open across Massachusetts, many restaurants have also closed due to financial hardships and multiple corporate acquisitions.
