Friendly's abruptly closes across Western New York

HAMBURG, N.Y. (WKBW) — Friendly's restaurants across Western New York have served their last cone-head sundaes.

Locations in Jamestown, Blasdell, Amherst and Williamsville shutdown over the weekend.

A note, left on certain locations read, "this location is now closed for business." It continues on to thank patrons for their business over the years, and encourages people to visit other Friendly's locations when they're traveling.

I'm not surprised over this.

We stopped at the Friendly's on Transit near the Eastern Hills mall a few weeks ago.

I'm pretty patient but after 30 minutes of waiting to be seated while most of the booths were empty was a bit much. I saw some old timers waiting to place an order the entire time we were waiting to be seated. We just just left.
