Old school place but still good food they have really good omelettes they also have a place you can rent a room with swimming pool

Used to be so good, waitress takes forever and then acts like an inconvenience to have to wait on you. Food was lukewarm and now I'm nauseated and sick to my stomach. Now almost 48 hours after eating there I am recovering from what I believe was food poisoning. Since this was the only thing I ate that day it was from there. Disgusting read more

Great hometown restaurant. Stacey and her staff are the best! Hot fresh food served by a friendly and attentive staff. Try it. You won't be disappointed. read more

This place is just a gold old local diner. It is full of regulars who you can tell have been meeting up here for years. Heck, I have been eating here for years, decades even! Haven't lived in Altus since the 70's but visit the folks regularly and always visit the Friendship for breakfast and sometimes the buffet. Staff is friendly, breakfast is breakfast but the buffet, in my experience is always great. We had a mini-family reunion there last weekend and took a 6 top for over 2 hours. Coffe cups, and tea glasses filled regularly with a smile. This place just feels like home to me. read more

To start off, I Do Not recommend eating here especially if you have eight or more people in your family. Our waitress had less personality than a sack of flour. She acted annoyed any time she was at the table and just all around rude the entire time. We had several empty cups on our table for more than ten minutes before they were refilled, if they got refilled. There were only three tables of people, there's no reason the service should've been this poor. I don't know what happened to the old staff, but the new owner should look into hiring them back on. At least they would try to have a conversation with you past "do you know what you're ordering?" And said it with a smile and a decent attitude. There were 8 of us total, which is apparently when they start charging an 18% gratuity fee? Seriously? Three were under ten and two were teenagers. The total gratuity paid was nearly $20.I would have rather left coins in a cup of water, upside down on a saucer as bad of service as we had. It's pretty sad how a hometown restaurant can go downhill so quickly. read more

Arrived when the Buffay was just put out and it was room temperature undercooked and very nasty. $13 and some change for a breakfast buffet that was inedible. Just an honest review. read more

Friendship would be like this towns Dennys . Place where you can get breakfast any time and menu is solid. Buffetts are always good and worth the visit . read more

My family had rooms 124,125,127.We just wanted to relax after a long day beung on the rode. But we come to this. We thought we got a good deal because the price, but i guess good price comes with consequences. read more

It's a local favorite and I can see why. It's typical diner fare and they are known for their breakfast brunch buffet. The food is not exceptionally amazing, but this place is like the old friend that's always there when you need them to be. read more

It's a restaurant that a lot of people who have lived in Altus most, if not all, of their lives go to regularly. The food is typical buffet food, not bad but nothing overly special. The service is like the food, not bad but not extra special. The inside is typical diner atmosphere. Again, not bad, just nothing that makes it stand apart. read more

Went in for breakfast order off the menu. The coffee is weak I got steak scrambled eggs the hashbrowns. Our waitress was great it's just the food was bland had no taste, Soul-less. I almost felt like eating off the buffet that was coming in fresh and I know for a fact that food does have flavor. Kudos to that! read more

Been having breakfast here for years. Always hot and fresh and friendly staff. Great place to have a sit down breakfast.

This place is donkey great service food is just bland. Could not name one good thing I've eaten there.

I willl never be back the food was okay but then at the end of it all the waitress who I might add never offered to refill my drink the whole time and had to be asked to refill my wife's drink stood there and watched my fill out my credit card receipt to make sure I tipped her and then sighed real loud when she seen the time because I guess 25% of the bill as a tip was not good enough for her in my opinion she didn't deserve a tip she dang sure didn't earn it and then to stand there and watch to make sure you get on and sigh because you feel it's not good enough that is tacky and we will never darken their doorway again read more

This hidden gym is definitely the places to go. They are open 24 hrs a day. Great chicken fried steak!

very good food for breakfast, lunch, dinner and friendly staff.

I Yelp EVERYTHING. I can't believe I didn't Yelp Friendship. Wtf? Here is a backstory guys. I worked there when I was 16. I was possibly the clumsiest waitress ever, but they took a chance on me. Ms Evie and Sara taught me a lot about being punctual etc. I loved those guys. Fast forward a decade later and my momma worked there. She didn't have to. She just wanted to. She loved it. She loved having fun with her friends. She became part of the scenery. They were the people who noticed she wasn't working the day she passed. They were there for me then like you wouldn't believe. We had lunch there, never paid a dollar. One of the regulars had always picked up the tab. We met there after the funeral. It was just natural to be where she was. I'm giving the Friendship Inn five stars for the nostalgia. The food tastes exactly the same today as it did nearly twenty years ago when they gave me a chance as a kid. Sure. The hash browns are greasy and this definitely isn't diet food. Guess what? This isn't why you come to a place like this! You come for the coffee. To glare at Mr Marshall for making comments about teenagers never amounting to anything. ((Hey, guess what Marshall!!! I amounted to lots of things. Baaaahhh!!!)) You come to talk to the same regulars that have been there for years, and you come when you mourn for the regulars who have passed. Bob. :( I used to come for thanksgiving when my mom was working, and leave her extravagantly large tips. Again. She didn't need it, she was bored and loved it there. So for being a part of my existence. For putting up with me pouring syrup all over myself both when I was a little kid working, and when I was a drunk 21 year old during the bar run. For always getting my order right, and the punctual amazing service that everyone has always given. For being a part of my kids' youth, and being the last place I ate when I left home for good, you guys get five stars. read more

This place is a little hidden gem. It's a nice place for breakfast when you're in town for a reunion or some other reason. It's old... but that does add to the charm, as another reviewer said. I will defnitely return, as I am in Altus annually. read more

Breakfast food is good. Service is good. Decor could use some help. You feel like you stepped back in time to 1982 when you walk through the door. read more

Friendship Inn Restaurant - the front of the restaurant - American Near Me - Altus, Oklahoma

Got food poisoning from the buffet was sick for half the week and needed an IV. Don't eat here if you value your health, but hey what do you expect in a town of 19000 and shrinking that business owners on a committee decide what new and interesting places we get. read more

Well, looking at the other reviews this place seems okay, but staying in the actual inn is kind of gross. As soon as we opened the door, several bugs fell off of it, leaving a great first appearance, and the rooms just give off a bad vibe. However the front desk was super nice and friendly, so I'll give them that. And you also get 10% off if you eat at the restaurant while staying in the inn. Oh and it also has a pool, so that's nice too, really i would probably give it a 2.5-3.0 stars, but the bugs really got me. read more

Friendship Inn Restaurant - Friendship is for lovers - American Near Me - Altus, Oklahoma

Love their breakfast burrito! Their breakfast buffet is solid too. This place is solid small town American diner food. The people are super friendly and great service. Spent a lot of mornings over coffee and a lot of late nights after work. Glad this place is around. read more

Food was soooo good! You have to ask for the green salsa, I don't care what you're getting, it's worth it! Great service, even late at night! 5 stars! Will eat here on my next trip :) read more

We had breakfast there today and it was awful. My wife's grits were watery and my omelet was made wrong. No apologies from the waitress. They remade my omelet but it was pretty tasteless. No offer to not charge for the grits(she didn't eat them) I was quite surprised as breakfast is usually very good. Today was Sunday and maybe they didn't have the regular cook read more

Apparently it's open 24/7, which means a lot in Altus, Oklahoma. Had an omelet, it was okay. An omelet. But that's about it. Nothing terribly special, everything tasted fine. I could see myself drunkenly craving some eggs and biscuits in the middle of the night sometime. Maybe I'll give it another shot. read more

Great atmosphere, awesome service, and with the quickness. These people and this restaurant were amazing. Seen the "cheap" price and pretty much figured you get what you pay for. NOT here. There was a lot of food for such a cheap price. Waitress came around every couple of minutes to refill drinks and check up on everyone. Very helpful, very pleasant, and I will definitely try and go back read more

Yelp never steers me wrong! I have wanted to try this restaurant since we moved to Altus and last week we had the chance to stop in for lunch. I had breakfast for lunch but was seriously eyeing my son's fried chicken tenders from the Buffett. I had a taste and was blown away! The chicken was crispy and seasoned to perfection. We have been back for the breakfast buffet since that first afternoon lunch. I thought it was a major plus that we went in on a Sunday around 11am. We started our buffett with various breakfast items then the restaurant slowly transitioned to lunch items which we got to sample as well. I have tried the pancakes, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, chicken tenders, enchiladas and baked potato. Everything has been perfect and flavorful. It's the best buffett I have ever been to and my favorite restaurant! read more

Service was great! I am here for a military reunion and drove up from OKC. Clean place, great food and coffee. Eggs cooked perfect! Beats anything I've eaten in IHOP! read more

Great wait staff. Food is average. The facilities and furniture need a good scrubbing or new paint.

For some reason I visit for breakfast every time I'm in Altus. Good Sunday brunch, inexpensive. Nice small hometown feel.

So everyone seems in agreeance that this is a really great place to eat and you get a lot more than what the you think you paid for. Their breakfast buffet is amazing with a lot of choices. But their two-egg special on weekdays is a really good deal too! Besides the eggs [cooked to order] you get a choice of bacon or sausage, hash-browns or grits, or biscuit and gravy. Amazing! it's like $3.50 or something near there haha, I can't remember but delicious! The only problem I have with Friendship Inn, is not the service [it's fantastic] but, the price for a cup of coffee. It's a little too high to go out for coffee there everyday (like so many others who do daily). This is the general complaint I've heard for YEARS from the older-timers, and the old folks who go in. They love the food, the service and the staff, but the price of coffee, puts many people off. If they lowered it to $1.00, they could easily gain more daily, and returning customers. Right now, that's why many people order water, or cough up the coffee money with some hesitation. I know it may seem silly, but it's a VERY common topic when discussing Friendship Inn with the locals. Believe me, this is something small compared to the extremely amazing service Friendship Inn can offer for it's customers! read more

Just like Mom used to make! I literally could eat there every day. Good quality, old fashioned REAL food. Great service too!
