Everybody seems to be doing everything. It's a well-oiled machine delivering excellent chow with unsurpassable energy. Great food; Fun, friendly place.

We were here during Ice Cream Days and the back part of the upstairs has windows that overlook the band shell where I enjoyed watching various dance performances. The coffee and tea is very good and they have a large selection of baked goods including gluten free. I had a gluten free monster cookie and it was perfect, all of the ingredients were listed on the label - nothing artificial at all.

Outstanding coffee shop, with updated ambience. A great place to relax with a pastry or drink.read more

This is indeed a Mid restaurant…read more Small town opinion is that it's a great addition to a dwindling selection of variety. Big city folk opinion is that it's trash. Over all? 4/10. The fries were good, the reviews with 3 stars are pretty spot on. I came in on a Wednesday night, the restaurant was reasonably busy, I asked for the Birria nachos, and a side of fries. The nachos were ironically dry, the cheese hardened in seconds to the construction paper under, there was no flavor which I tried to help with more cheese dip (didn't work). The server came over and asked how I was enjoying it, (I'd eaten less than 6 nachos at this point) I said "it's unappetizing, I can't eat this, I'm sorry, it's just not very good" She took the plate, but made me pay for a terrible dish. That was hardly eaten. I tried to make it appetizing in order to eat it and not waste it, but 2 chips from there I was done. I finished the fries and left hungry. You have A LOT OF INEXPERIENCED SERVICE PEOPLE HERE. I did not see a single adult in the restaurant. No one of age to run the staff, check on food, check on customers, run plates, or help with the over all atmosphere. This is why the customer service is suspect, they don't want to pay to have a competent adult running the place. It's "small town good" but not for anyone from somewhere with much better places available. (The prices were a tad high for the lack of ability to create worth while dishes.)

Everyone enjoyed their meals, including a burger, fish and chips, a chicken dish with bacon jam, and a couple of pasta dishes. Everything tasted fresh and was well prepared. The only knock was that the french onion soup was really very salty. Still it was a good meal in a small, small town.

The food is fresh and presented beautifully. This is an authentic tea room experience. Barb's scones are the best I have ever had with her amazing Devonshire cream. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so lovely. I highly recommend having a tea house experience here. Bob and Barb are the sweetest and most charming people you could ever meet. It is clear an extensive amount of detail is put into every experience. The loose leaf tea is steeped to perfection with a great selection to choose from. The floor plan is open with cozy nooks and Victorian chairs including a play area for the children to dress up. The food ambience and service rivaled other tea houses I have been to. All is presented on gorgeous antique/Victorian plate and glassware with tea in beautiful bone China cups. Pour yourself a memory at The Friendship Tea House! Reservations are required.
