Reviews for The Friendly Tavern in Zionsville, IN
I've been going to the friendly for years and they never disappoint. The breaded tenderloin was thick and moist with a light... crisp coating. Lightly seasoned with an excellent bun. The perfect tenderloin. The grilled tenderloin was oddly a bit thinnerand a bit tough with a tad too much seasononing. The onion rings were perfect coated and seasoned and fried to perfection. Thefries were also perfectly fried, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. They are lightly seasoned. Thankfully our carryout order was in recyclable plastic rather than the ubiquitous styrofoam. Next step compostable ***** breaded tenderloin ***½ grilled tenderloin ***** onion rings ***** french fries ***** service Read more
Greatest place in Zionsville and maybe Indy to get wings! Get there early cause they will have a wait after 5! Daily specials... and drinks too! Read more

Great experience! Food was awesome: the buffalo wings were perfect, buffalo chips crunchy, home made. Besides, the restaurant... has a variety of food available which gives you a hard time to choose. Staff super friendly and authentic. Read more
A lot of food but lacks in the flavor & taste department. We ordered 20 chicken wings, 2 whole pieces of Catfish and a Grilled... Cajun style filet. The portions were very filling but the flavor of the chicken and the fish was very average. We also asked forhard cooked/crispy chicken and they were not crispy so if you like crispy wings, make sure you tell them that up front! Also,they are supposed to do 10 drums & 10 flats on the Chicken so if they do not, ask them to correct it and they are professionalenough to do so. Overall, if you are looking for a place to get a lot of food and aren?t really concerned about the taste asmuch, this is a great place to have a good time with family & friends and you can also watch games from the tvs on thewall. Our customer service from our waitress was about a B. I think after we began to ask more questions than she bargained forwe began to annoy her but she was very nice & professional and we would recommend her again! Great but small upbeat sports barenvironment that has the small mom & pop shop feel! The food was not extremely pricey either. Read more
Truly blessed to live in an area where we get to see these amazing people every weekend! Yes, the wings are literally the best... (ignore the haters). The owner is an amazing person and when you come to the friendly, not only are you getting quality food,but you get to experience it with down to earth people!

This is a review for Friendly's Tavern not to be confused at all by the chain Friendly's Restaurants. No comparison at all! I... just love this place. Almost everytime I have been there, there has been a small wait. I don't mind because things move alongquite smoothly and the food and service are so worth any wait you might have. Luckily I have had the pleasure of experiencingone of the most wonderful career waitresses I have ever experienced in such a relaxed atmosphere. She was very much there to getthe job done and did it perfectly. A real pro and her craft. I wish I could remember her name. It's not because she is notmemorable but because I have chicken skat for brains sometimes, have been busy so this is a delayed review. We started off withthe most wonderful very lightly breaded chicken wings that you can imagine. They are not wet, but come with sauces on the side.We added the Friendly Platter (their sampler platter) the chicken strips are lightly breaded just like their famous wings. Mysister in law and I started out with a glass (or two) of Reisling. It was just a little dry for the both of us but I promise itdidn't go to waste. My brother in law ordered the clam chowder and a side salad not pictured. My sister in law ordered the TunaMelt with substitutions and fries no problem. My husband ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap with Cole Slaw. I ordered the turkeyburger. The sandwich could have probably been squished on the grill just one less time, but was still thick and had good flavor.All the food was very good but as always, the chicken wings always steal the show. Their hand breaded chicken (any style) andservice will always earn them Five Stars in my book?? ?? ?? ?? ?? Can not wait to come back! Read more
Lives up to it?s name! Super friendly hometown vibe. We visited while in the area and several random people talked to us. Really... good drinks and love all the healthy menu options. Definitely will return on a future visit to the area. Read more
