Rich & creamy. Scooping since 1935. Making the world Friendly one scoop at a time! The Blake Brothers opened their first ice cream shop in 1935 and called it Friendly to provide a place where families & friends could create lasting memories while enjoying great tasting ice cream made with high quality ingredients. Today, we still source milk daily from local farms and use many of the Blakes' original recipes allowing you to share our scoop shop heritage with family at home!
