Friendly’s Announces the Triumphant Return of Mini Mozz Sticks
America’s favorite family restaurant offers more menu options than ever and brings back a beloved appetizer by popular demand
Dallas, TX (RestaurantNews.com) Over its 80-year history, iconic restaurant brand Friendly’s has learned two important lessons: guests love homestyle meals, and give the people what they want. With a new menu and the return of fan-favorite Mini Mozz Sticks, Friendly’s is listening to diners and delivering the delicious food they crave.
This legendary appetizer is back by popular demand. After leaving the menu in 2022, Friendly’s fans clamored for their return on social media and even started a petition on Change.org. So this crispy, cheesy goodness is back on the menu!
Message delivered! The Friendly’s team has been working overtime to restore the Mini Mozz Sticks as a permanent item on the menu. This time, it’s here to stay!
It all begins with the new menu rollout on Wednesday, Jan. 31, featuring several big menu additions, including:
