An old favorite with a new spin is set to open in Westfield, Mass. next month.
A 2700 square-foot Friendly's Cafe will open in the first week of February.
The menu will include classic Friendly's options, with meals and of course ice cream, but the setup will be a little different, with the restaurant offering fast-casual service.
