Map updates are paused. The ice milk differentiates the Awful Awful from its cousins, the Cabinet and the Frappe, and from its evil twin, the Friendly's Fribble Shake.
Awful Awfuls are most readily available in Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Mocha, Chocolate Mint, and Coffee flavors, but can be made from any flavor syrup ipecac -flavored Awful Awful anyone? And while Newport Creamery will make an Awful Awful out of any flavor ice cream they carry, we recommend steering clear of anything with chunks—Oreo bits and chocolate chips just gunk up your straw.
Awful Awfuls are "Awful big, awful good," and if you can drink three at a sitting, the fourth one is free! They do still have Fried Clams tho. Sounds like a bunch of Mounties remember Bonds! As hard as I tried I coud never finish mine. Loved bothe the coffee aweful aweful and the fribbel. They are. You so good. My name was never there of course,but the plaque served as a roster of a mighty bunch of MHS football players!!
Life long Massachusetts resident here. A Fribble is simply Friendly brand name for a grape, which has ice cream in it. A milkshake is whole milk and syrup, buzzed up to a frothy goodness. And I too remember the drink-two-get-one-free challenge, and how it was pretty much impossible to get through two full ones! I grew up in N. This was wonderful to read about them. This younger generation missed out on a delicious creation!!!! Thanks for the memories!! We had a Newport Creamery a block away when I was growing up.
I remember having cream cheese and olive sandwiches and a coffee awful, awful. Wish they had never closed the one near us. Wish I could find olive spread in a jar again.. Awful Awfuls are the best. I had them too. And Awful Awfuls were and still are awesome! I had no idea Friendly with or without that s had them, too. Great memories from growing up in RI. I now spread cream cheese and add sliced Spanish olives.
Close enough for me. Wonderful memories! Bond, who I think may have started the business in their basement. The business progressed to downtown Upper Montclair, where Bonds was the place to go after football games. I believe the building is gone now, but it was such a fixture of my childhood. I never realized that the Awful Awful had spread all over the New England area. Thanks for awakening some old memories!
Friday night basketball games were the highlight of the week. I now live in the mid-west and go back to New England almost every fall.
I can still taste and feel the cold, rich, and wonderful Awful Awful. What memories!! I wish they would make their way west. I miss the old Friendly restaurant. Remember the deal at Newport Creamery. If you consumed 2 you get the 3rd one free! Never could drink all of the 2nd one! I went to Cumberland H. When I was 11 years old my school was 5 minutes walking distance to Newport creamery in RI. If I had ,25 cents from collecting coke bottles and cashing them in.
I would sneak out at lunch time and have a coffee AA. Yes thats what they cost in the early s Still love them today! I always ordered my favorite, coffee. I like mocha, too, and would order that. That is something I just Love To Remember! Awful Awful was ice cream???? Growing up in Newport,RI, the Newport creamery and an awful awful was a real treat on a Sunday afternoon.
The drink was a very thick concoction, barely drinkable with a straw, and served in a large plastic glass with the name on the side. The secret ingredient was ice milk. In , the Awful Awful milkshake name was replaced with the Fribble, a meaningless name created by customers in a naming contest. Most patrons had no idea why the name was changed.
Although it was the same shake, many said it was not as good as its predecessor. Over the years, the drink has had two other formulas, including the use of soft-serve ice cream and, more recently, Friendly's tasty hard ice cream has become the key ingredient.
In , two brothers, Priestly and Curtis Blake, founded Friendly in Springfield with a single shop offering 5-cent cones. During the s and s, the brothers expanded their ice cream business into a chain with several New England locations.
Their ninth shop opened in Lee in , and within three years they added shops in Great Barrington and Pittsfield. At one time, the company had five locations in Pittsfield, and shops in Lenox and North Adams, as well as those in Lee and Great Barrington. By the mids, there were over Friendly locations in the country.
