Bites Nearby: Friendly's

Even in the cold of winter, sometimes you just want some ice cream.

You could stand on a corner and look around until a restaurant sign draws  you in. But we've got a better idea. Each week, Burke Patch picks a great restaurant either in town or nearby that is worth checking out. Here's this week's choice:

Friendly's -- This is the only branch of the family-friendly, ice cream filled restaurant chain from here to Sterling! This is a great place to take the family for an extra special treat. You've got all your classic American-style breakfast and lunch foods, plus a variety of desserts, including the chocolate Fribble, a milkshake which inspires fan groups on Facebook from its ever-devoted fans. (Editor's Note: My boss is a HUGE fan of the Fribble.)

5761 Burke Centre Parkway, Burke. 703-978-3552. Open daily from 7 a.m. - 11 p.m. Prices: Full meals running from around $8 to $20
