Located at 41186 Beechwood Drive (at Lorain Boulevard), this new store features many firsts for FriendShip, including its first new store of 2018, the introduction of the FriendShip Fuel brand, and the unveiling of its proprietary FriendShip Kitchen restaurant.

“Our guests are enjoying our freshly hand-breaded chicken, FriendShip recipe pizza and hot breakfast sandwiches, prepared by our FriendShip Kitchen chefs,” said Ed Burcher, vice president of foodservice.

FriendShip Kitchen foods are freshly prepared on premises. The menu is designed to offer something for everyone, all through the day — from oven-baked breakfast pizza, stuffed burritos and egg sandwiches, to coffee made from premium roasted beans, to lunch and dinner choices that range from salads to sandwiches to pizza and its FriendShip Kitchen signature chicken.

“We have worked for the last year to develop and refine the offer so that our guests enjoy the tastiest chicken and pizza. This has been a real team effort in building this new store offer and format for FriendShip,” Burcher added.
