When I was growing up Farrell's was the place for birthday's.  And yes, I still feel a bit guilty about dripping my birthday hot fudge sunday over a friend, Eric, next to me when I was in Elementary School (the waitress told me to hold it with one hand, but I was not strong enough, so it tipped over and it poured over him).

The Farrell's I went to was on Rosemead, and now its a Chinese Sea Food Restaurant (Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant).  A new Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor opened up in Brea and my daughter went to it a couple of days ago.  How times changes!

If your interested in the history of Farrells, and what happened, this is a great site. There used to be 120 locations, then it shrank to 1, and now there are 5.
