We were passing through Aberdeen, hungry for breakfast and we lucked up on this gem. We ended up talking to the owners for a long time after our meal, learning about history of both the area and the restaurant. The service was fabulous, all our food was scrumptious, and I’m only sorry I’ll probably never be in the area again. I loved how they had a variety of books about the area. Thanks for my Kurt Cobain book. Thank you for being such a good hosts. There aren’t many restaurants like yours left and we sure did appreciate it.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We like Duffy's! We found Duffy's on a trip over to Ocean Shores and stopped in for lunch. The place is large but inviting. For us gen x folks, it feels very nostalgic like grandma's dining room. The menu has an Irish font on it but that's about the only think Irish about the place. The staff is friendly and quick. We overheard one of the wait staff, saying that she'd been working there for 26 years. We hope that means that they treat their employees well because the employees sure treated us well. The restaurant is comfortable and warm. Built to handle the large families who are just passing through as well as the locals who probably visit most days of the week. The menu is pretty extensive, and you can order breakfast up until 4pm. The prices when we visited seemed just a smidge high for the quality, but I feel like that is a result of our current economy but when have you ever known prices to come down after they've risen? We've been to Duffy's a few times now and have ordered a chicken sandwich, burgers, some appetizers, breakfast and even took one of their giant cinnamon rolls to go. No big complaints about any of it except the pork chops. We advise you to not order the pork chops. If you watch our YouTube channel Braaescapades, we reiterate my wife's experience with the chops and explain how they were very dry. My wife had to order a side of BBQ sauce in order to get them down and when we explained the situation to our server, she just smiled and told us that yeah, that's the way the pork chops are here. Other than that, we've enjoyed everything else, and Duffy's is now on our list of go to restaurants when traveling in and around the Aberdeen area. Cheers!

This place was well recommended to us. The front bar area is cool. I don't think we will be back for the food after church anymore. It was okay but for the price? The restaurant area is like a Dennys, but the food is better at dennys and the prices are better. Also the condition of the seats and tables need an up grade. I did clean my plate and the service was good. Just being honest. See our YouTube channel Coolest Life.
