For your best hamburger experience, Duffy’s drive-in will make your taste buds go totally crasy. It’s a moment that you can enjoy quietly while your meal is absolutely awesome. If there is anything to add, it’s that the moment to enjoy the moment with a good meal.
Very friendly environment and the people here were very nice too. Definitely visiting again. Also ps. they’re currently open from their back door.
I've been coming to duffys for as long as I can remember. Ping knows my family. Great food and everyone in friendly
About 15 minutes after eating here, I felt sick to my stomach & nauseous for 2 days straight. The food took a long time to arrive, and was cold when it came to the table. The staff also let a drunk man corner us at our table in the booth (he leaned over our table and blocked us all from leaving, making us very uncomfortable & scared for our safety) - the staff did nothing to get this man away from our table. In fact, they were on first name basis with him, so we assume he was either a regular or a friend of the owner. I will not be returning here for my safety and for my well-being as I still do not feel 100% back to normal 2 days after eating the food here. Do not go here.
About as classic as you can get - order a burger, sit at the bar and have a beer while the guy behind the counter makes a homemade masterpiece of a burger. Have a chat with the locals and leave happy - this place has character and the burgers are really great, as are the fries. Yum!
My favorite banquet burger in the city! You can get a burger, fries and pop and have a beer while you wait for less than $20! Ping and Helen are fabulous!
Don't judge a burger by it's bun - Had the double banquet burger with the works. Absolutely delicious! The burger was handmade with fresh beef and cooked fresh when ordered. The bacon was cooked to crispy perfection. The only negative is that bun could be a little better - maybe fresh baked rather than a bulk package one from Costco. Doesn't detract from the burger though.
Best burgers anywhere! This is my new favourite burger place!
The owner is completely rude and very argumentative I will never go back to this hole again!!!
The burger you re looking for!
With their friendly hospitality, its hard not to keep coming back.
Great burger !
Excellent,#,one
Good burger, good guy running the show! Place has character. 5 stars
Excellent food. Great service.
The owner is amazing they always have the right prices.
The food is good but the service sucks. He lets too many crackheads in the restaurant and he only treats his friends good. He has zero people or customer service skills to run a restaurant. If he has more than one food order he gets very rude to the rest of his customers.
This place is a staple to Dawes, if you live in the area you know. They have a banquet burger and I LOVEE it n their fries too are great. The place itself is a bit sketch if you haven t been but the people are honestly sweet. Parking: Parking is shared lot in the back, front door is also on the back.
Best homemade burger I ve had in a very long time. The combo with fries & drink is a very good size portion and affordable price. Owner is very friendly. I m so happy I found this place.
Amazing people, great atmosphere and alot of love
food was fair although a bit more pricey than expected, no dining in available, and a single burger took 20 mins to make because they re homemade
Its smells
Legit 4.8 stars on the burger meter. The man was very friendly & told me upfront it would be 15 min for a homemade burger because they make it real. He came through right on time and I was not disappointed . Thick , juicy , authentic, delicious and well worth the money . One of the top classic burger joints in T.O . Go try it
Great food, Great prices and the people that work there are awesome !
Parking: Parking available Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible
Great place and vibe and the food is amazing
One of the best burgers I have had was at this place, would definitely go back and recommend anyone to try them
The burger is awesome but went there for takeout. Did not even allowed to enter the restaurant. Had to wait in cold to get the food. But food was too good
Not good taste
Dirty disgusting wash room and rings of dirt around table and chair legs. Have pictures.
Great food, good people. Duffy has been here for decades.
We havent eaten such good beef burgers in a long time The taste was delicious...
Very tasty food I enjoyed it
Best burgers!!
Love the owners!!
First time getting the onion rings and omg they were awesome. That, along with a fully loaded bacon cheeseburger that was just as good, and I was a happy camper. Thanks for not making me cook in this heat.
Excellent
Amazing food, kind staff.. you gotta try this place!
I m pretty sure they have one of the best burgers in Toronto. Super lovely people, very reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. I always get the banquet burger and would highly recommend.
Its a better bar than restaurant. The fries are as terrible as any Ive ever had, even gravy cant save them. Wait times for food can be very long no matter who is cooking there. For some reason, even though capacity limits have been lifted, all the bar stools are still gone, and not coming back until March. So maybe call before going or risk not getting a seat.
You are treated like family. Food is great and delicious They have both indoor dining and takeout. The owner is fabulous. Come take a taste at Duffys .
Good food for decent price
Great food, great atmosphere. Going there for years and will continue to do so for many more to come
Great Burgers. This place has one of the best burgers in town. I go usually every other day. Amazing staff. Very friendly and accommodating. The Owners make you feel like family. While there, you gotta try there food. If you feel adventurous, ask for the HOT SAUCE
Always love duffys its just down the street and it feels amazing
Its a good friendly place to have drinks and really good food, I love the banquet burger so good and the staff are wonderful people! Make sure you tip the staff
Great homemade burgers and cold beer.
This place is an amazing hole in the wall bar and grill it has the best fries and gravy
Hole in the wall bar. Good deal on wings. Very friendly, hard working owners. The regular customers are a bit rough but that s reflective of the neighborhood.
Best food in the area! Reasonable prices
Awesome, fresh and greasy burgers. Cool little place
Its ok for a cheap beer with cheap company. Dont eat there. Gross behaviour witnessed
Food is amazing, owners are great.
They have the best hamburgers, poutines, all homemade. Unbeatable prices. The Owners are amazing, friendly. The customers have much respect for the owners so pretty much drama free atmosphere.
Great host and even better burgers
I know the owners and Ive made tons of friends who are regulars.. stuck with me now
Great place
Good food
If your looking for a really awesome burger this is it fries are good and the service #1 Im new here and this is my go too place.
Its a very nice hole in the ground.
Great food,great owners
Best burgers around
Amazing value, great food
Actually enjoy coming here. Feels like a community here. Decent food. Eaters all know each other so chatting like a living room. Easily joined in the chat. Been going almose every day Ive been in the area. Small parking lot out back usually has a spot. Bus stop on Dawes right there. Victoria Park and St Claire is a ~3 min walk.
Cheap drinks, clean establishment and friendly staff :)
It was a nightmare, it felt like I stuck in a shadow dimension to be perfect honest Im not sure if I ever got out.
Good place to pick up coffee, cigarettes or a snack.
These places are getting harder to find in Toronto
Great food fabulous owners
Amazing burgers and gravy
A lot of these 5 star reviews are obviously fake. In some cases there is 2 reviews that are identical word for word. Someone got stabbed in the back there last night for Petes sake. The food is not good. Stay away.
Great staff. I love the diner feeling.
Great prices great tasting food great owners
Duffys Dirt-burgers, typical Dawes Rd, lol... for those who think drinking on the Danforth is too high class!
Great people and amazing food and service.
One of the best bars I visited so far, its not so fancy but good variety of food and drinks and very very cheap. I would go back there again!
Good people and excellent customer service
Burgers are great
Friendly staff and delicious food at a really good price!! It s hard to find a place like this in Toronto these days.
Good place. Very reasonable prices.
Chill place with nice selection of food and drink. Fries are generous, server is friendly. Im always satisfied here
Theyre absolutely bodacious
Just a total dump not sure why they arent shut down yet.
I like Duffys. Their Burgers are the best. Ping, the owner, is one of the nicest person I know. Go and see for yourself.
Food.
Good food good company
Nice place! With the boy server running forth and back to serve customers. ... Really amazing !!!
Home made burgers, 3.75 beers and classic rock.
Love this place. Love the owners and people that go there religiously. Pings poutine is my fave..
Be careful. This place is not a good spot to enter nevertheless to eat. I wonder if someone has inspected the place ever.
Despite the appearance, their wings are delicious. Some of the biggest wings Ive ever had!
Its good :)
Wings and fries are delicious; the only place that I can compare them too is Duffs, which I find kinda funny since, despite the similar name and wing quality, theres no connection between the two. I havent tried anything else on the menu personally but know people who eat there and like everything. The woman in the evening cooks better than her husband in the day IMO. If youre expecting anything fancy dont bother, but if you are into the small, greasy-spoon-type places, this is one worth checking out!
Classy joint, exquisite selection for the person of impeccable taste. Be sure to dress up, it is of upper class atmosphere. Perfect place for a romantic date!
Beautiful,feels like home every time I am there
Not a good place to go to at all, the neighbourhood tryed to shut them down once, they did manage to have their liquor license revoked for a short period of time, unfortunately they got it back, maybe another time they may be more successful, stay away from this place, it is an eyesore to the community..
Disgusting.
