Duffy’s Tavern

Came here after my fiancée insisted this place was laid back and chill with great food. Upon arrival we walked in and it was empty inside. We grabbed a booth and proceeded to look over the menu. Nothing really caught my attention. Our waiter came over with this huge tall sign and had us read over the special. Not sure why this couldn’t just be told verbally instead of being shown some weird kinda power point presentation. Anyways, I ended up ordering a burger with fries and my daughter ordered some wings and onion rings. Which by the way she was given about 4 rings for about $ 6. We ordered mozzarella sticks as an app and they were left to long in the fryer. The bread on my burger was falling apart, meat dry, fries below average. The Margarita was given in a regular beer glass. Didn’t taste great. All night these waiters were dragging this huge sign around to have people read the special. Why not tell them verbally? The dragging of this sign was annoying considering the place is small, so you couldn’t help but see/​hear it. When it was time to pay, was informed cash only. A place that is established like this place supposedly is, should try and get with the times. Very inconvenient since not all, but most people do not carry cash anymore.

I have been living in the area a long time and had only been here once in 2006 when I was pregnant and had a burger craving so I got take-​out and I remember it being good! BUT last night as my family was looking for a new place to eat, we decided to try this place. Well unfortunately it didn’t go so well :(the place is really cozy and the bartender that greeted us when we entered was nice and our waiter was nice also. If you were going there for ambience and alcohol, you would be satisfied, however we actually were hungry so here’s what happened with food:
We ordered a chips and salsa for appetizer and weren’t quite sure what to make of the salsa, it was gross!
My party ordered:
Chicken sandwich which was rubbery.
Mini burgers for the kids which were overcooked hockey pucks.
I ordered celery and carrots and well how can you mess THAT up!!!
All in all, will NEVER go back and do NOT recommend!!!

Not exactly the «Duffy’s» I was thinking of when I agreed to come. With that being said the fried mozzarella was delish and if you order a simple drink (like jack and club soda) they have a heavy pour. Mixed drinks aren’t really good here (don’t bother ordering a «Perfect Manhattan» — although kudos that they even knew what it was). The chicken wings were good, but I was sad that there was no buffalo sauce.

Went there today, the service was horrible, the wings were horrible. I ordered a club sandwich never received it, last time I come here.

Rude service, if you work in the industry you should like your job otherwise find something else. Complete sh*t hole don’t waste your time or hard earned money. Fail.

Sharing a good Marine moment with my brothers from another mother. Happy Birthday Day Marines! Having a brew and waiting for the cutting of the cake.

I’ve come here a couple of times with my dad and it’s the same experience.
It is a local sport bar so a lot of people know about it.
The food is always good not great in my opinion.

Okay first of all everyone dropping bad reviews are wrong this place is amazing and the staff is friendly as heck and the manager Kyle always hooks me up everytime I go there the food is awesome and it’s cheap. If you don’t want to try anything wild go with the boneless wings they are A1! And if you want something more filling get the chicken Alfredo it’s sooo good! This place has an awesome atmosphere and the staff is always helpful!

Food: Burgers are great considering price. Big fan of the chili but it’s indeed salty. Stay away from mac and cheese (it’s kraft brand).
Overall good place. Staff has always been friendly or at least attentive. Most seats have good view of sports. Family friendly establishment. Fair pricing on drinks and food.
Keep in mind: this place is CASH ONLY.

It’s a Miami Locals bar! Great history, nice environment and really really great drinks. The food is hearty. Every night there’s a dinner special, but bring cash… no credit cards accepted here.
Haven’t been to bad event here.
And if they have clam chowder… order it! You won’t regret it.
Love it.

By far my favorite place to be. They make me feel like I am part of the family. Great family oriented place. Ice cold beers. Great bar food. Always has a special of the day. Overall awesome feeling when I am there. No other place in Miami has this feel. Try it!

It’s okay, the food is like whatever. The only reason I keep coming here is because it’s in the neighborhood. The owner is always around which is nice.

The food is okay the soup is salty always been salty, I have been going to this place since 1997
This place is in my neighborhood
The prices are decent
The staff is always pissed and looking at the floor, no eye contact with the customers at all so is hard to get their attention
The bartender is always serious like pissed
I wish they had better food not just bar food
The owner is always around and very nice

Stop #3 on our tour of neighborhood dives– Crew of characters, decent drinks/​prices. Definitely has the Irish pub charm on lock

This is my version of the Cheers bar. The entire staff is great but some notables are def Stacey, Jeff, and George. I have been coming here for years and it’s for a reason. Bring cash and a healthy liver.

This place is f****** disgusting there was a f****** roach underneath my table, which was an automatic deal breaker for me, they don’t take credit cards, the server was a f****** douchebag, I have never had such a bad experience anywhere else. This establishment has no class whatsoever, I’m glad I got up and left before I actually spent a f****** penny there and the server is lucky I didn’t f****** stomp him into the ground. 0 stars…

Awesome place come here regularly and the food is amazing!
The soups are real good
The stakes are also good
Burgers
And
Amazing cheese cake

Come with Cash!
This is one of the old-​time taverns that doesn’t take credit cards! Somehow it works for them. I bet they could make more if they took plastic… But I digress
This is a typical tavern or pub with typical food and drink. For the vegetarian, they do have a veggie burger. That’s about it though. But when the mood strikes this is a place I think of for the burger fix.
Even better, on Monday’s they offer the $ 5.50 burger special. You really can’t beat that. The fries are always hot and crisp too.
They have a full bar and offer a good selection of beers on tap. The Happy Hour is great. Monday-​Friday 3−6pm they have 2 for 1 specials. On top of that, for the late night owls; after 11pm they again offer 2 for 1. Now That makes cash only seem trivial.

Great local dive to hangout on St. Patrick’s Day! A big tent is set up with outdoor bar and grill area, lots of tables and chairs, and a live band. If St. Patrick’s day falls on a weekday and you don’t know what to do, this is a great place to visit!

The bartender said hello, how are you, and made eye contact. I asked for ShockTop and he explained they also had a seasonal flavor and have me a sample. He made eye contact and sincerely thanked me for my tip. I’m having an out-​of-​Miami experience! Unfortunately this is unusual service for me in Miami.
Besides that, i liked the look and feel of this sports bar and the people sitting at the bar were nice. I’ll be back.
