We went there with high hopes for this place, most of the reviews were positive, but we were let down. Service was slower than any other restaurant we went to on the island. We would order a drink; 10 minutes later wonder where it was then see out waitress talking with her friends. Food was ok, not great. The worst... more

We had a great late lunch at Dufffy's. We had cheesburgers and they were the best by far that I've had in a while. Great service and unique drinks. My 12 year old and her friend had a great time listening to the music and really enjoyed the free necklace they gave them. Make sure you bring cash because they... more

Duffy's is a lot of fun. A lot of us locals go there to party and have fun. They have a lot of food specials, like Alaskan King Crab, Maine lobster, and tacos for $1.50 on Tuesday nights. (The specials change nightly.) It's a place where locals and tourists can hang out and have fun. The bartenders there will make... more

This has been one of mine and my family's favorite places to come while we are in St. Thomas. We have been here many times. Tonight, to celebrate a birthday we ate dinner at Duffy's. Half way through my meal I noticed I had been served raw chicken. The waitress was apologetic and I spoke briefly with the manager on... more

After a long day on St John's and just off the ferry, we stopped at Duffy's for dinner. We were slightly underdressed in swimsuits and tees but they didn't seem to mind. Especially considering we were sitting in a parking lot! But that's part of the charm. Eating in a parking lot would not work in most places for does... more

Despite the rave reviews that got us there, eating dinner in the middle of a parking lot really is what it sounds like. The food was overcooked, unoriginal, and not tasty. The wind blew out the flame provided to heat our food. We had to hold many things down to keep them from blowing away, and the cars driving near... more

It's not the bar and food, it's the concept. Yes it's a shack in a Parking lot for professional offices overlooking Red Hook Harbor. As the professional offices close, the cars move out of the parking lot, more chairs and tables come out, and the bar grows and grows thru-out the night. Never seen it before, and it was quite... more

Duffy's is a fun place to be on the island. Lots of fun drinks to choose from, music & appetizers. I think everyone visiting St.Thomas should have at least one souvenir cup from Duffy's. Although it is a shack in a parking lot, its a neat place to visit on vacation. Very laid back atmosphere during the day and can... more

This place is a cheesy fake beach shack in a busy parking lot. Seriously, I have no Idea why anyone would go there. If I were to judge a restaurant only by how much "Flair" they put on their food and drinks, this place would get 5 stars. But, I don't judge like that. Gross fried bar food with cute... more
