With its focus on freshly handmade burgers and a cozy, inviting atmosphere, Duffy's is more than just a pit stop for a meal; it's an experience that promises to tantalize your taste buds.
At Duffy's, the star of the show is undoubtedly the double banquet burger, celebrated by patrons like Andrew Potter for its mouthwatering flavor and generous portions. Handcrafted with fresh beef that is cooked to order, each burger is a testament to quality and care.

“ 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. ”
“ Friendly staff and delicious food at a really good price!! It’s hard to find a place like this in Toronto these days. ”
“ 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 ”
