Kiefer’s 5-star review:
Duffin's is the beating heart of Vancouver. An institution. There's something for everyone here, even if at first glance it might be a bit overwhelming (or concerning). Obviously the donuts are fantastic, but the fried chicken and sandwiches are also consistently great. Drinks are pretty solid, you're not getting any fancy coffee but the bubble tea, smoothies and Thai tea are amazing for the price. Last thing I'll touch on is the atmosphere. The restaurant feels like it's existed forever, without any updates to the aesthetics, but that just gives it a cozy, familiar atmosphere that's pretty hard to find in the rest of the city. If you're a local you already know about Duffin's, but if you're passing through town it is 100% a must visit.
