The more I dine out the higher my standards come for reviews and Duffy's STILL gets a 5. There was a mistake made when we were seated on the patio as the hostess didn't leave silverware and menus when she sat us so it took a few minutes to be greeted. We had to flag someone down who thought we sat ourselves and said we needed to see the hostess. Understandable if that had been the case, but since it wasn't I couldn't help but be curious....what was his plan, then? To just ignore us all night rather than let us know? From there a different server came out, apologized profusely (even though she had never walked by and ignored us like the other server) and our service was top notch. I wish I had her name bc she was fantastic! Hate to have to describe this way...but blonde waitress who worked on the patio this past Fri night...kudos! The NA options are phenomenal and I had a spicy something or other. Sooo good! Pizza was awesome! SO. MUCH. CHEESE! Cooked to perfection, right amount of crust. I was tempted to go back again on Saturday. Patio is fantastic, cozy and relaxing without being too chill. Only feedback then is to either put more signage up about seeing a hostess or remind servers to be kinder in reminding people bc ironically we saw multiple people that either did seat themselves or were confused on where the host stand was, and both servers and bartenders weren't particularly kind with their messaging. I can only assume they are tired of it bc it happens a lot, but saw a group that almost walked out due to feeling unwelcome when they asked the wrong person about a table. Not our server. She was the best. :) read more

Stopped here for a quick lunch and they took good care of us. There's inside and outside seating. Grinders, burgers and pizza are the main items. I ordered a small sausage and black olive pizza. Are you sure this isn't Wisconsin? Man was that loaded with cheese (no complaints). My wife had the red pepper hummus plate and instead of pita it is served with flatbread made from their pizza dough. It was covered in cheese! Nice selection of Michigan beers and the usual mass produced crap. Quick friendly service. read more

We had a great experience at Duffy's this afternoon. We were immediately seated and our server came to take our drink orders. I was pleased that they serve Brix soft drinks and I ordered root beer. My wife ordered a small 10" Mediterranean Goddess pizza; I ordered a small 10" Big Kahuna pizza and Stuffed Mushrooms for an appetizer. The Stuffed Mushrooms were delicious. They were served before our pizzas, piping hot in a ceramic dish and covered with ooey-gooey cheese. Our pizzas arrived, hot and they were loaded. They were delicious; lots of condiments and tons of cheese. We could only eat three slices before we were full. No problem, our server provided us with a to-go box (we had them for dinner that same night). The restaurant has a great vibe, decorated to match the restaurant's name, with license plates, hub caps, the grill of an old car. It was very clean and appealing with a beautiful view of the lake from the back outdoor patio. We will definitely return. read more

We've stopped in to Duffy's a couple times while in Petoskey but each time only to grab a drink at the bar, which each time, has never disappointed. They have a great bar set up and the bartenders are always extremely friendly! The happy hour specials are always a treat too. I've heard the food is great, but I haven't had a chance to experience it yet so hopefully the next time I go in, I'll get a chance to get experience their food. But for a drink spot? Definitely recommend! read more

Ordinary. Sorry, nothing to talk about here. AND, expensive. If you have Celiac, too many upcharges. The salad was nothing special and in fact, my wife sent it back as it had large pieces of lettuce. Seemed good at the start and then upon trying to cut and mix dressing, it was disappointing. The burgers were fair, fries as well (or cold). Burgers seemed to be premade. Not sure if homemade or not as they were very thin. The veggie burger was good, but needed some pickles, as did the hamburgers our friends ordered. The staff was ok, working very hard. But not enough staff. Sorry, we won't be back. read more

The pizzas here were great! This is a perfect spot for a casual and quick meal. We liked it so much our first night near we returned again the next night. Our servers were great. read more

Thought it wouldn't be fair to leave a poor review since the eatery was closed when Yelp indicated it was open -- so we returned and had a good experience. We started with an appetizer of stuffed mushroom caps, and they arrived at our table piping hot and covered with ooey mozzarella cheese. Quite delicious as the stuffing consisted of cooked sausage and spices. Next we ordered two 10" pizzas: the Big Kahuna primarily with ham, pineapple and green peppers, cheese and spices, and the Mediterranean Goddess with chicken, feta and mozzarella cheese, Kalamata olives, tomatoes, a few purple onions and Greek peppers. Both tasted quite nice and came on crispy, sweet and perfectly baked pizza dough. Our server was spot-on and ever-so-cheery. It would have been nice to sit outside on the patio; however, all the tables were occupied when we arrived. Instead we sat at a comfortable wooden table inside near the elevator. The only drawback: the dirty dishes station was directly behind us and one of the servers loudly clattered and clashed the dishes and silverware as she placed them into the trays. So overall we're happy that we returned, and we thoroughly enjoyed our food. We washed the pizzas down with a diet soda and some outstanding bottled root beer made in Michigan. read more

Quaint little bar and grille. One side covered in mechanics fashion with truck grade metal the other in metropolitan exposed brick. Decent burger but a sub-par salad. Very friendly wait staff, but they don't come around to check on you. Not good since us diabetic types drink a lot of water. Acceptable prices for Petosky. A cozy little treat in the downtown area. Next time through town we'll have to stop in again. 05/23 read more

We stopped here for dinner on our road trip. The place is fun and decorated uniquely. We chose to sit outside for the beautiful view. There was an upper and lower deck. The service was quick and attentive. We ordered the Boston burger, a pizza, spaghetti, and a grinder along with the buffalo dip. Everything was great. The only negative was that my husbands fry's came out cold but as soon as we brought it to the waitress' attention it was addressed and compensation was offered. Overall great experience, no regrets. read more

We were a group of 14 and Duffy's accommodated us easily. Our server, Lynnette, was a rock star! All orders were beautifully prepared, great cocktails and local beers. I had the olive burger with shoestring fries and my husband had a really nice side salad with his burger. We'll be back! read more

What a cool place! We were looking for a dog friendly place to have lunch at. They have a relaxing patio in the back that allows you to have your dogs join you. They even bring out bowl of water and treats for your furry friends. So I guess they are known for their pizza.... Which we did not have. I had their veggie burger which was delicious! So tasty and was even better with the sauce that came with it. The fries came with a Siracha sauce. Very good! The waiter was very attentive and friendly. A definite return to this place when we are back in Petosky! read more

We had a big group, so we tried pizza the heap of meats, the Hawaiian and the Al Caprese. One word: Wow. We are kind of pizza snobs, so this kind of praise doesn't come easily but I will say that their pizza is fantastic. We also highly recommend a spinach artichoke and a warm bread bowl. Mmmmmm Tasty! read more

Tonight I ordered "The Heap of Meat Pizza", loaded with pepperoni, ham, capicola, bacon, pancetta bacon, burger, sausage and added green peppers and onions. It was sooooo good. One of my new favorite places to go to. And a delicious adult beverage to go with it. The atmosphere was laid back and up beat. Ask for Stephanie as your waitress; she was awesome and was constantly checking in on us and making sure we were enjoying ourselves and our food. The chef himself, Rahfial, also made sure to come out and greet us and asked how everything was and gave us great customer service. I like to see when the person behind the art makes the time to come out to talk to his customers to see how everything is. Duffy's Garage & Grille is definitely a place you want to experience for amazing food surrounded by good people. read more

Service was decent but the food quality was not. I was very disappointed in the quality of the food considering the prices. The ambiance was pleasant and they have a lovely out dining area. We specifically went there because it advertised gluten free menu but their only true gf item was the burger buns. read more

We were seated within 5 minutes of waking in. We we seated in the back of the restaurant in basically a heated back room. After a large group next to us Lordy, we were the only ones back there and it was private. We ordered the hot honey pizza and it was phenomenal. When we were done eating, a random worker came and took my boyfriends drink glass and said she was going to take it - then walked away. It was really weird.... But besides that it was great food! Highly recommend the pizza - casual atmosphere - the back room area was private and inclusive - fast service read more

Delicious pizza, great bar food, nice variety of cocktails and great service! We walked in at noon and were immediately greeted and seated by a friendly hostess. The server was helpful, punctual and friendly as well. We had a side salad which was chock full of veggies and crisp lettuce, a deal @ $6.00 to accompany the mouth watering pizza. We tried the make your own veggie and Big Kahuna personal 10 inch hand tossed pizzas, which neither of us finished and happily packed up for a snack later! Great bar vibe with exposed brick, aluminum accents and old car parts scattered about setting the scene for Duffy's Garage. Located in super cute downtown Petoskey, we will definitely go back next time we're in Petoskey. read more

We walked around town trying to find a place to eat and decided on Duffy's. We asked for outdoor seating in the shade and it just didn't seem very clean. Those metal mesh tables might be hard to clean but it kind of turned me off. I got the small Duffy's salad with grilled chicken and my friend got a meatball grinder. The food was actually good and good size portions. Our waiter was okay but not great. We got our food five minutes before he remembered to bring us silverware and napkins. read more

We ordered 2 pizzas and cheesy breadsticks for take out. The pizzas were really good (forgot to photo) - basic pepperoni and the bbq chicken. We'd definitely order those again. The breadsticks were ok, not the best - think Olive Garden breadsticks smothered in cheese but they were tasty. If you're walking around downtown I'd definitely recommend stopping in. read more

The sandwich was alright and the coleslaw was actually really really good. However, my boyfriend ordered the bbq pulled pork sandwich and it was mushy and tasted more like a cheap sloppy joe. We ordered the large Duffy salad too for an appetizer and also added chicken to it. We ended up paying over 20 bucks for an iceberg salad with minimal toppings and little flavor. read more

We had the landfill pizza and spinach and artichoke. The dip was in a bread bowl and was great! Pizza crust was the best I ever had!

First time here and was able to eat outside with our pup! I enjoyed the chicken tenders and the Mc n cheese!

Upgrade to the beer fries!!! Oh my word!! addictive!! Other food is typical bar food. Average to good. not super great but if you are just going for a drink and a quick bite (after seating), I'd give it a go! read more

We were pleasantly surprised by the great experience we had here, it was our back-up choice when another restaurant was too busy. There was a short wait, we sat on the back patio which was dog-friendly and had a nice view. Beer-battered fries were delicious, stuffed mushrooms were fantastic, we tried three different pizzas and three different salads and everything was great! We'll come back again next time we're in town. read more

Fantastic place! Definitely one of the best pizza places I've been. High quality ingredients, generous amount, unique (good kind) flavors. The servers were friendly and helpful.

Service was like do one cared to be working there except the busboy who was polite and friendly. Meatball sub with tomato sauce , the tomato sauce was barely visible on the roll so sandwich was dry. My hamburger patty was well on one side and rare on the other side. Side salad was good and fresh . Just a lackluster all around, atmosphere , service, and food. To many other place that actually care. No purpose for another try, read more

Very mediocre. I gave 2 stars because it's overpriced otherwise it would have received 3. We had a long wait on a Monday, but service was attentive and quick once we sat down. Overall, I enjoyed my meal enough, but was not impressed. Decent view of the water. read more

Was looking forward to a good experience here at Duffy's but we were disappointed. Husband's meatball sub was dry, and wife's French onion soup in bread bowl was OK but the bread bowl also had dry crust. We were seated upstairs which was very chilly, especially when the door to the outdoor seating deck was opened and closed several times. I don't think we would return nor recommend, unfortunately. read more
