Our History
The name Duffy’s began with my grandfathers’ bar in Haverhill, Duffy’s Tavern - a fixture in downtown from 1946-1976 and the beginning of three generations of restaurant service in the Merrimack Valley.
Fast forward 34 years, in 2010 my sisters and I named our childhood dog…Duffy. Duffy was a big, friendly Chocolate Lab with unmatched energy and appetite. He was never the smartest dog on the block, but Duffy was as sweet as they come. And always very popular on sunny days down at Salisbury Beach.
When it came time to name our breakfast restaurant, we knew there was no better option than to honor our grandfather, and Man’s Best Friend…hence, Duffy’s Diner was born!
The Goal of Duffy’s Diner is to provide great, quality food at an affordable price. Everyday we serve our friends, family, and neighbors; therefore, we don’t tolerate shortcuts or subpar ingredients.
We cook with Butter, Milk, Fresh Eggs and Produce, hand-cut potatoes, the best quality breads, and countless other examples of superior home cooking.
We take care of our guests through good food, kind, efficient service, and the most reasonable prices around.
Life ain’t always easy. Duffy’s Is.
