Great drinks and atmosphere at Duffy's. They tout the largest selection of craft beer on the island. It's still not too extensive (coming from Wisconsin), so if that's your thing, this is your place. The cocktails were reasonably priced between $6-8 (most $6.50). Number one recommendation was The Perfect Storm. If you like Moscow mules, this is a refreshing twist. We were there on Easter Sunday afternoon and the bartender was very friendly and accommodating. read more

Waited and long long long time and service was subpar to bad. They were busy as some of the restaurants were closed but this was not good and the drinks took forever. The food was pretty good but plan to wait an hour for it. And it comes out at all different times. If something else is open, go there. We couldn't get refills or even water. read more

The staff here were great and the vibe was very relaxed. The fat boy fries were good for a late night snack after our biobay tour, but the drinks were the star of the show! Dan had one that came in an entire frozen pineapple, and my drink was like a creamsicle but with passion fruit instead of orange. Yum! read more

Ok I'll admit that I can never get my fill of mahi tacos and Duffy's are some of the best. Although the fried fish with a crispy crunchy batter is delightful I'm all in for the grilled version. After all I have to save some calories where I can! But really this is good all around food and if you're here on a Sunday the Bloody Mary is renown In addition to the food the staff are super nice too. Tamara on tables really knows how to take care of you and her quick wit is awesome. Janey on the bar is super nice too and a great addition to this crew. And the views...I mean really read more

We went there in group if 8-10 friends. This was good spot in the scorching heat of afternoon. The alcohol content in the cocktails was very low for their cost. The food was little slow, but was on average for 10dishes was fine. Good options for my vegetarian friends. Good for family with kids. Catch is though they say dogs not allowed but there were few locals(i guess) who got their (nothing negative, I love dogs). read more

Pretty average tourist food. Not particularly fresh as one might expect from an oceanside restaurant. The service was really nice though!

If I could I will give minus 5 stars. This place is terrible. Why? 1. Service. They expect you to almost clean the table where you are going to have dinner, bring your beer from the fridge ( because the beer list is not updated) and go to the bar to get it open. Then the server comes once she pleases and throws the plates at the table. 2. At the bar there was a guy with his infant in diapers. Sadly, soiled, you could see it and he is having the child sitting at the bar and then walking. Patrons are going to eat and place their hands in the bar. Gross and unsanitary. 3. Price. For the food quality and bland taste the price was outrageous. If you come to Vieques - which is wonderful- avoid this joint read more

Great restaurant! The service was fast and friendly, and the mahi-mahi fish tacos were BOMB. Solid cocktails too. Would recommend to anyone staying in Vieques. read more

I highly recommend stopping in here for lunch. We did before heading to sunbay/media luna/navio beaches. The fish wraps are great, you can sit outside and see the water across the street. I had the tuna wrap of the day, it was fresh and perfectly filling. The house made hot sauce compliments just about everything, it has a kick, so go easy. This is a great, laid back vacationy beach spot. Service is great, people are friendly. I might need to go back today. read more

Great bar for beer on a Saturday night in Vieques. After going on an all day eco tour, we were tired tourists, ready for an ice cold beer. Didn't try the food. Was walking along the street in Vieques and found a bunch of bars with music playing. Duffy's seemed to be one of the more popular places, so we settled into a table and enjoyed beer and great music. After a while, we got up and started dancing with some of the locals. Although we may have looked like fools, it was great foolish fun! We left Duffy's a couple times to walk around and check out some of the other bars, but we ended up coming to Duffy's for the great upbeat atmosphere and large beer selection. read more

Yay Duffy's!!! On a two-day excursion to Vieques (staying in the town of Esperanza), I ate at Duffy's no less than 3 times (lunch and dinner and dessert) My crew of 9 (a mix of omnivores, pescetarians and a vegan) almost always loved what we ate at Duffy's, we always loved our cocktails, left well-deserved enormous tips for our wait staff, and enjoyed just hanging out in this ultra-laidback restaurant and bar serving American fare with a Caribbean twist. Ever on the hunt for fresh greens while in PR, I enjoyed the special Caribbean salad for lunch one day, and ordered a meaty sandwich hold the meat and cheese add hummus one night for dinner. The waitress totally got my crazy dinner order and even hooked me up with extra hummus when she noticed the chef didn't quite deliver on the sandwich. The omnivore friends got anything from the fish tacos (loved them) to the pot roast (more love) to the tuna melt (a fresh hunk o' tuna pleased everybody). read more

This bar is fun: Great view, good drinks, good prices, really nice staff. The food is good, nothing special, but good bar food. This is a great stop to hangout and people watch. read more

I have dreams about the sandwich I ate here. My little sister & I stopped in for lunch after exploring the Malecon for a bit. After overdosing on local food, we decided to mix it up. We ordered the Shark steak sandwich special to split while enjoying the view. It was heaven. The shark was so tender and juicy, fried & seasoned perfectly. The fries we had with it were super crunchy and just what we were craving. We cleaned the plate. Nice beer list. I ordered something peach-y & light. It was cold so no complaints. The bartender and waiter was super friendly. This place is great. I look forward to the return trip. read more

Each time we visited Duffy's (three visits in a week-long trip), there were unavailable menu items or other issues (the beer cooler wasn't working one day so their selection was limited) BUT with other choices in Esperanza, we obviously returned for a reason. The staff was one of the top reasons to visit. We struck up great conversations with most of the bartenders and servers. They were always upfront about anything that wasn't available, etc. Duffy's offers a great, laid-back atmosphere with a beautiful view of the water. The items that we did order were always tasty. Duffy's is a pretty typical "bar food" type spot, but their food is a step above most of their peers. During our visits, we had the burritos (hummus and beef), a burger, a fajita salad and an Asian salad over noodles. Everything was good. We gave Duffy's 4 stars, not because it's a great 4-star restaurant, but it does what it does WELL. Duffy's is not the spot for authentic, local fare. It is, however, the place for a quick, very affordable meal and a fantastic selection of beer. For example, I enjoyed Lost Coast Tangerine and my husband got one of his favorites - Bell's Oberon We found Duffy's to be a great go-to for a quick and cheap meal. We had a couple nicer, expensive dinners while we were in Vieques, and Duffy's helped us stay on our budget! read more

Absolute lucky delicious food, it is familiar american with a puerto rico twist. I had the Garlic Parm chicken wings and the calimari and they were the best food i've had since we landed. Amazing service, incredible food, and bomb ass drinks. Ide come here ever day if we could. read more

Was in the mood for non fried food so stopped by here. They've got great cocktails, microbrews, decent pub fare and salads. Fish Tacos were great! They've been seasoned so it was almost like a falafel taco. Lol Chorizo appetizer was pretty good. The sausage was chewy and a little sweet, came on a bed of leafy greens Small Salad was fresh, green and colorful. They're cocktails were yummy! My girlfriend had a passion fruit cocktail which she really liked but can't remember the name to. Sorry guys. Good selection of beers too. read more

Great view, great chocolate. This accessible and conveniently located restaurant boasts recognisable American thoroughfare. I had a fried fish sandwich which was good, but the real gem is the chocolate brownie chunk cake. Its thick chewy goodness was thoroughly decadent and satisfying, such that I didn't even care that I probably ate my whole day's worth of calories during that one meal. There is also a $2 local beer. read more

Stopped by for lunch and had a chicken wrap with Cole slaw on the side. Food was really good. The waitress was super friendly and warm. Food came out very fast. Nice atmosphere to look out at the water and feel a bit of a breeze on a hot day. Highly recommend for food and service read more

Loved the lobsters here. The view is great too. I mean what's there to complain really. Enjoy your vacation, enjoy the food and view! Definitely coming back here next trip . read more

The food was excellent. Our server however was rude and seemed bothered by our questions of the menu and drinks. We had to ask other server for more drinks and napkins. Our server was sitting down at a table behind us chatting away. When we got our bill my friend was unclear on one of the charges and when she asked her to explain what it was she was so annoyed with us. I suggest sitting at the bar instead of a table. Looked like they had better service. read more

It's been four years since my last visit to Vieques and I'm sorry it took that long. Especially with a few new restaurants turning out high quality food options. Even Duffy's has upgraded their options. We visited here a few times during our 4-day visit and were never disappointed. ( Would have checked in but my cell service was spotty and Duffy's does not give their patrons the wifi code unless you are staying at their hotel. -.5 stars) With healthy food options, and great salads served with fresh lettuce and vegetables, we always had a reason to return. Their burgers were good and appreciated other options as well. The old standby is standing strong. read more

Great place to get tasty, authentic vegetarian and vegan food! We got the canoai (sp?), tostones, and beans and rice. This was our favorite meal on all of Vieques. It's family owned; with Elissa working the front and her husband in the back. Stephanie was also working the front and she was so much fun to chat with. Awesome staff, delicious food, strong drinks and right on the water for reasonable prices. It's everything you could ever want. read more

Probably among the best bar food around, especially on a small island. And a crazy good beer list. read more

The food and ingredients were very good. You can tell that everything was fresh. The menu has great variety and I ended up having the Mahi Mahi Tacos. My girlfriend had the wings and they were good also. I tried a drink called The Viequense. It was ok. The place has a full bar so you can order whatever you want. I enjoyed the sidewalk seating. Service was a little slow but other waitresses seemed to be on point. It's right on the strip in Esperanza so the area was full of people. read more

Had the following: Fish tacos with chips and dip Fried grouper with fries Overall, was pretty good. However, I was hoping for more authentic PR/vieques experience and less American beach front food. And it was definitely pricy for what it was. They seem like they're targtting the tourists, so they can charge more. The waffle fries were very tasty. The chips and dip were a bit undercrunchy. Fish tacos are okay; I've never really had spectacular fish tacos. I prefer the fried grouper over the fish tacos. Service was not bad and the view is great. This place is a worth a try, but there are other more authentic options that you will hopefully find. We had one meal in Esperanza and this was it. read more

This place is right below the Flamboyan Guest House which is where we stayed on our trip to Vieques, so Duffy's was essentially the first and last stop we made each day. The drinks are cold and good. Heinekan is traditionally a beer one would think of when in the Islands, but their keg of Heinekan was the coldest beer on the island. There are a lot of TV's which was great for the World Cup games that were on while we were there. The environment as a whole was fantastic because it is an open air bar with a view of the water. The food was good, not great. We ate a chicken quesadilla which was not the best, but certainly not the worst I've had. We also has a cheeseburger on our final day which was surprisingly good, and the french fries were nicely cooked as well. All in all a good place to stop for a few drinks and an appetizer. read more

First off, as of this writing, the map is incorrect. DO NOT expect it to guide you to the restaurant. However, since it's on the waterfront in Esperanza, it's easy enough to find. Great beer selection, including some local products. Cocktails looked interesting, but didn't try any. Good basic grub, including burgers and fish tacos. Some interesting choices on the specials menu, the fried Puerto Rican farmer's cheese with guava sauce was a particularly inspired invention that all four of us loved. Only two dessert choices, but both were good, however if you don't like chocolate, you're out of luck. Family friendly, especially if your kids are a bit adventurous, probably enough basics to keep the fussy types happy, but to be honest, didn't really look too closely since our teen and near teen both found something to eat with little trouble. Vegetarian options available as well. Great view across the street of the water and shore, particularly nice at sunset. Overall, a great little place. Don't expect world class cuisine, but they are good at what they do and show a flair for throwing a few interesting local options in the mix. An easy four stars that deserve a return visit. read more

Stopped in for a couple beers, staff was super friendly! Really cool & lively atmosphere. Only reason I gave 4 stars because the beers were a little more pricer than most of the other places on the strip. read more

Great view.. wonderful, quick and super friendly service. The food is delicious.. no authentic dishes really, but it's a great place for burgers and fries. The spicy shrimp wrap was pretty good too. Amazing drinks as well. Glad we stopped by! It's been our fave spot on the island so far :) read more

The food was good and the drinks as well. The staff was really nice and we were satisfied with everything. Our waitress also told us about others things to do. It was very helpful read more

This place is great, remember where you are. This is a bar/restaurant on the boardwalk of a tiny island. The servers are laid back, the food is good, and the craft beer selection is equal to none on the island. If you're expecting white tablecloth service and fancy food, go somewhere else. This is a flip flops and picnic tables kind of place. We enjoyed a great meal there, the fish wrap was probably the best I've ever had. We also hung out at the bar for snacks and drinks on several occasions and it was a good time. You meet other travelers, eat some yummy food, and relax like you're supposed to in that setting. read more

Duffy's became our home base for our stay in Vieques. Amazingly attentive service with friendly and relaxed staff that seem to truly enjoy each other and their work. Everything we ate and drank was fantastic; cocktails were incredibly on point and the beers always ice cold. I miss this gem so much already. read more

Service was slow at first, but the waitress was swamped. They have the best beer selection on the island! The place is chill with a great view of the water. The best part about this place is the locals... they mix with the vacationers! We ordered curry chicken pastelillios and bufallo wings...both were delicious and a must try. They don't have authentic Puerto Rican food, but what they do have is yum, yum in my tum, tum! Plus, they also have Ivan... he is a character! read more

I don't know where the hell YA'ALL went!!! This place rocks!!!! The food, music and libations were fantastic... Even my daughters chicken strips were awesome... And the service was un paralleled... The wait staff was engaging, funny and attentive ... Were were a party of 10 to include several old farts who are never pleased and even they had a good time... It is a must stop if you go to Vieques Island!!!! Woo hoo!!! read more

We loved everything about our experience at Duffy's! We tried quite a few of their cocktails, but our favorite was the Bushwhacker. It's a boooooooooozy treat. All of our food was fantastic, especially the fish tacos and their new Puerto Rican dishes. The staff are full of good energy and left us feeling like we wanted to stay forever. read more

Good place for cheap cocktails. What you would get in NYC for 14 you get here for 5 dollars. The glasses however. Oils be washed a bit better as they seem to only dip it in the water and shake it around a little. Haven't had the food here so I can't comment on that. Atmosphere is alright. Just a very casual bar. read more

Great seaside dining. Not fancy. Stroll up in your wet bathing suit and flip flops...order a parcharita (or a beer, they have a great beer selection) and sit on the wooden benches and watch people walk by while the sun sets. The fish tacos were excellent as was our fish sandwich. Highly recommend it. read more

My fish sandwich was really, really good. They said it was a fresh catch, a blue, green and yellow huge fish, and on the board it said it was a fried big eye deep fried snapper sandwich, with spicy tartar and fries. The bread was really soft and good, with fresh tomato and lettuce. My husband got the fish and chips- it was pieces of grouper fried but I thought it tasted really fishy compared to mine, but it did come with waffle fries which were really good. Fish sandwich is an A+! read more

Ordered seafood escabeche and Baja fish taco. I think we ordered the best dishes on the menu... Unfortunately I can only give 3 stars. Both the dishes were good but are in the traditional bar category, good for drinks, not so much for food. read more

The best food I have eaten on the island, I went there twice in three days:-). The burgers and sandwiches are amazing. The salads are on the pricer side but if you are not too hungry a great and tasty option (the mahi mahi option was amazing!). They also have a great beer selection and the suggested beer was delicious. read more
