This place has the best stuffed french toast I have ever eaten. The food is delicious year after year, and it has such a wonderful ice cream parlor feel. The arcade is great to keep the kids occupied before and after you eat. When I see Duffer's miniature golf course, I immediately start singing "We Are The Pelicans".

We come every year for breakfast which is delicious and reasonably priced.. Have had their ice cream also - very good - huge portions... Love their mini-golf, and we always play in the arcade for awhile after we eat.. It's tradition. The restaurant is clean. The staff is very friendly. I think it is owned by christians as there is...

My son loved this place. They have a train going around the entire dining room. It is reasonable with fast and friendly service. And then they have kids arcade attached with pint sized air hockey. My kids had a ball.

This is a traditional stop by our family whenever we visit the shore. The food is always great, but the service can be a bit slow. It's usually very busy around breakfast and lunch time, so try and get there on off-peak hours. Portions are large, so be mindful of your order choices. Try the ice cream sundaes....fantastic!!

Old fashioned family restaurant and ice cream parlor, arcade and miniature golfing. The only place that has homemade ice cream; the sundaes are HUGE, a meal in itself. The food is good, portions (and prices) are a bit large, but the atmosphere is nice for kids. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner plus late night snacks. It gets crowded, parking... More

best of the best homemade ice cream on the planet - we had a party of 24 on a holiday weekend and I called ahead to warn them - they accomodated us in four large booths together with the best servers - some ordered food other than ice cream and others just the huge sundies with different ice cream flavors...

Love the Classic Ice Cream Sunday. My husband loved the banana peanut butter. They are gigantic! I ordered the classic for myself and my two little boys and still had some to spare. Great place! Food was good too. The train and tight rope clown entertained my little guys while we waited for our food to arrive. My three year... More

We have been coming to Duffers for years. We normally only get the Home Made Ice Cream Sundays. I can attest to the Waffle and Ice cream combo. Out of this world. These are homeade waffles not Store bought frozen and they are good. My wife had one of the fudge sundays and she loved it! Great place for our... More
