Choosing Duffy's for our dream beach wedding was absolutely perfect! Right from the get-go David "Duffy" was easy to talk to, quick to respond by email, and very informative. They ...
offer a Ceremony package that included shuttling my guests in the OOB Trolley's to a spot on OOB that they get a permit for you from the town and they do all the set up and breakdown of chairs, arbor, and any other decor you might want. The officiant fee is also included in this and he has some ready to recommend and ours was so great. The galley ballroom at Duffy's Tavern was a very nice setup for our reception. Plenty of parking and the AC felt very nice after a very warm wedding ceremony on the beach. The food and service was five star also. I heard much good feedback from my guests about the prime rib, chicken, and salmon dishes. My husband was even excited to eat the leftovers from guests who could not attend last minute. They handled cutting my three tier cake professionally, as everyone got similar size and not broken slices. The bartender was friendly and on-point (no weak drinks were made!) I was even told that the waitresses offered hair ties to a few of my guests who's hair had suffered from the heat on the beach, which they were very thankful for. A great time was had by all and I couldn't be any happier with my choice of Venue! Thanks Duffy!
We had such a phenomenal time! Duffy and his team definitely exceeded our expectations for our wedding and reception in July 2018! The whole day was such a dream and the service of...
all the staff was incredible.
The beach set up was beautiful! We did hear from some guests that showed up first that they were feeling bored. While this is no fault of theirs, it may be worth having the DJ/band show up early enough to set up at the room and still have time to settle into the beach to play music for the early guests.
The room set up was even better than we imagined. Everything looked so great put together. I don’t think I ever saw our candy jars emptied - and I saw it go down quickly even before dinner! We can’t be more thankful for the attention to detail.
We and our bridal party really appreciated a particular server, Chris’, attentiveness! He did a fantastic job with keeping an eye on us and making sure our meals were perfect. We heard many comments about how the bartenders were wonderful and that the food was delicious.
We are just thrilled with how everything went perfectly!
It's hard to put into words the amount of gratitude we have for Duffy and his employees. We had our wedding here a few weeks ago and it was nothing short of magical and far exceede...
d our expectations. From start to finish Duffy himself was hands on and involved in all aspects, making sure myself and our families had everything we needed/wanted. They perfectly executed everything I imagined and to top if off the food, drinks and service provided were superb. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding reception!
My sister recently had her wedding reception in The Galley Ballroom and i can not say enough about how amazing everything was. The food was outstanding but it was nothing compared ...
to the service we received. Duffy himself was amazing beginning to end! No detail went overlooked and he did everything he could to be helpful and accommodating. The waiters and waitresses were beyond friendly and attentive. Dylan, the bartender for the reception, was friendly and outgoing to every guest. I would recommend Duffy’s 10 times over for any occasion after this experience! Thank you for everything, my whole family was beyond thankful for everything!
Trish was amazing and made our dreams come true! Perfect low key venue to truly make your own! Wouldn't have changed a thing!

Trish helped us with every question and concern and made us feel so comfortable during the planning process. I was so nervous that I would be focusing most of my time on the planning and be overwhelmed. She was incredible and made the planning stress free and took care of everything from literally day one when I took my tour, to when we were leaving the reception after our wedding day.
The reception hall was beautifully decorated, the food was incredible and the staff was professional. They made all our guests feel like they were always taken care of.
For food we chose the sirloin steak, haddock
with lobster sauce and the baked mac and cheese. All of my guests kept saying how the food was some of the best they've had.. which made me so excited since I'm a foodie and have had my share of bad wedding food. Trish even had her staff box up the wedding food for us! We were able to enjoy our food after the wedding and our guests had some much needed grub after a day of partying.
Overall, I am so thankful I chose Duffy's for our dream beach wedding. We are recommending this place to all of our friends in the area!!
Thank you Trish, and to all of the staff at Duffys! You made our wedding day perfect.
Simply amazing place; and wonderful stuff to work with! We had our rehearsal dinner in the fireside room and it was such a cute room and delicious food and awesome wait staff. And ...
the next day had our wedding reception in the galley ballroom, there are not enough words to describe how beautiful and simply perfect the room was decorated for our big day. And the food was amazing! My husband and I had people coming up to us all night saying how gorgeous everything look and are still talking about how amazing the food was. And I cannot say enough good things about the staff; so attentive, helpful and truly made our wedding day so easy and took all the worry off of us. Truly love this place; they made my husband and I special day PERFECT!!!

nt and spoke with Trish. I knew right then that this is where I wanted to have the wedding. She handled every thing and more than a month later I still have friends and family talking about how wonderful it was.

wing that someone cared, and they really did, it was evident every time we walked into Duffy's. The room looked beautiful, simple yet elegant. The food was AMAZING! We went with a comfort food buffet, a month later our guests are still raving about the food! During the reception we had no worries, we were just able to enjoy our night. I would HIGHLY recommend Duffy's, our day would not have been as good without them!!
