Duffy's Sports Grill

The original “Duffy’s Drafthouse”, was founded by two childhood friends turned business partners in Lake Park, Florida in 1985. From the beginning, Duffy’s Drafthouse became known for “The Coldest Beer” and “Best Burger” in town…and it was wildly popular. In 2001, Paul Emmett, a successful restaurateur with the New York City based Restaurant Associates was looking to branch out on his own and develop a chain of casual dining restaurants. After being introduced to the Duffy’s Drafthouse business partners, Paul Emmett bought a controlling interest in the company and jumped right into rebranding the concept as Duffy’s Sports Grill. The combination of quality dining, memorable hospitality and sports has proven to be a successful recipe for us. Recognized as the premier sports themed restaurant concept in South Florida, we continue to expand with locations from Miami to Melbourne.
