It’s been ages since I’ve been , but I used to work near Chinatown and Ba Le Sandwich shop had Vietnamese subs for $2. That was 15 years ago and I’m sure they’re not a twonie anymore, but gosh they were good and every time I went half the office would hand me their twonies and ask me to get them one.
I pass by Duffin's routinely, but it's always when I'm driving down Knight to Richmond, so I never stop in. It's gonna happen this weekend though. Boy, let me tell ya.
I was wondering when you guys were going to do Duffins! I agree with your guys' opinions, their fried chicken is incredible, the donuts are light and hits the spot. Their subs are surprisingly great too! I gotta try the smoothie next time. Great vid! thanks for making my day :D
Focusing on my chicken! That’s what I’m going to do today lol love their donuts love how they did not change much from 20 years ago when i first went there. Cheers!
Duffins is an institution… love their tortas . For fried chicken though try the spicy chicken at LA Chicken . For bonus points get a side of rice and top it with their gravy . On a good day you can take your chicken across the street and enjoy your chicken in the park . Best fried chicken in Canada .
I come over from Vic to play shows with my bandmates once in a while. I try to make at least 3 stops there in the course of a weekend. In. During. On the home. The absolute best.
Flying to Van on the 27th to stay with my best friend for a couple weeks, I will have to check this place out. Stumbled upon your guys channel recently and your videos are top notch quality. Been watching a bunch of them. Thanks for all the info on Vancouver eats.
Just found your channel. Love the editing, music choices, foodie content, and just the overall vibe of your videos. Coming up on 3 years in Van and still discovering hidden gem spots. Look forward to seeing more videos. LOL @ Order 66. Never forget.
I don't understand how you guys don't have millions of views. Such great content, and the two of you have such a nice, easy rapport with the camera and with each other. You definitely earned a new sub and made a new fan out of me!
You guys gotta hit up Northern Cafe and Grill, best hole in the wall in Vancouver. And also checked out Park Crest Diner in Burnaby, one of the last legit old guard diners.
You are so right. Duffin’s Fritou chicken is the best in Vancouver and surrounding areas. I’ll drive from South Surrey for it. Often stop when passing by on days I’m working in Vancouver for work. Their donuts are second place for me though. They have really good bubble tea.
I have to say i had driven by it very often but never stop by, but when u say fried chicken I'm in definitly tring it when I'm in the neighbourhood. Thanks for the genuine review. Subbed!
Great coverage as always! My friend introduced me to Duffin's around six years ago and it's been a recommendation of mine ever since. Place is absolutely slammin'.
I used to go there all the time, but if you order take out, check everything because twice they didn't give me everything I ordered. Their doughnuts were awesome, but for the last 10 years they charged extra for doughnuts with filling, so a dozen can really add up.
Delicious!!! Took my bro and sisnlaw here. They were super excited about it after watching this. It did not disappoint other than the fact that the Bavarian creams were sold out 😭
Duffin’s is glorious, but you guys oughta visit LA Chicken in Richmond. Hands down, indisputably the best fried chicken in YVR. Also, massive kudos for using Nujabes in your video!
I miss their beef stew when they had Chinese food on the right side of the counter. The Chicken is good too. I'm never around since moving away. Duffins was the spot 2am after lord knows what.. lol
i've never heard of this place before, though if they only have the one spot makes sense since i never drive into Vancouver cause the traffic is too bad.
The Fritou Chicken is pretty killer! Very crispy, and the spicy chicken is especially good. Not insanely hot, just a nice kick to it with great flavor... I went through MANY years, recently even, where EVERY time I was downtown, I would head home via Knight street just to drive by it and see if any of the day-old pack had bear claws in them. There were times I'd get 3 bear claws plus 2-3 other odd donuts mixed in for something like $4-$5... insane!! If there were NO day-olds, I'd still be grabbing a few pieces of chicken to take home. It was a no-lose situation 😋
Ive been going to this place since before they shutdown the Chinese food section. Always come here for late night chicken! I think its Fritous chicken, they MIGHT still have a location in surrey edit: confirmed! surrey has Fritou chicken locations!
Daaaaaamn what?! Thanks for our first donation. That’s crazy. We really appreciate it, and that money is going toward our next video we shoot. Cheers eh 🍻👊🏻
Where'd you guys go to high-school? I'm guessing west end so it's cool that you know of a David-thompson afterschool classic. Thanks for the vids on the hood guys. Keep it going, you'll blow up like downielive in no time!
@@reelininthebeers No way! You guys would have fit perfectly in a highschool like kits. If you guys ever want to do a cancucks vid next season I can grab the tickets and do it up. You guys seem like really sick dudes and we could do a food vid while your'e at if you want. Aboot the concourse or whats outside of the place. Would be a fun time!
In full honesty I don’t know a single person who looks up an address to a restaurant rather than just the name of the restaurant, which is in the title of the video haha. Just use Google Maps or Apple Maps and search “Duffins Donuts”. You will find it I promise!
lol I love how everything is so cheap except the donuts themselves at this donut shop, nearly 10 bucks for a dozen! 0:18 paused and I was like "Oh okay, reasonable prices, accounting for inflation, but they're really trying, I could see my welfare check being well spent h-- 9.50!!!!?????" I bet these donuts are self-heating or something, just gotta sit on em on the ride home.
Been to Duffins! Hot take, but Duffins Donuts is overrated... However love the history of the restaurant and will continue to support the family that owns it!
If anyone knows of any more cheap spots around Vancouver let us know! 🍻
House of Dosas on Kingsway has $6.00 a $6.00 dosa deal every Monday !
@@mozoiboy no doubt!
its in richmond but Golden Coin have not changed its prices in years, 4 dollar for breakfast or 10 for a full meal; also your music taste is legit
@@instrum2329 We will 100% go there. Thanks boss

After my first avocado smoothie, I didn't think I'd get another one. Now they're my go to.
Haha no doubt they seem to have that affect. We’ll see if I get there.
Now I need a donut 🍩
Duffin’s has been my go to for years. It’s the best
Hard to beat it!

Great vid! thanks for making my day :D
I need to try a different smoothie for sure. I think the other flavours would more my thing.
Cheers boss!
I always get a chicken burger combo with a poutine instead of fries!
I love my duffins.
Fuckin rights
Great video dudes! Hard to find a good sandwich for less than $12. Keep digging up these cheap eats
Thanks brotha 👊🏻

Based on this, I tried Duffin's yesterday. BBQ pork sandwich, piece of chicken, chocolate peanut donut and coffee. Excellent. Will be back.
Hell ya, glad you enjoyed man
I get sandwiches and donuts from Duffins at least once a week, this spot is LEGENDARY for GOOD REASON here in Vancity!!!...
II've passed by this place so many times but never been there. Will be going ASAP!
You won’t regret it
I come over from Vic to play shows with my bandmates once in a while. I try to make at least 3 stops there in the course of a weekend. In. During. On the home. The absolute best.

So glad I randomly found this restaurant driving by. Didn't know it still existed. Has my favorite fried chicken.
It’s the best.

Wow thanks! That really means a lot we appreciate it.
Me n the boys always pick up donuts n fried chicken when we goin back from Vancouver after a night of drinkin at the Irish bars
That’s what’s up
i used to go here all the time after school when i was young. so yummy
You guys gotta hit up Northern Cafe and Grill, best hole in the wall in Vancouver. And also checked out Park Crest Diner in Burnaby, one of the last legit old guard diners.
Thanks! Will do.
Duffin great video boys!
Those sandwiches are the bomb. The bbq tortas and Viet chicken are my faves
So good man
You are so right. Duffin’s Fritou chicken is the best in Vancouver and surrounding areas. I’ll drive from South Surrey for it. Often stop when passing by on days I’m working in Vancouver for work. Their donuts are second place for me though. They have really good bubble tea.
100%
Just a couple neighbourhoods away but I only just drove past otw to Richmond
I have to say i had driven by it very often but never stop by, but when u say fried chicken I'm in definitly tring it when I'm in the neighbourhood. Thanks for the genuine review. Subbed!
Thanks!!
I need a piece of that chicken to lose myself in the moment, I haven't talked to my dad in years and that hit home.
Get that Duff in ya
❤ Pastrami or Bbq beef sandwich. You can’t go wrong with fried chicken. Always look for day olds donuts, you get a lot for the price.
Fuckin rights
Great coverage as always!

And I LOVE their fried chicken too ❤
That’s cool I didn’t know that
That’s so cool 😎
Didn’t know they were still around
And still damn good too.
God damn, impeccable vibes as always bros!
Thanks man! Appreciate it.
I love Duffins Donuts. They also make great tamales.
I've seen birthday parties to bachelorette parties in here.

Exactly.
Just discovered you guys... love you guys already. Lol
Delicious!!! Took my bro and sisnlaw here. They were super excited about it after watching this. It did not disappoint other than the fact that the Bavarian creams were sold out 😭

Appreciate it man.
duffins lowkey has bomb ass chicken, people lowkey sleeping on the chicken. Their sandwhiches and donuts are amazing too!
Couldn’t believe how good the chicken was. Unreal.
I miss their beef stew when they had Chinese food on the right side of the counter. The Chicken is good too. I'm never around since moving away. Duffins was the spot 2am after lord knows what.. lol
When the weed store was behind Duffins you couldn't even get in there, I mean great business model!
Dude I remember that weed store. Great prices.
unironically they have the best fries in vancouver
i miss the days when the bubble tea/smoothie side was a chinese food restaurant .
So fair
@@reelininthebeers granted that was over a decade ago.
Underated fries at this place. Some of my fav fries 🔥
I’m not a fry guy but I had some fries and they are bangin
i've never heard of this place before, though if they only have the one spot makes sense since i never drive into Vancouver cause the traffic is too bad.
Fair enough brother. But it’s a good spot.

LONG LIVE DUFFINS
Where'd you guys go to high-school? I'm guessing west end so it's cool that you know of a David-thompson afterschool classic. Thanks for the vids on the hood guys. Keep it going, you'll blow up like downielive in no time!
Small town in BC but we’ve been in Van for a few years now. Thanks man 👊🏻
@@reelininthebeers No way! You guys would have fit perfectly in a highschool like kits.
If you guys ever want to do a cancucks vid next season I can grab the tickets and do it up. You guys seem like really sick dudes and we could do a food vid while your'e at if you want. Aboot the concourse or whats outside of the place. Would be a fun time!
@@seanl2940 that sounds unreal dude! Let’s connect next season for sure
@@reelininthebeers Sweet doods fr I'll PM or email you guys closer to the season
Sounds good man!
Damnnn I could use some fried chicken
EASTVAN staple b4 Tim's came to town...😃✊🏽👍🏼
When you guys make videos like this you gotta include the addresses too. Some of these places have no websites where we could look them up
In full honesty I don’t know a single person who looks up an address to a restaurant rather than just the name of the restaurant, which is in the title of the video haha. Just use Google Maps or Apple Maps and search “Duffins Donuts”. You will find it I promise!

Haha is that a lot for a dozen donuts? Cheapest I’ve seen I think.
In my book, Duffin's is waaaay better than Lee's or Honey's
We completely agree.
Buddy. Icing sugar?
Best chicken hands down
Great spot but I prefer Lee's Donuts. An Absolute classic for Vancouver.
Fair enough! I find they are way too overpriced for what you get but also a donut is a donut, all are gunna be at least good
@@reelininthebeers True about the price. I guess its that the focus then there is also better options somewhere hehe.
4:30 that's called powdered sugar 😆
01:34 Translate: I will take a bite out of this Chicken.
yall gotta get the teriyaki beef or chicken shits fire
Ya dude that’ll be the next one I grab
@@reelininthebeers best sub on the menu fr
Polite, cool dudes.
Cheers man.
Chicken Teriyaki or Machada sandwich 🥪
The day old spicy chicken is the fridge is so good too for $6
Been to Duffins! Hot take, but Duffins Donuts is overrated... However love the history of the restaurant and will continue to support the family that owns it!
Super fair man I used to think it was overrated but then I had a moment with the chicken and I don’t think I’ll ever forget it.
For a second I thought he was eating a deep fried rat in the Thumbnail
I miss duffins that place is Iconic. Langley sucks.
I’m sorry bro that’s tough :/
I refuse to believe anyone from the states has watched this video
lees is pretty overrated imo. there’s way better options in Vancouver like mello, lucky’s, and cartems.
We completely agree haha
Fuck...i just subbed....shit....fuck...
Fuck shit stacks baby
@5:37 your nails bruh lol
You likey?
Cheap and vancouver do not mix
Not really no haha
cut those finger nails
Nay
