Duffy's Tavern fared moderately well with a mix of commendable and critiquing remarks from various sources. While some appreciated the film for its nostalgic depiction of a beloved radio show, others found it lacking in terms of pacing and character development. Rotten Tomatoes commented that 'Duffy's Tavern offers a light-hearted escape to the bustling bar, with Ed Gardner's comedic timing shining through.' On the other hand, IMDb's rating of 5.8/10 suggests a divided audience on the overall execution of the film.
