Serving Vancouver since 1987, twenty-four hours a day at the current location for the past fifteen years, Duffin’s Donuts looks like a stoner’s fever-dream complete with Fritters, Crullers, Sub Sandwiches, Tortas and even Fried Chicken.
The life’s work of Tony Chhuon and Paula Sim, Cambodian refugees much like the story of SoCal’s “Doughnut King,” it is once inside the Cash-only space that the hodgepodge unfolds, the fact that all the Pastries likely come a pre-mix not relevant to most but worth noting since Fritters lack Fruit and Maple Frosting has an artificial aftertaste.
Not particularly friendly either, a visible eye-roll when requesting Fries at 8:00am, Duffin’s Cruller is oily rather than eggy while Cake Rings perform only a bit better.
