We went to this establishment because we had a coupon. Well, I'll go again even without the coupon. I had the pizza entree which was delicious. The waiter knew about all the brews, drinks, and food and was spot on with his recommendations. Great selection of craft beers. I look forward to going here again on our trip back to... More

Didn't feel like going to the casino so I asked for a good local bar. I was told to try macduffs. It was a great bar the service, food, and atmosphere was great. I would recommend the fish n chip, pizza, and the bread pudding.

The place is small and has no wow factor for atmosphere, but the service was good and the food was great. The Mac and cheese appetizer was absolutely great. I had corn beef and cabbage which was the best I have ever eaten. The service was good and prices were reasonable. It is off the beaten path, but worth finding.

Let's get to the issue that bothered me, THE FLOOR! The floor is higher around the tables leaving it raised so that the chairs are uneven with floor. A man across from us (being that the floor is uneven) , while getting up, had his chair fall backwards. He hit his head on the floor! This seemed like it has... More

Outstanding isn't good enough. Fabulous has been used before. I'm not finding the correct accolade that this business deserves. I had 15 family/friends over to celebrate my birthday and not only did they locate us in a private area away from noise (so that I could be roasted properly), but they provided extraordinary service. Every guest had the option to... More

Trip Advisor has done me right once again. I had not been to Tahoe in three years and checked Trip Advisor to see if there were any new places - and found positive feedback on Macduff's. We drove for seven hours today and my teenagers are hungry. We did not want to go somewhere where we would have to wait... More

Arrived in Lake Tahoe on March 8, 2013, decided to try out MacDuff's Pub on Fremont Ave. as it was not there last time we were in the area. It is located off the main drag and in an old house/building. It is not exactly a "kids" place but our two and our friends two young children were great, a... More

In a few words ... Mouth watering Fish and Chips, incredible Corn Beef and Cabbage and to water it all down some incredible drink options. Hope these guys keep it simple and don't expand or anything. Oh and that dog that roams around (Bob) ... All part of the ambiance. Like I said ... WOW .... well done !!!!
