About Buff
This is a spacious modern pub, popular with the local community along with live music on Friday nights. Other Greene King beers are sometimes available in place of the regulars.
Originally a prefab building, which was opened by Whitbread as a stopgap measure in 1950, and intended to serve the surrounding new post-war housing estates being constructed. This was replaced in 1960 by Whitbread with the current building, which has since been extended and modernised.
Named after the Buff Orpington breed of chicken that was first bred nearby by William Cook in 1894.

Myself, my son and daughter popped along for some lunch today. I must mention how friendly the bar staff were , the guy behind the bar was a really cheerful fella and the lady who helped bring out the food was also lovely asking if we’d like more drinks with out food and ran and got my daughter some water. Brilliant service from both with a friendly smile that you don’t get at a lot of places now days. The food took a while to come out but it was also lovely we cleared the lot! Would definitely recommend and will return again soon!

Held my daughter’s baby shower at the Buff in their function space on Saturday and couldn’t have been happier! Communication in the lead up was brilliant and on the day they couldn’t do enough. I had preordered the food prior to the function and even when I asked for more half way through they did it without any fuss. Nothing was too much trouble and they insisted on doing the clearing up too. Everyone has said what a lovely time they had, would definitely recommend 😊

First time to visit this place. Not impressed at all! Found what seems to be a hair on one of the chips. Veggies are not fresh. Found a tooth in our hotdogs. The man asked us if it was our tooth, we said obviously not. I was really worried as hubby and i already had a bite, he got our full names and contact number and said he will contact us back once he spoken to the supplier. We patienly waited but, It has been more than four weeks now but he never did

Friendly atmosphere with great service. Food prices are reasonable. We went with the kid roast meal, cheese burger and 3 small plates. Squid could be a little bit crispier, burger could be grilled a bit less but in overall it was a good meal.

Popped in on the way back from a hospital visit & my word the food was delicious place looked so pretty full of Christmas spirit Had mango chilli chicken tacos just so tasty & hubby had the blue cheese burger equally delicious well worth trying the chocolate mocha brownie with coconut ice cream. Spotless glasses & really friendly staff look forward to our next visit
