Wings Plate
Marc S.

First time stopping at Buff's in a few years - still good! Really enjoyed the Wings plate with onion wings, sauce Buffalo Xtra Hot (which is not SUPER hot, but just right). Salad was also good, fresh vegetables and a good size. Friendly bartender - thanks Eduardo. FYI: They DO take credit cards these days, no need to worry about cash.

Buffalo Wings

Buff's Pub in Newton is a must-visit for chicken wing lovers! Their wings are consistently praised for being juicy, flavorful, and available in a variety of delicious sauces like Honey Hot and Buffalo. The wings have a great crispy texture without being overdone, and the sauces strike a perfect balance of heat and taste. Beyond wings, the menu offers tasty burgers, salads, and classic pub sides like sweet potato fries. The vibe is casual and lively, with plenty of TVs showing sports, making it a great spot for gatherings or catching a game. The staff are friendly and welcoming, though it can get busy during peak hours. Just a heads-up--they only accept cash, which is a bit inconvenient but doesn't detract from the overall experience. If you're in Newton and craving top-notch wings and a fun, laid-back atmosphere, Buff's Pub definitely delivers.

It is all set up for a Sunday football game with five televisions. Wherever the seat, there is a view of one of the screens. There are meters in front with free parking on the side street. It had a rustic look with barn boards on the walls and wood through out. Tables are out front on the sidewalk. I had the buff cheeseburger with Greek salad. The Greek salad was a four dollars more for the substitute. The burger was less so it all evened out. I would definitely return.

Really can't get better wings in the Boston area than Buff's. I've never had any other item on their menu and probably never will. No thrills, Buff's is simple and perfect. The place is always busy and doesn't take reservations. You will have to wait a while, so put your name down with them at the front, grab a drink, and watch a game. I usually get the wing plate with Nashville hot sauce. Highly recommend for wings and good times!

Buff's Pub. A great establishment. Came for the wings, indulged in the wings. We got the buffalo, honey hot, bourbon peach bbq, bbq, and the teriyaki. They were all super crispy and the sauces were excellent. The beer and alcohol menu is excellent. There were tons of IPAs to pick from. We love this place and will come back here any chance that we get!! 10/10

Chicken Pesto Sandwich

Didn't get a chance to est in person, but had the Chicken Pesto Sandwich. Very solid, different than other chicken pestos I had, would get again.

The place is small but is known for the best wings in boston. I tried to go one evening a few months back and they told me a 1hr wait lol NO considering there's about nothing around there. So this time around I decided to get it when they open. Service was okay but I give it to the fact the server said they just started working there 2 days ago. Since they weren't busy the wings came out in like 2 mins which was interesting. So the food. Well...They were wings that's for sure. I know the wing sauces I got and yet I couldn't figure out what I was tasting. The flavors did not stand out and I swear one of them which I suspected was the peach bourbon bbq was actually buffalo and they got my order wrong. I'll never know because the check just listed small wings sets but online the buffalo wings looked like what i got. I won't be back but glad I finally went and put my thoughts to rest. Life is full of wins and losses, you just keep moving. What I got Lemon pepper garlic parmesan wings Peach bourbon bbq probably buffalo wings $ Food 4 Atmosphere 5 Service 4

Caesar wrap

Best wings around. No context! The restaurant is always crowded, so we usually get takeout, which is always pretty quick.

Food portions are large. I would prefer they reduce size and lower price…read more The chicken pot pie was excellent, filling and full of chicken, Vegetables. I saw the size of Shepard's pie dish and was two portions, the beef stew is huge, outstanding. Chicken parm with pasta huge... I'd enjoy 1/2-2/3 of portion and lower price now a-days . All is good, beers, food, vibes, staff. 16 oz beers look small with head on top. I wasn't given the specials menu with the normal menu... I wanted the beef stew and wasn't on regular menu ... was on specials ... Bartender should have assured I was given it... his annoyed me when I saw someone ordered the beef stew...

This was our first visit to O'Hara's as we were in town from CT for an appointment. We chose thanks…read moreto a Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint! We started with the pretzel bites and a curl of French onion soup (so sad I didn't get a photo). Both delicious although the cheese sauce for the pretzel bites was a bit thin - the flavor was there though. The French onion soup was delicious! The first spoonful made my tastebuds dance! The bread in the soup tasted like rye which ended up being a nice touch. They also did not skimp on the cheese! For our meals, my wife got the French dip sandwich handheld which she enjoyed. She was only able to finish half. I couldn't decide and asked our waitress to decide for me from shepherd's pie, chicken pot pie, and the London broil. She talked me into the shepherd's pie due to the weather outside and the fact that it is so big, I would definitely get to take home leftovers. This dish was huge! From the first spoonful, the taste of the sirloin/potato/demiglace was perfect. This is definitely a hearty dish worthy of a winter's night! From the smile on the host's face when we walked in, the ambience with the wood, windows, and lights, and our wonderful (and attentive) waitress, our visit to O'Hara's was definitely one we would like to replicate!
