I absolutely love going to Old Buff! They have great food; a full bar; and friendly, hard-working waitresses. The rustic decor is welcoming, and their patio is large and beautiful. I am always recommending this bar/restaurant to friends! read more

Really enjoyed our first visit! We ordered the spiced old fashioned cocktail special. I was a little skeptical because they use small ice cubes, which can tend to water down the drink, but they were really good! I had two! Sufficiently strong and not watered down. The onion rings appetizer were really good. Make with real onion, not chopped, pre-processed. Nicely breaded and crispy. My husband and a friend had the Thursday bbq rib special with Mac & cheese and slaw and they cleaned their plates. I got the traditional wings and requested them well done. They cooked them perfectly. The buffalo sauce is different, but really delicious! Maybe the best I've had! Towards the end of our meal we discovered it was bingo night! We played and it was fun! The only problem for us was being seated near the front of the restaurant so it was a little hard to hear the gal calling. Perhaps an extra speaker near the bar would help. Overall, our first visit to Old Buffalo was a success! It won't be our last! read more

Pretty decent bar, friendly staff and good food. I've eaten here a couple times for lunch and got takeout several times. They have a steak sandwich on special now that is really good. Their fries are pretty decent. I wish they were crispy. They have a solid hamburger and their tenderloin is good. I tried the tuna out and it was disappointing. They do have cowboy beans as a side and they're pretty good but you don't get a lot. I really do think they skimp on the sides except for fries. read more

Old Buffalo Outpost is a locals watering hole, with lots of staff and patron familiarity. The food was acceptable and the service was good to average. The outdoor seating area appears to be a new addition. Inside is wooden classic bar/pub finishes accentuated with simple decor. The restroom is tiny and cramped. I stopped here only because a business associate organized a lunch here which was convenient to nearby work location. read more

Sat at the bar, place was packed Thursday at noon when i arrived, regulars, and food was coming out fast! I got the Buffalo flavored wings, char fired with blue cheese and onion rings with a side of their white bbq. Straight FIRE! I will be bringing my wing loving friends back!!! Draft beers were tiny, which frustrates me.... Zero complaints otherwise! read more

On my quest to eat at every restaurant in the area, I had to tick this one off the list at some point and that time was now. The reviews I checked sounded pretty good, and I expected a townie lunch crowd. And that is what I experienced (some regulars even said "see you tomorrow" to the bartender on the way out). Biggest takeaway for me is, man, this place was *nice* on the inside. Very classy/newer interior. Well located TVs, two somewhat separate zones in which to sit plus the bar, and two outdoor seating areas for when the weather is nicer. Really, really good place on the inside. Possibly the best interior layout/decor of any restaurant in town. Service was fast and friendly for a weekday lunch. I tried wings and a pork tenderloin sandwich with fries. Both were about what you would hope for from looking at the place. Delicious. This is a comfortable, yet fun atmosphere. Great service, I really was impressed. I will be back. read more

One of my favorite places. Food is a step above regular "bar food". Go for the specials. Prices are very reasonable. Customer service is outstanding. read more

The food is consistently delicious and the service is fast and friendly. We are always greeted when we walk in! The vibe is chill and relaxed. Old Buffalo is definitely one of my favorites! You know a restaurant is good when you see a lot of men and older folks eating at a place. They know what's up! read more

Great food, great service and very friendly environment. My wife and I have been dining here for almost 10 years and it just gets better with age. They truly understand how to treat a customer. read more

Amazing food, atmosphere, service, social vibe..Love the owners and staff. Shelly is the best chef ever

Amazing food & amazing service! The wings are the best wings in town. The angus burger is phenomenal!

My band The B-Burgs played there Thursday night. Very nice and clean inside and out. Beautiful outdoor patio area. We had the brisket dinner with Mac and cheese and coleslaw. The brisket was delicious and very tender, Mac and cheese was very good and coleslaw was the best I've ever had. Unfortunately I didn't get our waitresses name but she was top notch. Very helpful and pleasant. read more

We celebrated our 50th Class Reunion here. The best Cadillac margaritas, so smooth! oh, and the food is good too!

I needed a quick lunch and Ild Buffalos Outpost came through with flying colors. Lunch special was prime rib. Very reasonable for a lunch portion and I was served almost instantly. I sat at the bar and the bartender was great, friendly and efficient. I only ate a little because I wasn't all that hungry but knew this was my only chance to eat. When I asked for a box she was genuinely concerned that I didn't like the food. (She asked twice.) if it wasn't good I wouldn't want a box. read more

5 star for employees, food, service and atmosphere a long with the summer nights on the patio listening to the bands. The only place to be!!

My first time trying Old Buffalo and I was not disappointed. Really good tenderloin, that wasn't huge but well made. Super thin sliced onions were on point. I would order the buffalo chips next time, as they looked fire. Support local and try this place for lunch or dinner! read more

Stopped in for a quick meal. Very nice atmosphere. Top notch waitress. Food was excellent enjoyed a tenderloin it was very good. Hamburgers were very juicy and made to order. Chicken wings were made with just the right amount of spice. The f try its we're hand cut and fried both crunchy and soft on the inside. I would highly recommend this place. We all ordered cokes but one person wanted a cherry coke it was made to order it was served with a cherry in it. One of the best cherry cokes. Would definitely recommend . Attention to detail and service top notch. read more

I had the Catfish, Chicken Wings and Buffalo Chips! The food was just good to the last bite! Great service and the ambiance was just about as ordinarily as ordinary gets! I enjoyed the place and plan on returning as often as I can because the food and service was just that damn good! No pretense, it's just what it is.... read more

I always love checking the daily lunch specials for this place. Great value for your money and the food is always amazing!

Service left less to be desired until the bartender walked around and took care of us from across the bar, she definitely turned my opinion about the place completely around! Environment is really nice as well, such as the crowd the place attracts :) Also, in case you're here for food, here is a pic of their weekly specials! read more

Old Buffalo Outpost Bar & Grill - menu - Pubs Near Me - Lafayette, Indiana

I can't give any place 5 Stars if I have not eaten the food. As an offshoot for Sgt Preston's downtown, the food menu is a cousin of the downtown menu. Yuengling draft was cool, not quite cold. Decent, older crowd at dinner time on a Saturday night. Everyone was very personable and friendly. A very laid-back type of vibe. This seems like a good place to meet friends and family for dinner in the evening. Tonight there here is a large party/reception going on at The Outpost next door so while we have sat here parking has become more of a challenge-just a heads up. I look forward to coming back and eating sometime. read more

Great food, great prices, great service. We went on Monday evening and I had two bbq taco's. Wife had pulled pork sandwich w/fries. The Thursday special was ribs and also Mac & Cheese with pulled pork or brisket. They were very tasty and we took some home for lunch the next day. Both were large servings for a reasonable price. Decent tap beers. We're going back Monday for the wings and draft beer special. read more

I stopped here for lunch with some old dear friends. They picked the place. The server was very friendly. The wings are good and my friends raved about them. The restaurant is operated by the same people who operate Sgt. Preston's and the Outpost catering facility (it's next door, hence the Outpost in the name). The atmosphere is a typical pub and the food is very good. I would go back here for lunch sometime. read more

The review is only a 3 strictly due to the lack of service. We arrived about 4:30 thinking we would beat the dinner rush. They were actually pretty busy with mostly drink customers. Only one server was covering the floor. There was quite a wait just to get acknowledged and our drink order in. The cavalry arrived at 5pm or a little after. It still took quite a while to get our food ordered. Our original waitress passed us off to a newly arrived one. She proceeded to take later arrivals first and spent time socializing. I think she prioritized regulars over others. Maybe there was no communication and she didn't know who should have been first. Once she finally acknowledged us she did a good job taking care of us. If the review was only based on service, it would be a 1star overall. While we were waiting for our server, other orders were taken, one circulated collecting money for a drawing at 6 pm, and other seemingly less important tasks. The menu is creative. The food was tasty and fresh. We ordered pulled pork tacos, breaded tenderloins, and fresh cut fries. The quality of the food and ambiance of the place regained some of the rating. Bottom line, with a little more attention to the server schedule, this could have been a 5 star rating. It really should have been. One more server before 5 would have made a huge difference. read more

This is what happens when you take a completely unexceptional idea -- a neighborhood bar -- and do it very very well! The food is not just good, but great. The place is not just comfortable and clean, but spotless and charming. The wings were great. And the award-winning brisket chili deserves the awards it got. Also, they have an enclosed -- but completely segregated -- section for smokers. This is more important that you'd think. At a lot of bars, smokers congregate just outside the front door. But this doesn't work as well in practice as it does in theory, since the smoke wafts in every time someone comes in or out. At Outpost, the smoking section is a separate room with a separate door -- and whether you're inside the bar or outside the front door, you wouldn't know it's there unless you looked. Please note: The placement of this place on Yelp's map is incorrect. It's not on 231, but rather, on "Old 231", just at the intersection with Elston Road. read more

I love this bar a great place to have a fun night out with the hubby and chill very laid back hole in the wall type of bar with a jukebox ,great bar tender ,and good food read more

This is a pleasant place to get a nice meal at an affordable price. It's a casual and comfortable environment, with a nice bar that offers People's Brewery beer on tap. The menu is straightforward bar food (burgers, wings, chili, among other things) and they do an excellent job at these items. I had a bowl of chili and it was pretty much one of the best chilis I've ever had in my life. I'm typically not a big chili fan, but Old Buffalo's was excellent enough to make me change my mind. It's a beef brisket chili and included four (yes, count 'em, four) different types of beans, including my favorite, giant white beans. There's something charming about taking a normally small food item and supersizing it, and beans are especially good in this aspect. At any rate, the chili was amazingly rich and savory and made a into a convert, at least for Old Buffalo's chili. We also ordered a plate of wings and they were excellent too. All this, along with speedy, friendly service and a dining room that was polished till it shone made for a nice dining experience. And while I'm not a smoker, I did notice that there was an enclosed smoking area (looked to be a temporary type of structure) separate from the dining room. I don't endorse smoking, but I appreciate that they made this space for their smoking customers. Here's why. The fact that OBO made a separate enclosed space is significant for two reasons. One, it shows that they are making an effort to take care of their smoking customers (giving them a space to smoke and not have to stand in the freezing cold during winter). Two, the separate enclosure makes it such that the smokers don't hang out right at the entrance of the restaurant to smoke. This is important, because if people smoke near the entrance, the smoke gets sucked into the dining room every time someone goes in or comes out of the restaurant. Thus, the separate enclosed area benefits the nonsmoking clientele as well. So while I'm not a smoker, I recognize that OBO's intention is to make their establishment a space that all customers can enjoy. This shows a level of foresight and careful planning that is rare in the world. Thanks OBO, from a nonsmoking new customer! read more

A pretty good two pool table Nascar bar that is worth a stop to eat snd see sport. I found this gem riding around town and they have a party building next door. A great neighborhood bar read more

The food is cheap and if only you like smocking. I will not be going again.

FUN, FULL OF POTENTIAL Casual, neighborhood pub and grill.... Good place to grab a bite and a beer. Smokers welcome. Patio, pool tables, jukebox and occasional Karaoke offered. Old Buffalo Outpost has a lot of potential.... It's the type watering hole you'd like to own yourself... to improve a little here and there... and see if it couldn't be taken to the next level without losing its charm. read more

Stopped on a whim--kind of tired of chain/fast food places. It was smoky and the jukebox was loud. My cheeseburger and fries were delicious. The waitress was working the bar and the tables by herself, it was lunchtime but she brought us buffalo chips because we had to wait a little. They were surprising good--not a fan of food that is too spicy. The menu choices are limited--sandwiches and appetizers but that made the decisions easier. It has outdoor seating, big screen TVs and pool tables and the people seemed to be regulars enjoying a beer at lunch. It is not fancy but I bet it is a busy, fun place on the weekend read more
