Omg the beef tips are to die for here!!!!! The service was top notch, very cute and themed inside and it was easy to find! The butter beans were also delish and the cornbread. My crawfish poboy was okay. And I say that because I wasn't expecting a full potato slice so it was extremely hard and messy to eat lol. Overall I would definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Traveling from Houston to New Orleans, Lake Charles makes a great stop for lunch. After a Google search, Buffi's looked like it had potential. Pretty easy to get to when traveling east on I-10. We found easy parking, Buffi's is at the corner of Broad & Bilbo Street. Great vibes right from the get go. There's a pretty mural on the side of the building, great photo op for those that are doing it for the 'Gram. The interior is cutely decorated, black and white checkered table cloths. It's self service at the counter. After looking over the menu, we decided on a small bowl of Shrimp & Corn Chowder along with a full size All American Peauxboy. I'm not a corn guy but my wife said the chowder was delicious. The Peauxboy was fantastic. If you would have told me the bread was baked an hour before I ate the sandwich, I would have believed you. It was so fresh & so delicious! We might have a new stop for our roadtrips when headed east. It was a great first meal on our weekend getaway. read more

This is a cute little place worth the short trip off I10. We all had the remoulade shrimp po-boys. The "reauxmoulade" sauce is made in-house and is delicious, I bought some to bring home to Texas. The bread was outstanding, warm and crunchy. The shrimp was done well, but we all agreed the sandwich would have been better served warm. We bought the caramel cookies which we shared and enjoyed. They also served a plate lunch with pork steak I would have loved to try but I couldn't resist the "Peaux boy". read more

Super cute spot! Love the interior vibe. Got the Buffi's sandwich w gravy and split with my hubby. It was yummy. Next time we are trying to kick in chicken potateaux. Great service and seems like folks do order ahead and carry out as well. read more

This was our first of many to come times at Buffi's Peauxboys! What a great experience, we walked in and were immediately greeted with a smile and what to expect. You walk up to the counter and order, there is a big bulletin board with the menu written on it or you can get a paper copy. Everything we ordered was so fresh and frankly Cajun done right! From the sliced deli and homemade reauxmoulade to the fresh out the oven French bread! The ambiance had the perfect French Cajun feel and made us feel like we were at a friends house. Do not sleep on this bistro, great people and food! Side note, the watermelon lemonade is *chefs kiss* read more

Found this little gem on yelp and it did not disappoint! it's in a more historic looking area of lake charles- super cute inside- casual which is exactly what we wanted on our road trip- local spot with delicious local food! Excellent southern hospitality to go with it!! Now let's talk food- we tried the reauxmeloude shrimp peauxboy with the sauce on the side which i think was perfect because it wasn't as messy so it's a nice option. We also split the cabbage soup and the shrimp chowder soup- the cabbage was the winner between the two- more flavor. We split the 12 inch sandwich which was so good that we probably could have eaten another one. The 4 kiddos split a 12 inch shrimp all american which was a good size for them. They do have a kids menu but we wanted them to experience the local food and they love shrimp. i was going to buy some cookies but found out they use spray butter/not real butter to make them so decided to pass. I wish they wouldn't use the styrofoam but i understand the practical part of it- however, paper cups would also work super well which would be my personal preference. in addition, i didn't see a baby changing table in the bathroom which would be helpful for many. Just a few minor things i would love to see to help improve this place but overall it's really an excellent local place to visit ! highly recommend! read more

Went here for lunch bass in yelp reviews and they didn't disappoint. They love boys were the best. We order shrimp remoulade and crawfish boil. Both were great. The crawfish had potatoes and corn like a boil on the bottom on the bread and the shrimp remoulade was delicious too with a drink a chips. The ambiance was a mom and pop store and the service was exceptional! I definitely recommend this place for lunch anytime and will be back. Thank you for wonderful time and food. read more

This place does Cajun right! I hate when places claim to have Cajun dishes and they have no spice or flavor. You will find spice and flavor here! I really love the crawfish poboy and the kickin chicken poboy, both have good spice to them. Their cookies are also amazing. The staff are always very friendly and helpful and the the building is really pretty and cool. read more

Decent po'boys, but not the best. They got behind a bit with a few people inside, but we eventually got there. They do however need to make an effort to clean the bathrooms. read more

Buffi's Peauxboys - Shrimp Reauxmoulade Peaux Boy - Sandwiches Near Me - Lake Charles, Louisiana

If you're ever passing through town, do yourself a favor and stop at Buffi's Peauxboys. I couldn't recommend it enough. From the moment we walked in, the experience was smooth -- we were seated and served within minutes. The staff was friendly, the service fast, and the vibe welcoming. Wanting to try the best of the best, we asked for the most recommended dish and landed on the Kickin' Chicken. It absolutely lives up to the hype. Perfectly seasoned, crispy, and full of flavor with just the right amount of heat -- it's easy to see why it's a local favorite. Whether you're a local or just driving through, Buffi's delivers on both taste and hospitality. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back before you've even left. read more

Fantastic little restaurant. Buff's PO Boy was great. Just go. You will enjoy. Service was super fast.

We ordered for delivery to our hotel after an exhausting day of driving in ungodly heat and humidity. I can't speak of service or ambiance for the re, but oh, the food! We ordered a Shrimp Remoulade Peaux Boy and expecting a small sandwich, we ordered a shrimp salad as well. Let me tell you, this was not a California sized sandwich, it was a monster. Fortunately they cut it in half so my wife and I could easily enjoy it. It was glorious in its flavor profile. We slammed down the sandwich and found ourselves too full to eat the salad. The salad turned into breakfast for us instead of what was offered at the hotel. The shrimp were seasoned with Creole spices. What a way to wake up. lol. The salad was also large, it had egg, tomato, cucumber and a lot of cheese as well as the shrimp. If we ever pass through Lake Charles during business hours again, Buffi's will be our first choice for dining. read more

Very cute, little hole in the wall po boy shop. We were traveling back home, and were hungry as heck so we popped in. I got the shrimp remoulade and the hub got the boudin po boy. The shrimp was good. They were boiled instead of fried which was interesting. The remoulade was a liiiiiittle overpowering, but still great. My husbands reaction - "this is so f'n good". I think that says enough about the boudin po boy lol. I finished up with the banana pudding which was awesome. The staff was friendly as heck and very attentive to us also. read more

Staff was super friendly. Stopped in on our way back to Houston from Louisiana. Nice quiet little spot. My sandwich was good, I got the roast beef (Philly) but my wife got the shrimp remoulade and said the shrimp tasted life they where freezer burned. Our son got the cheese pizza and it was literally like a Red Barron frozen pizza but also tasted freezer burnt, he didn't even eat half and what 5 year old won't eat a cheese pizza. It is what it is, read more

The food was good - perhaps a little overrated. I had to wait a long time for service and I was in a hurry, but they really made up for it by providing me with regular updates. It took them a long time to realize that the items that I had ordered were actually things that they had run out of. I would have preferred to have been told earlier. I don't think this is a dealbreaker, but I think they could do better. Also, their shrimp pours, a little overcooked, but I guess that's to be expected. read more

Stopped by on the way back from New Orleans and we were blown away by the service and food. The bread was so soft and fresh and the sandwiches were delicious. Highly recommend and we can't wait to travel through again to try more of their options! Wish there was a place in the Houston suburbs like this! read more

After spending a few hours gambling I built up a hunger that casino food wouldn't satisfy. I drove over a few minutes into town and right next to the AT&T building on the corner was this place. When I walked in there was an unfamiliar feeling I had especially being excited to have a poboy. It was mid day so the place was very quiet and the perfect setting to enjoy a peaceful meal. After glancing at the menu I realized what it was "there was no fried food ". I was initially very hesitant to order anything but gave it a chance anyway. When I say I was pleasantly surprised at a boiled shrimp poboy and the flavor it carried. Don't take my word for it , stop in and give it a try. read more

Angel was the best!! Recommend a great Po Boy ! The energy in this place is great! I can't wait to come back

Pricing is insane ! 36.00 for 1/2 shrimp poboy, small red beans & rice & 1/2 Buffis sandwich, 1 ice tea.

This hit the spot! The Scene This quaint hole in the wall shop is just what I was searching for! I found it on Yelp and thought the entire drive there that I'd be dining on an All American Peaux Boy but the minute my eyes saw the Crawfish Boil Potaeaux I fell hard. I had to have it and boy did I get one -it was HUGE! The potato had to be two pounds and topped with spicy boiled crawfish, corn, sour cream, chives, and a heaping helping of seafood sauce. I had the other half for lunch the next day. The Service The girls on staff were sweet and helpful explaining items as my party had questions. She checked on us for refills and brought boxes when she saw we were struggling. Parting Thoughts I'll definitely return as I eyed Kaddie's Lunch Plates: Monday - Jambalaya, green beans, salad, and dessert Tuesday - Spaghetti, green beans, salad, and dessert Wednesday - Beef Tips over rice, buttered corn, salad, and dessert Thursday - Meatload, mashed potatoes, glazed carrots, salad and dessert Friday - Crawfish Fettuccini, green beans, salad, and dessert Saturday & Sunday - Red beans and rice, salad, and dessert read more

This place is incredible! It's so cute on the inside, and the employees are kind, helpful, and efficient. We loved our sandwiches. The rolls were super fresh and crispy on the outside without being tough, and they were PILED with shrimp. I loved the boiled shrimp po boy because it came with red potato inside and really dank zesty seafood sauce. Wow :) That guy was MESSY haha I would recommend getting the half sammie over the full size, because the half-sized sam (pictured in my review) was a better deal and clearly enough for an adult human. read more

Buffi's Peauxboys - boiled shrimp po boy - Sandwiches Near Me - Lake Charles, Louisiana

Stop by at the recommendation of a friend. The restaurant is very cute and quaint. The tables were labeled with various streets which the staff were so helpful pronouncing for me lol. We got in right before the rush, so it was quiet. Our waitress was helpful with our menu decisions and the wait wasn't long at all. There were several groups that came and order takeaways. Peauxboys can be order as a six inch or footlong and look every bit worth it! I had the crawfish boil potateaux and ate every bit of it, skin and all! Just looking at the picture has me craving one. The food is filling and this place is awesome for lunch or dinner with friends, family, or business meetings. Will definitely make my way back to Buffi's when I go back to Lake Charles. Located downtown. Street parking is available. read more

Stopped by on a road trip based on yelp reviews and were not disappointed! The staff were extremely thoughtful, the atmosphere charming, and the food spot on! After 2 bites of the cold shrimp remoulade poboy my 5 year old said, "I could definitely eat here again!" The 8 year old struggled with sharing the rich gumbo, bought for the car, with us. For us the extra effort to eat local, even on a 1000+ mile road trip, made the next hours of our journey so much nicer. read more

Great po boy, I ordered the remoulade shrimp and it was divine! very friendly staff!

Nice staff and quaint/clean place and went for a poboy (usually go to Darrel's) and got the small shrimp with reauxmoulade. Sandwich was good and so was reauxmoulade but wasn't enough of either and bread was a little tough. Otherwise a few more shrimp and reauxmoulade would have trumped the bread and made the sandwich memorable. Missed it by that much and when i go back will ask for extra reauxmoulade and try with tomatoes! I would recommend and is conveniently off I-10 if traveling past Lake Charles. read more
