What do you call a small round bread item?

What do you usually call the small round bread item sometimes known as roll / cob / bun etc? Comment if I've missed your option off the poll but I can only add 6 options!

An English muffin is a type of roll to me just as a bap is a type of roll, as roll for me is the generic term covering small savoury bread products. But willing to accept other people's definitions

A roll, unless it's a bap, which is a soft flat floury roll rather than a crusty roll. Unless it's got a burger inside - then it's a bun. Or chips - then it starts out as a bap but the arrival of the chips makes it a butty.

It fits in the scone, welsh cake, toasted items genre
Absolutely not a roll

If it's crusty it's a cob, if it's soft it's a roll, if it's soft and large it's a bap!

What type of small bread like object are we talking? Is it a barm (soft white roll), a cob (crusty roll), a roll (hot dog shaped), a bap (large white and covered in flour), an oven bottom muffin (large white no flour), a bun (sweet bread e.g. brioche), a burger bun (nasty American style white bread with sesame seeds)....

Bap or bread roll

Breadbun/breadcake/bread roll.
South Yorks

[soft] bap

[burger] bun

Are you from Waterford?

Small one is a roll, unless it is floury when it becomes a bap. A plain tea cake is slightly larger( a tea cake has fruit in it) and a bread cake the next size up!

Cob but only if its crusty. Birmingham.

Where i now live in Scotland it is a roll.I was born in the north east of Scotland where it is a softie.

It might be called that where he comes from, but not round here it isn't.

He's a smug, self-absorbed dickhead anyway.

If it's crusty it's a cob. If it's soft it's a roll

Bap

Breadcake. South Yorkshire.

Oh god I love a Scottish Morning Roll.
I'm literally at the other end of the country but we have a local shop that does them, no idea why !

Depends.

A cob is crusty, often served with butter and soup. Bacon goes in a bap. A burger goes in a bun. If it's a sandwich filling then it's a roll.

Cob and crusty ones are crusty cobs 🤣

East Mids

A softie

I'm in NE Scotland

A bread roll or a bread finger if long for hotdogs. DH calls them bread cakes because he's from Yorkshire.

a breadcake

I'm shocked to have seen 3 different answers from manchester. Everyone I know uses muffin. And if you went in my local chippy and asked for anything other than a chip muffin they wouldn't have a clue! Especially a chip cob or a chip breadcake...

A breadcake. If it's got currants and sultanas in it, a teacake.

This caused problems early in my relationship with DP when his mum asked us to get her some teacakes. Turned out she wanted them to make ham sandwiches. Ham and sultanas isn't a good combination.

Chip barmcakes or chip butty in the part of Manchester I know! Hardly ever heard muffin here unless it's like a cake, a blueberry muffin! Interesting.
