I’m in SE, it’s a roll or bread roll unless it’s iced or to have with a burger then it’s a bun

Bap or Roll. From Oxfordshire, been in Wales 20 years.

If the top was hard it would be a cob, so soft cob would be acceptable. Otherwise a bap. I'd accept bun if it contained a burger. West Midlands

Same 👍🏻
