Posh females and others in pub that serves food (6,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

buffet car

'that serves food' is the definition.

'posh females and others in pub' is the wordplay.
'posh' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for upper-class - opposite to non-u).
'females' becomes 'ff' (I've seen this in other clues).
'and others' becomes 'etc'.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'pub' becomes 'bar' (I've seen this before).
'u'+'ff'+'etc'='uffetc'
'uffetc' placed within 'bar' is 'BUFFET CAR'.

(Other definitions for buffet car that I've seen before include "where fast food is obtained?" , "moving place to snack" , "dining carriage" , "catering venue" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
