Boston: Cheap Eats

Finding low cost, high flavor food can be challenging, but it certainly isn’t impossible
in Boston. Whether you want to it to bring it to Boston Common, to be part of the
buzz before a big game, or to hide away from the world, finding the perfect meal on
the cheap is still possible.


Our Choice: Cask ‘n Flagon (62 Brookline Ave.)

 The
Cask ‘n Flagon is truly in the shadow of Boston’s most legendary sporting
venue – Fenway Park. Inside it’s a sports pub ‘till the end, serving up creamy New
England clam chowder, monster burgers and a host of salads and sandwiches, most
for under $10. This is THE place to be on Red Sox game days though, so check
the schedule and arrive early.


Also Notable: Volle Nolle (351 Hanover St.)

 Experience Boston’s famous North End at Volle Nolle (Latin for willy-nilly), a high
impact, low cost Italian eatery. Breakfast and lunch sandwiches are house
specialties, most coming in at under $7, and perfect to take out.

Spice and Rice (1172 Cambridge St., Cambridge)

 A mix of Thai and sushi, Spice and Rice offers an amazing lunch special between
11am and 3pm on a variety of menu combinations for just $7. Even after lunch, the
large portions and tasty food make this a great place to spend $10.
