Eating is an important gastronomic and social event for students. But the cost for eating out can be expensive, especially if you eat out more than a couple times a week. For those of you with fewer resources, here are suggestions about how to eat out for $5 or less. Here are five restaurants, there are more, which fit this category. These establishments are in no particular order.
In virtually all student housing on and off campus delivery is important, and many businesses deliver. Chinese and pizza are the most common delivery businesses, and in keeping with traditional logic here are two establishments that are good and affordable.
Little Caesars, 1410 Kasold Dr. offers a daily special of one large cheese or pepperoni pizza for $5. The pizza can feed two and breadsticks are only two dollars more. Their is no need to call ahead, the staff make plenty each day.
For a more sophisticated meal,
Jade Garden, 1410 Kasold Dr.,
offers students myriad flavors
and options. This restaurant has more than 30 items that are less than $5, ranging from appetizers to entrees. The business delivers on orders of more than $10.
Often students need to eat on the fly. For a quick burger on-the-go, try Bucky's Drive In, 2120 W. Ninth St. The long-time Lawrence establishment offers classic American food — burgers, fries, onion rings and milk shakes. Mix and match items at the store to fit your budget.
For a more relaxed, dine in deal, try Cicil's Pizza, 2020 W. 23rd St. You can enjoy an
all-you-can-eat buffet for only $3.99. The buffet even includes desert.
Finally, International House of Pancakes offers many items for under and about five dollars. Crepe and pancakes can help after a long night or early morning. IHOP is open 24 hours a day, every day.
All these establishments are only recommendations for the places to go, there are others that have daily specials throughout the year all around Lawrence.
