The Bon Aire

Charbroiled Delights

This establishment is a bar with lots of beer and cocktail options. However, they have a kitchen which serves delicious charbroiled food at crazy cheap prices. Their 1/2 pound burger is only $3.99! Even better, they have a fixins bar where you help yourself to onions, pickles, jalapenos, and a variety of sauces.

Mister Tramps Sports Pub

Cheap Food & Cheap Drinks

Everyone should be talking about this place. Its a comfortably lit sports bar with many TVs. Plenty of seating outside and inside. They even have a separate rentable room for events. All-day, every day, well drinks are $4 in addition to daily specials. Over 30 beers on tap. Their food is delicious, plentiful, and cheap. Some appetizers (for example) are so large, two people can share and be satisfied. One of the most affordable cheap bars in Austin.

Super Burrito

Mexican Delight

They are the food truck for The Water Tank (our favorite value bar in Austin). The food is authentic and affordable. Try their massive breakfast burritos for under $7 all day! On Tuesdays, the offer all their tacos for only $2. The McNeil location is a victory.

Sushi Junai 2

Value Sushi

Lets be real... Sushi can get real expensive for the big eater. This location is spacious and delicious. They have a lunch option for a few dollars less, but you should select the all-you-can-eat dinner option for $30. The selection is huge and you can really get your value. We love sushi and none of us have ever left without getting food coma afterwards.

Rudy's Bar-B-Q

Affordable BBQ

There are many barbecue options in Austin. For the cost-per-pound, no other BBQ place comes close. No matter which location you go to, the quality is consistent. We have other favorite BBQ spots, but if you want to have great BBQ regularly, at a value... Go To Rudy's.
