Visiting NYC can be super expensive- shopping, shows, museums, etc. Don’t fret! We have you covered when it comes to filling your belly on a budget. Check out these delicious places to eat for cheap in NYC.
The Halal Guys
The Halal Guys got its humble beginning as a street food cart. Customers began to flock to their carts for their delicious chicken over rice; creating lines that were blocks long. Now, with four locations in New York City you can experience all the yumminess your tastebuds can handle without the extreme wait time. Ask for chicken over rice and don’t forget the white and red sauces.
Papaya King
Papaya King is a late night grill that offers everything from cheeseburgers to fish sandwiches, but we recommend sticking PD’s claim to fame- a hotdog (or 2) and fries. Be sure to bring cash because this place does not accept credit cards.
2 Bros Pizza
Known for the dollar slice, 2 Bros Pizza is the perfect place to fill up while walking around the city. With multiple locations around Manhattan, you’re sure to come across their huge sign. While they do have other food offerings, keep it simple and order like a local. Just walk up to the counter and ask for the 2 slice combo. Best $3 you’ll spend.
Union Square Burger
Union Square Burger is one of New York’s best-kept secrets. Skip the long lines at Shake Shack and come here for their Avocado Burger. The burgers are fresh and made to order. The cook is usually the one taking the orders, so there may be a bit of a wait. Don’t go here if you’re in a rush.
Cafe Zaiya
Cafe Zaiya is a little cafe that offers cute bento boxes, sushi, pastries, coffee, and other Instagram-worthy foods. The Matcha/Sesame soft-serve cone is definitely a fan favorite. While most patrons come to Cafe Zaiya for their sweet treats, don’t forget to try their savory meals.
