"Cheap eats" is a nebulous term. Sure, a croissant is generally inexpensive, but it isn’t nearly filling enough to sub for an entire meal. For this map, the focus is on those spots serving up dishes both substantial enough for lunch or dinner and affordably priced — somewhere in the ballpark of 10 dollars (though sometimes a little higher or, impressively, also lower).
Be it the griot cubes and heaping pile of rice from Villeray mainstay Marché Méli-Melo, a grilled chicken sandwich from Concordia student favourite Antep Kebab, or the crisp falafels from Nilufar in Shaughnessy Village, one thing is certain: You won’t leave hungry.
