Help me I’m poor! Hands up if this you. Yep, me too.
But just because we’re poor doesn’t mean we have to sadly sit eating cold spaghetti out of a tin for our dinner. There are cheap eats to be found. Toowoomba Living has rounded up 11 Toowoomba dining experiences that will fill your belly for $10 or under.
- Banh Mi at The Finch
Every Wednesday is $5 banh mi day at The Finch. Which means you can buy one for you, one for your mate (or two for you if that’s how you roll. No judgment).
- Chicken Burger at Super Rooster
Update: There’s been a price rise at Super Rooster. No longer can you grab a chicken burger and small chips for under $10. While this is an outright tragedy things you can still get for under $10 include a quarter chicken and chips pack for $8.65. And a small chips will set you back only $3.75 so there’s that too.
