Toronto is home to a plethora of wonderful food options, ranging across all types of cuisine. However, a lot of these restaurants can be expensive, and most of us can\u2019t afford brunch at the Drake Hotel every weekend, or dinner at Kasa Moto on a regular basis. Don\u2019t worry- that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t experience all the delicious food Toronto has to offer- here are a few affordable restaurants in Toronto even if you’re broke AF!<\/p>\n
Not only is everything on the breakfast menu under $10, but students get a 20% discount from 8am- midnight Monday through to Friday. Note: breakfast is served ALL day!<\/p>\n
The most expensive option on this menu is only $9.25, but cash only- which means if you take out a $20 bill at the bank, you\u2019ll be able to buy at LEAST two meals (for yourself, obviously).<\/p>\n
This spot is a little bit more expensive than the other breakfast options on this list, but that\u2019s to be expected since it is in Kensington. You can still get Eggs Benny and other options for less than $10- just make sure you don\u2019t order a mimosa!<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re looking for something sweet, this is a great, cheap option. You can also decide how much you want to spend, as a basic crepe with two items is under $5, but you can also add some more if you want to treat yourself!<\/p>\n
Over Easy is probably the most expensive breakfast option on this list, but you can get some really unique items, like the \u2018Breakfast Poutine, or \u2018The Eggstro\u2019, so if you have a few extra dollars, check out one of it\u2019s two locations!<\/p>\n

You might be surprised that this is on the list- but you can definitely get a few items on the menu that are DELICIOUS and cheap, such as the sandwich and soup combo. They also have a student discount on pick-up, where you can save 15%! Just stay away from their juices, no matter how good they taste and make you feel.<\/p>\n
This is a great place to go for lunch, because they have a cash-only lunch special. You\u2019ll get some gyozas, and select a main from the options available for less than $10.<\/p>\n
This is one of the best sushi restaurants on the cheap, because the quality of the food is still really good. Their lunch special runs from 12-5pm, so you could even make this an early dinner. You can get a combo for less than $7, which comes with miso soup and a salad.<\/p>\n
Keep this one for the weekend- there is NO TAX on Saturdays, and you can get half portions (which is often plenty of food)!<\/p>\n
Sure, $10 seems like a lot for a sandwich, but trust us- these custom sandwiches are really filling. It also comes with a small side salad, and by the end you\u2019ll definitely be full.<\/p>\n

You should already know this one, but we can\u2019t get over that everything on their food menu is $4.95!!!! If you don\u2019t want to spend too much money, just don\u2019t order many drinks (hard, we know).<\/p>\n
The Maddy has daily specials, and a brand new \u2018Taco Tuesday\u2019, but we suggest you visit the Maddy on the first Tuesday of each month. It\u2019s Retro Roll Back night, where there are food AND drink specials starting at $3.50.<\/p>\n
Although there aren\u2019t many places to sit, Za is a great pizza option, as you can choose to get half a pizza (or two halves of two different flavours!). It might be more expensive than Dominoes, but it is also considerably more delicious!<\/p>\n
Unlike many Indian restaurants, the food at Veda is not full of oil or sodium. There are also some great vegetarian options, like Butter Tofu! You can get different sized curry bowls for as low as $8.<\/p>\n
Who isn\u2019t constantly craving a taco? All of the tacos at Seven Lives (their specialty) are $5 or less, and the portions are pretty generous. They also try their best to accommodate to dietary restrictions. You\u2019ll almost always find a lineup, which goes to show how yummy the food is!<\/p>\n
