Being in college is obviously expensive–even before you get to paying off your loans. Between food, books and supplies (not to mention drinks!) it can add up pretty quick. If you’re already feeling the stress of a draining bank account, you’ll be happy to hear the news: there are SO many restaurants with student discounts. If you have a college ID, you’re in luck. Here are 25 restaurants with student discounts to brighten your lunch hour.
If you’re like every college student in the Northeast, you live on Dunks. Your caffeine fix just got a little sweeter. At participating locations, you can get 10% off your order if you flash your card.
Famous for their wings and brews, now you can go watch the games with your buds for a little less. If you ask, you can get 10% off at most sites!
Bacon, eggs and a side of savings. Denny’s will give you 15% off if you’re military, an AARP member, or–you guessed it–a college student.
Say what you want about the tex-mex fast food joint. I personally can’t get enough of the cheesy goodness. And now, with the 10% student discount, I can get even more.
Those curly fries will be 10% more delicious with this discount. Free food (or at least, more free) always tastes better, am I right?
Finally a slightly healthy choice makes an appearance! Subway has long been hailed as the healthy alternative to fast food. Now, the tradition of healthy being pricey can be contested. At participating locations, you can get 10% off with a student ID.
Not a Dunks drinker? Don’t fret. While Starbucks doesn’t have discounts specifically for students, signing up for their rewards program can save you a ton in the long run.
A classic burger joint just got a little better. These already cheap sandwiches get a little cheaper with that 10% discount.
If you’re paying attention, you can save big on your weekly pizza binge. Dominos doesn’t have a consistent student deal, but every once in a while they offer miracles. Their most recent 30% off for students deal stands as proof.
Grill & Chill for 10% less green. The famous ice cream joint allows your wallet some wiggle room with their 10% discount for students.
Denny’s isn’t the only spot to grab your breakfast fix! Waffle house can also serve you right with 10% off at participating locations.
Here’s an actual restaurant to add to the list of restaurants with student discounts. This classic joint has an entire discounted menu for those of you carrying an international student identity card.
Students drink free at participating Chick-fil-A’s. No more getting a water cup to save money! Sweet!
If Taco Bell isn’t your speed (or their isn’t one in your neighborhood) there is still a mex-mix fix for you. Del Taco hands out free milkshakes for your birthday!
Don’t stress if Dominos isn’t your fave. Pizza Hut offers anywhere from a 10 to a 20% student discount depending on the location.
Yay for more donuts! Krispy Kreme will hook you up with a free donut when you sign up for Friends of Krispy Kreme.
When you buy your meal the drink comes free for students at Chipotle. Nothing goes better with soda than burritos!
What’s better than a free drink? A free drink and a five dollar burrito meal, of course! Qdoba keeps up the tradition of competition with Chipotle.
Free. Gourmet. Burger. Just sign up for their Royalty Club. Need I say more?
Slowing it down from the fast food, we have Buca di Beppo. 10% off at participating locations lets you afford a nice Italian evening.
Set your sights on the golden arches. You can get 10% off your already affordable meal. Who needs the dollar menu when you can make it the 90 cent menu?!
The Country’s Best Yogurt is a little sweeter when you get a whopping 15% off at participating locations.
More pizza! Yum. Like the other pizza places, Papa John’s has rather inconsistent deals. But you can still get anywhere from 10 to 20% off depending on what location you frequent!
Deli sandwiches aren’t the most glamorous, but they can treat you a little better with 5% off for students at certain locations
