Great places to eat in Athens for $5 and under

The majority of students at Ohio University are on tight budgets. I'm one of them. Food, however, is a necessity for all of us. Let's face it, sometimes we simply don't have the time to go to WalMart and buy food, or have the time to cook up a meal in between classes.

Athens, OH prides itself on local business. While national franchises like McDonald's and Burger King may have dollar menus, they're not always the healthiest choice. You can still get an assortment of great meals for $5 and under at many of the fantastic local establishments in Athens. For example, next time you've got a craving for one of those disgusting Double Down sandwiches from KFC, go to Miller's Chicken instead. It doesn't hurt to once in a while give your business to the many amazing people that make Athens such a great place. The goal of the map below is to show you all of the great places that you can pick up a quick, affordable meal at Ohio University.

  1. Thanks for the map, I'm always looking for inexpensive restaurants and I try to support local businesses. I totally agree with you about the new KFC sandwich - disgusting!

  2. Hey Molly,

    I agree with you. It's always good to support local businesses. Athens has a bunch of local restaurants, many of which I had never been to before prior to this blog. It's been a pretty neat experience going to and trying all of these places. Thanks for the feedback and hope all is well with you!
