Cheap Meals on OSU's Campus

Cheap meals do exist beyond the fast food “dollar menu” and campus dining, especially on or around Ohio State (OSU) campus. There are so many restaurants that special deals exist for each day of the week and in every genre of food.

Some of these restaurants are chains and some are family-owned businesses. But sometimes these Davids around campus are dwarfed by the Goliath fast food chains. National advertising for the major fast food chains are a constant reminder of “dollar menus” and special offers that can be found anywhere. There are other options to get a meal for a minimal price.

Many people would rather go to a local restaurant. Fast food chains can sometimes become redundant.

“Since they're chains, I feel I already know the menus,” said Cat McGrew, a grad student and teaching assistant at OSU.
Different deals come up every day of the week. Some of the specials that are currently running around campus are particularly well-priced for the portions of food. Some are just extraordinarily cheap meals.

“My friends and I always order Gumby’s extra-large pizza on Wednesdays and watch Lost together,” said Tarah Clark, a student at Columbus State Community College student.

These specials are offered only on specific days during the week. All are located easily within walking distance from anywhere on campus.

Monday - Adriatico’s New York Style Pizza (locations can all be found below) offers a Monday Night Madness pizza deals starting at $6.25 after 5 p.m.

Tuesday - BW3’s popular 35¢ wings deal is usually accompanied with a large entertaining crowd
- Adriatico’s offers the same Tuesday Night Madness pizza deal.

Wednesday - Gumby’s Pizza offers a Wicked Wednesday extra-large 1-item pizza for $7.49

Thursday - Subway’s Italian B.M.T. 6 inch sub is a mere $2.49. Subway offers an array of sandwiches on different days (Monday through Sunday) all for $2.49.

Friday - Mama’s Pasta and Brew cooks up a lasagna dish that comes with bread and a salad for $5.50

A cheap meal is often more desired than a decent meal. This rings especially true for students with all the financial problems that they face. However, cheap meals at local restaurants can be decent too.

“I go to restaurants outside the major food chains to get food that at least feels like it might be home cooked, which you don’t get a lot of living away from home,” said Melissa Larke, a junior at OSU.

Some restaurants offer cheap, simple, daily menus that one could drop in for between classes.

“The most common time I eat out, around campus, is during the day, because I am usually too busy too cook anything myself,” said Andrew Krieger, a senior at OSU said. “Besides the obvious nutritional reasons, I tend to like higher quality food than most fast food restaurants can offer.”

“Healthy” is a term that has become hard to define these days. However, there is an “unhealthy” stereotype attached to many fast-food chains. Many of the restaurants around campus bake their fresh bread daily or cook their meals “home-style.” Bagel shops like Hillel Bagel Café and Bernie’s Bagels are a great place to get a fresh, “healthy” meal.

Local restaurants offer a variety of deals, in a variety of different genres of food that could be of interest for a variety of different reasons every day of the week.

“Nick's Diner, a little cafe over on Neil Avenue is an independent place that has great food,” McGrew said.
