If you find it hard to believe that bills less than $10 exist...here are 5 places that your $5 bill and the handful of crumpled ones you fished out of the dryer can buy you an entire meal (so long as you order water at most spots). Click a restaurant name for more details:
- Rhino Market - The breakfast menu at this popular spot may be short and to the point, but the options pack a punch. The only things not under $5 are the French Toast and a Build Your Own Omelette. Choose from an English Muffin Sandwich or Steel Cut Oats (both $3.99), Breakfast Burrito ($4.49) or Le Monde, an egg with spinach, tomato and Havarti on sourdough, for $4.49.
- Art's Barbecue & Deli - If you’ve been looking for an excuse to try the home of that neon sign that everybody knows, here it is. Art’s breakfast menu is as massive as its serving sizes with a good handful of items coming in at under $4.90. Go for any of the breakfast sandwiches or biscuits – Bacon or Sausage and Egg Sandwich ($3.95) or Bacon and Egg biscuit ($3.45) are classics. If you’re looking for a larger meal, get one of the grill items, like Two Eggs with Ham or Bologna ($4.90) or Two Eggs with Bacon, Sausage or Livermush ($4.75) – they’re all served with grits or home-fried potatoes with a homemade biscuit or toast.
- Mr. G's - The classic breakfast menu has combination plates, hot cakes and sandwiches all for well under $5. Get a Steak & Egg sandwich ($3.45), Smoked Sausage & Egg sandwich ($3.25) or two hot cakes ($3) just to name a few and you’ll have more than enough left for a drink ($1-$1.50).
- Sunflour Baking Company - Save for the breakfast sandwiches (except for #8, the Egg Sandwich at $4.75), the entire Morning Menu is $4.75 and under. Try the Hazelnut Orange Roll ($3.95), cinnamon roll ($3.75) or their Cheddar Biscuit ($2.95).
- SUGAR Donuts - What was a Food Truck Friday staple is now a Ballantyne go-to for those days you’re just not feeling like a healthy breakfast. Individual (huge) donuts that range in flavor from Organic Raspberry Glazed to Lemon Custard topped with marshmallow fluff to Southern Banana Pudding cost $2-$4 per individual donut. The menu changes daily.
