Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Fifteen dollars is a real budget, and a price board shows you where it goes furthest. This page covers four takeaway places in and around Hoppers Crossing: three on Hoppers Crossing streets and one just over the line in Tarneit. Every item below is priced as printed on the venue’s own menu or ordering page, with a one-line note on what it is for anyone reading the board cold.
It is a short list because we only kept places where we could read a current price and match the address at two sources. Each entry ends with a single move.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Order this | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| The cheapest single item on the page | Michael’s Fish Shop | Potato Cake | $2.05 |
| A pizza and a drink in one deal | Jessie’s Pizza | Meal Deal One | $14.00 |
| A quarter of a charcoal chicken | Hoppers Charcoal Chicken | 1/4 Charcoal Chicken | AU$ 8 |
| A pepperoni pizza at the small size | Bubba Pizza Tarneit | Pepperoni (Small) | $12 |
Michael’s Fish Shop — Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing VIC 3029
Michael’s ordering page lists a Plain Burger at $10.15. The shop’s own ordering page prints 3 Old Geelong Rd, while OpenStreetMap has the number as 2, so go by the street name and check before you head out. The same menu carries a Chicken Burger at $10.70 and a Lamb Souvlaki at $15.05, which just misses the ceiling. Its ordering page offers “Takeaway & Delivery”. A potato cake is a battered, fried slice of potato, and it is what Sydney calls a scallop. Flake is the Victorian shop name for shark fillet. Minimum chips is the shop name for a small serve of hot chips.
On the menu (copied from michaelsfishshop.yumbojumbo.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Potato Cake: $2.05
- Flake: $9.95
- Minimum Chips: $8.15
- Plain Burger: $10.15
The move: the Potato Cake at $2.05 is the cheapest price we copied for this page, and Minimum Chips at $8.15 turns it into a feed.
Jessie’s Pizza — 2-6 Deloraine Drive, Hoppers Crossing VIC 3029
Jessie’s own site lists its hours as Monday To Thursday: 12:00 – 22:00, Friday: 12:00 – 23:00, Saturday: 11:00 – 23:00 and Sunday: 11:00 – 22:00. The prices below come from the ordering page that the shop’s site links to. The menu there describes Meal Deal One as one small classic pizza and one drink can of 330mL, with tomato, cheese, ham, bacon and egg. The Margherita Pizza is described as tomato, cheese and oregano. That page does not print a size beside the Margherita, so read the size off the menu when you order.
On the menu (copied from ozfoodhunter.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Meal Deal One: $14.00
- Margherita Pizza: $13.50
- Garlic Bread: $6.00
The move: Meal Deal One at $14.00 bundles the pizza and the drink, so there is nothing else to add up at the counter.
Hoppers Charcoal Chicken — 33 Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing VIC 3029
The shop’s current menu page lists a 1/4 Charcoal Chicken at AU$8, described as “Freshly roasted charcoal chicken, cooked using Australian charcoal”, stuffed with “our famous stuffing”. The same menu lists a Chicken Burger at AU$12 (a fried chicken patty, lettuce, special secret sauce and American cheese) and a Hot Chips N Gravy Roll at AU$9.50 (hot chips and gravy in a fresh roll). There is also a Kids Pack at AU$14, which the menu describes as 6 chicken nuggets, chips and a can. Its site has an “order online” option for takeaway.
On the menu (copied from hopperscharcoalchicken.com on 3 October 2026):
- 1/4 Charcoal Chicken: AU$ 8
- Chicken Burger: AU$ 12
- Hot Chips N Gravy Roll: AU$ 9.50
- Kids Pack: AU$ 14
The move: a 1/4 Charcoal Chicken at AU$8 is the lowest of the four prices above, and the Hot Chips N Gravy Roll at AU$9.50 is the carb option.
Bubba Pizza Tarneit — Shop 13, 747 Tarneit Road, Tarneit VIC 3029
This one is in Tarneit, not Hoppers Crossing. Bubba’s store page gives the address as 747 Tarneit Road, Tarneit Gardens, its ordering page adds Shop 13, and the store page offers “pickup from our store”. Its ordering page lists the Pepperoni as tomato base, salami and mozzarella, with the sizes printed beside the price: Small $12 and Large $17. The ordering page also lists deals, including Bubbas Best Deal at $24 for one large Bubba Faves pizza, a garlic bread and a 1.25L drink, which is over the ceiling for this page.
On the menu (copied from orderonline.bubbapizza.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Pepperoni (Small): $12
The move: the Pepperoni (Small) at $12 is the one Bubba price we copied that stays under the line, so stop there.
