Correction (10 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 9 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
A cheap feed starts at the price board, so every line here is one we read off a menu. Five places made it through our checks: two cafes and three sit-down restaurants, each with a menu we could copy prices from.
None of the five has a Kilsyth street address. They sit in the suburbs around it: Montrose, Croydon, Mooroolbark and Croydon South. Each heading below carries the place’s own suburb, so check it before you plan the drive.
You get each item and its amount exactly as printed. Some of these sites carry no date we could find, so treat every price as the one we read on 9 October 2026 and confirm with the venue. Hours appear only where a source lists them.
