Posted: March 5, 2025 | Author: jesse

On the hunt for a budget-friendly lunch? Here are some fantastic spots at Glendale City Centre where you can grab and easy bite to eat for $15 or less!

Clean Eating

For a healthier option, head to Soul Origin for a variety of fresh salads and sandwiches. Or if you are craving your favourite sushi roll, Sushia has a great selection – why not try their mixed boxes or donburi for a slight change? If you have made a commitment to fresh, wholesome ingredients then you can still enjoy a nutritious lunch that doesn’t compromise on flavour (without overspending!).

Grab and go

In a bit of a rush? Subway is the place to go. Try their new grilled wrap range or a classic like the Italian B.M.T. Plus, you can add one of their famous cookies for an extra sweet treat. And speaking of sweet treats, maybe you’re looking for something baked and delicious instead? Banjo’s Bakery has you covered with a range of pies, pastries, and sandwiches. Their chicken and salad roll or a classic pie’s are both excellent choices that won’t cost you more than $15. Plus, you can grab a sneaky muffin or a slice to complete your meal.

Sit back and relax

Whether it’ a lunch break or a long overdue catchup with friends, finding good food is a must – but it can be hard to stick to a budget (especially with a good coffee to go with it). While dine-in options might tip you slightly over our $15 guide, both XS Espresso and Moe’s Café have a range of light meals, small treats or options to share that will still let you treat yourself to that coffee along with your café style lunch.

Easy picking

Looking for something easy that you just know is going to be great? Burger Urge has you covered with their fresh, juicy burger range, or simple snacks (onion rings anyone?). While My BBQ has you covered if you’re looking for a range of comforting meals that pack a flavour punch.

With these fantastic options, you can enjoy a delicious and affordable lunch at the Glendale City Centre. Whether you’re in the mood for a sandwich, salad, sushi, or something a bit different, there’s something for everyone. Happy eating!
