1
Home Slice Pizza · South Congress and North Loop

Two large pies, sixteen slices, and you're under $50 as long as you stick to cheese, pepperoni and the classics. The premium pies push it over.

2
P. Terry's Burger Stand · Multiple locations

Five cheeseburgers and five fries comes to $29.75. No family bundle needed; the a la carte math just works.

3
Bill Miller Bar-B-Q · Multiple locations

The 10-piece fried chicken family order with fries and bread is $23.15. The small barbecue family order is $30.55. Nobody in Austin beats it on price.

4
Mandola's Italian Kitchen · The Triangle and Bee Cave

The bake-at-home pizza kit makes four 10-inch pizzas for $20. Add a salad from the market case and you're still under $35.

5
Bill Miller Bar-B-Q Taco Box · Multiple locations

Yes, Bill Miller twice. Twelve tacos for $24: bean and cheese, potato and egg, bacon and egg, plus three of your choice. Breakfast for dinner counts.

How we checked: Prices, dates and hours were checked against each business's own site on Sept 23, 2026. Where sources disagreed, we left the number out. If something's changed, tell us and we'll fix it.
