Hello again! It’s me, the Frugal Blue Jay. I’m here this time around to talk about the different restaurants we have here in Elizabethtown and the inexpensive options they offer. You’d be amazed with the diversity offered in a quaint town such as ours. Just wait. You’ll be trying new things in no time! Get out, enjoy yourselves and take your friends along. It will be well worth it.
Ella’s Place. Looking for an inexpensive, casual place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner? Ella’s weekday breakfast menu ranges from $2.95-$6.50. A variety of delicious food and a great atmosphere. You couldn’t ask for a better place to hang out with your friends at mealtime.
Brother’s Pizza. Craving pizza? Stop by Brothers Pizza and pick up a 15-inch pizza for $10.50. Your roommate will love you when you satisfy her late night pizza cravings. Bonding over a pizza is always a good thing.
TJ Rockwell’s. Interested in having a delicious all-you-can eat brunch buffet for $14.95? You can do just that from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday. Or bring your new roommate and family along to enjoy some of their famously delicious appetizers, such as their rhino fries. When hunger hits you hard, you know where to go.
Folklore Coffee and Company. This unique café and coffee spot offers an incredible variety of delicious and freshly made foods. Their coffee goes above and beyond anything you have ever tried before. If you are just aching to use your student ID for that Frozen Nutella, please do! At this location it’s 10% off your final purchase with a student ID.
Lucky Duck’s Bar and Grille. On Monday to Friday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Lucky Ducks has half off appetizers served at the bar only. They also have college student nights with $1 drafts, but, of course, you must be 21 or over to attend.
Pita Pit. Conveniently located on Market Street, they are as popular as ever. On their menus, they have detachable coupons and possible free items. They offer a variety of vegetarian options as well.
Panda Buffet. Want to take your boyfriend, girlfriend or maybe your best friend out to lunch? It only costs $15.24 for two people to eat at Panda Buffet. Delicious food! I highly recommend it.
The Black Gryphon. If you are in the mood for some great Italian food or just want to grab a drink at the bar, the Black Gryphon accommodates all.
E Yuan Chinese and Vegetarian Cuisine. They have no MSG in their food and they include a complete vegetarian menu along with their original menu. Plus, their lunch specials are only $5.50 and their dinner specials are only $7.55. Feel free to present your Student ID when paying as they also offer a student discount.
Trolley Stop Diner. Breakfast Special for $1.95 Monday through Friday? $5.95 Lunch Special Monday through Friday? Yes, that’s right!
Here are all the wonderful restaurants we have in Elizabethtown. As you can see they are all diverse and unique. I don’t think anyone could ask for more in a town like ours. You can never say that there is nothing to eat. If you’re not in the mood for the Marketplace, step outside and take a walk. You never know what you’ll stumble upon. Whether it is fast food or an Asian buffet, the possibilities are endless.
Food is always going to be a necessity, whether your busy schedule says so or not. Why not enjoy the privilege of driving or walking and discover what’s out there? Why not start with food?
Food demands us to step outside of our comfort zone. Now this may sound extravagant, but you have to look at it as such. My final point is, try new foods. We have the places to do it and the means to.
Well, the Frugal Blue Jay is signing off once more. Stay tuned next time for my third and final article.
