banana,brown roll, and a drink from dunnes or tesco healthy!Gotta have a bit of fruit

Roll with 3 fillings, banana, apple, small carton of milk.

Less than €5 in any Spar shop.

Come to think of it most of the suggestions are takeaway meals for under €5. What about the people who want healthy food instead of fatty food? Its ridiculous but people are paying alot more for a healthy meal!

gers deli on mccurtain st does the best chicken rolls in town for 3 quid!

it makes me worry that a shop can cook and sell chicken plus the bread and fillings for €3 and still make a profit!! I have to question the quality of the food, especially the chicken

But I have never been there so maybe I am being unfair.

Speaking of healthy food, I'll be all set for my first breakfast roll in several months shortly, please post your nominations for the best breakfast roll and/or hot chicken baguette in Cork.

Most of the time they don't cook the chicken themselves though, and if they do it's from frozen fillets which are a lot cheaper. I worked in a deli years ago where every day we'd buy about 30 chickens from the Chicken Inn and I'd spend all morning slicing them up for sambos. We tried moving over to the 'prepacked sliced chicken' which looked more mechanically reclaimed than chicken and the customers hated it. I think the standard has improved a bit for prepacked chicken now!

Quay coop Lunch for €8.50 will do you for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Healthy and €8.50÷3=€2.66 per meal

Have you tried it? I love Quay Co-Op food and I'm not a vegetarian.

Slightly over the €5.00 mark - but you can get starters/main course/coffee for €7.50 - China Gold on Patrick's Street, entrance next door to Wallis, restaurant upstairs. But that's when you want a big feed. You get to sit in a restaurant, get waited on by really friendly staff - and for €7.50 - you can't go wrong.

And I agree with poster re. the O'Flynn sausage stall - YUM!!! J

Falaf al's off Castle Street: Falafal/Kebab and a drink for a fiver during the week with a student ID. I may be addicted!

The staff may be ignorant trolls but you really can't beat the sandwich deal at Daybreak's deli on Gilabbey St (By St Finbarres).

A nice big sandwich (the bread is lovely), packet of taytos and can of coke for 3.50.

The deli next to the kop shop in Blackpools Watercourse Road. They wont be beating.
