5.Subway
Subway’s kids meal includes a four inch sandwich and a choice of 1% low fat milk or applesauce. This option’s cheaper if you want something quick to eat or you aren’t extremely hungry. It’s also a relatively cheap meal at only around $7.50. The only downside being that sometimes a four-inch sandwich just isn’t enough, but other than that, this is a great option for a budget friendly meal.
4.Chick-fil-a
The Chick-fil-a kids meal includes a choice of five count nuggets or tenders, and a small side like fries, applesauce or mac and cheese. It’s priced almost the same amount of food that the adult meal contains, so it’s a great option. It isn’t that healthy, but for the amount of food you’ll get, I’d say it’s worth it. The biggest downside being the price though, it ranges from eight to nine dollars which can be pretty expensive for a kids meal.
3.McDonalds
McDonald’s infamous Happy Meal includes either a hamburger or a four count of nuggets with either fries, apple slices or yogurt. This meal contains a healthy alternative because it contains fruit. You’ll get a lot of food for the price since it’s only five to eight dollars. If you’re wanting something cheap but also filling, a happy meal works great.
2.Panda Express
Panda Express kids meals contain a junior entree such as orange chicken or teriyaki chicken and a junior side such as super greens, white rice or chow mein. It also comes with fruit and has no high fructose corn syrup. It’s not only a cheaper option, but also a healthier one. You get at least half of what you’d get in an adult meal for three dollars cheaper than an adult meal at $8.20. This meal’s definitely one of the top options if you don’t want to spend as much money.
1.Chipotle
The Chipotle menu contains the best kids meal available. The price varies from five to six dollars and offers many different items. You can get a build your own taco kit or a quesadilla, along with many options of protein and countless toppings. You also get a side of chips or if you want something healthier, some fruit. Overall, this offers the most variety of food for the cheapest price, so I think it’s the best option if you’re looking for something cheaper.
