Fine dining calls for a fine mood. But cheap eateries they are welcome any day of the week. If you are holidaying in Townsville, here are a few eateries where you can grab a bite at a reasonable price.
To grab a quick bite any day, That Place on Sturt will not disappoint you. Big on your taste-buds yet light on your wallet, you can enjoy great quality for less cost in this small café. It is a good place to begin your adventure for the day for it is located in the heart of the city and has some excellent coffee and tea options that are guaranteed to kick start any gloomy day.
Located within Flinders Square, the Quarters is yet another popular budget eatery at Townsville. Another conventional café with a good range of hot beverages, the Quarters does a decent job with desserts and cakes as well. Open from 6.30 in the morning until 2 pm in the afternoon, it is another perfect place for your morning treats. Available throughout the week, you can even grab a cup of coffee here while exploring Townsville during the weekend.
It sounds like it is all about the coffee but rest assured there is more to this place than the name expresses. Of course, the coffee is a big hit here and you are welcome to have a cup any day of the week but there is also a range of breakfast and lunch options - the latter of which is quite rare in these kinds of places.
Juliette is located in the North Ward area of Townsville and is another popular budget food joint. The highlight of this place in comparison to other similar restaurants is that it specializes in Italian food. The desserts here are particularly to die for and the range of exclusive Italian treats is a must try. Since it is a very budget friendly place it draws to its doors a large clientele.
There is always the option of grabbing a quick bite at a bar coupled with some drinks of course. When it comes to such options that are mild on your wallet, Flynns Irish Bar is a perfect place to spend your nights at. The drinks are reasonable priced and the bar is within easy reach of such Townsville serviced apartments in the area like Oaks M on Palmer.
When Indian food is sold at a reasonable price, it feels even more tempting to try. The Aalishan Indian Restaurant is authentically Indian and offers a range of all time favourites that works well with varying palates. Unlike most other Indian specialized restaurants that make sure you pay for the cost of sourcing ingredients from across the seas, the Aalishan ensures you get an authentic Indian experience – even in terms of the price.
