🦆 Eugene Meal Deals

Best Cheap Eats in Eugene
Two People, Under $20

🦆 Eugene  ·  12 deals  ·  Updated August 2026

Eugene is a University of Oregon college town with one of the state's best food-cart scenes, and that's where the value lives: taquerias and birria trucks, house-made ramen and the best pho in town, campus banh mi, a slice cart in a downtown alley, all-vegan plates, and classic diners. Two eat extremely well under $20. One heads-up — a lot of these are carts with their own rhythms, some closed Sundays or mid-week, so check hours before you roll up.

El Super Taco

Super Burritos · Al Pastor Fries

A West 11th hole-in-the-wall that locals (and homesick Californians) swear has the best tacos in town — super burritos, al-pastor supreme fries, shrimp burritos, and three salsas (red, green, habanero). Prices are, in one regular's words, beyond reasonable, so two eat a full spread for well under $20. Fast, authentic, humble. Closed Mon.

Tacos Mex Birrieria

Quesabirria 2-for-$8 · $7 Breakfast Burrito

A 4.8-star birria spot on West 6th with homemade horchata and ridiculous value — two quesabirria tacos for $8, a huge $12 birria quesadilla (the consommé is so good you'll drink it), and a $7 breakfast burrito that's one of the biggest around. Two feast for around $15–18. Tiny enclosed-tent dining, super-friendly staff. Open daily.

Taqueria Mi Pueblo

3 Street Tacos $6 · Huge Breakfast Burritos

A beloved taqueria in the gravel lot of a junkyard — don't let the setting fool you. Three little street tacos run $6 with sides of rice, beans, sauce and pickled carrots, the breakfast burritos are enormous, and tacos are about $2 each. Two eat for around $15. A longtime local favorite, busy even on a Saturday afternoon. Open daily.

Dos Agaves OAX Food Truck

Oaxacan Truck · Fiesta Bowls & Burritos

A spotless Oaxacan food truck (4.9 stars) with packed fiesta bowls, an outstanding shrimp-fajita burrito, mole enchiladas and fresh chips and salsa. As one San Diegan put it, cheaper than most taco trucks with a lot more meat, so two eat for around $18. Order ahead online and it's hot and ready. Closed Sun.

Toshi's Ramen

House Broth & Noodles · Cheapest Bowl Beloved

A Eugene ramen institution for over a decade — broth and noodles made in house, rich and flavorful, at fair prices. Regulars rave that even the plain miso bowl (the cheapest thing on the menu) is a pleasant surprise, so two can do bowls for around $20. Busy but quick, and the front-of-house crew is great. Closed Sun.

Saigon Cafe

"Best Pho in Eugene" · Banh Mi

A warm, family-run spot on Commerce many call the best pho in Eugene — a rich, savory broth, tightly-wrapped fresh rolls with peanut sauce, crispy egg rolls, and even excellent vegetarian pho and spring rolls. Two eat for around $20, and the hospitality (constant laughing and smiles) is half the draw. A little out of the way, worth it. Closed Sun.

Za Cart Pizza

Downtown-Alley Slice Cart · Open Late

A tiny slice cart tucked in a downtown alley off Willamette, run by a genuinely lovely guy — quality ingredients, a hearty crust, and slices big enough that, as one regular says, you fill up with not much cash. Two split a few slices for around $12–15, open late into the night. A true Eugene character spot. Closed Mon–Tue — and keep an eye out: it's moving into a brick-and-mortar at 930 Olive St later in 2026.

Bao-Ing-Out

Fresh Baozi · Pork Pancakes · Big Portions

A standout counter in the Valley River Center food court doing fresh, made-daily Chinese — BBQ pork baozi, scallion pork pancakes, fried-chicken-and-rice plates with house kimchi and pickled daikon, plus egg drop soup. Big portions, lots of flavor, and they'll hand you a free sample. Two eat for around $18. Open daily.

Chaiyo Food Truck

Thai Cart · Pad Thai & Curries

A reliable Thai cart on West 11th by Sweet Tree Farms with big, filling portions you can rarely finish — pad thai, panang and yellow curry with generous chicken and veg, pot stickers, and Thai iced tea. As good as many sit-down Thai spots at cart prices, so two eat for around $20. Limited seating; closed weekends.

Acorn Community Cafe

All-Vegan · Surprisingly Reasonable

Eugene's vegan gem — a rotating all-vegan menu of biscuits with mushroom gravy, BBQ soy-curl sandwiches, gnocchi and seasonal hashes, in a cozy patio space that feels like a friend's house. They pay full wages so they don't take tips, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable, so two eat for around $20. Small, so it fills up. Closed Mon–Tue.

Brail's Restaurant

Classic Red-Building Diner · Big Breakfast

A can't-miss red-building diner that's been doing breakfast and lunch forever — chicken and waffles, a stacked Monte Cristo with crispy fries, corned-beef hash, loco moco, and pancakes heaped with bananas, all at honest diner prices. Two eat a full breakfast for around $20. Ample parking, open early daily (rare in Eugene). Worth the short wait.

MOD Pizza

One 11" Pizza Split Two Ways — $12.89, Unlimited Toppings

MOD fast-fires an 11-inch build-your-own pizza in about three minutes, and the model is one price however many of the 40-plus toppings go on it — the chain's own words are "the price always stays the same." The 11-inch MOD-size with unlimited toppings reads $12.89 at the 203 Coburg Rd store on MOD's own ordering system, August 2026 — $6.45 a head when two people split it, which is the cheapest honest way through the door. MOD sizes a salad it labels "Mega (Feeds 2)" outright at $14.89, so one order is dinner for both of you without touching the pizza menu. Want your own pie each? Two 6-inch minis with cheese run $13.78. Worth knowing before you go: your first purchase as a MOD Rewards member earns a free MOD-size pizza or salad, which makes round one genuinely two for the price of one. Drinks still fit: two 16 oz fountains add $6.78 and the loaded 11-inch with both lands at $19.67. MOD prices by store, so confirm at yours — the spread across the cities we checked runs $11.89 to $16.59 for the same pizza.

Buffalo Wild Wings

Pick 6 — Seasonal Meal-for-Two Deal

The Pick 6 lets two build a shared meal — six items across wings, tenders and sides — from about $19.99. But it’s a limited-time/seasonal offer (it comes back for football season and March Madness), not an everyday menu item, so check whether it’s running before you count on it. No location in Eugene proper — the nearest is at Gateway in Springfield (2770 Gateway St), right on the Eugene line.
