Uni Life: This Week’s Cheap Eats in Wollongong

Now that our favourite local haunts are starting to re-open, we thought, what better time than to get into another edition of Cheap Eats?

Pizza Tree Corrimal

Recently my children were requesting pasta on our usual takeaway night, something we don’t get very often. So, I went looking for pasta options that weren’t going to cost $30 per person, and that’s when I stumbled across Pizza Tree in Corrimal. Not only was each dish on $15 but they were also incredibly good! Don’t miss the Garlic and Fresh Rosemary bread, it is unbelievably satisfying.


Chicko’s Chicken Shop

If you are hanging out with friends and all wanting something different to eat, Chicko’s in Wollongong can satisfy everyone in your group. With Salads, Hot Food, Burgers and Desserts, Chicko’s offer a variety of sizes to suit your hunger and budget with Hot Food Packs starting from $5.30.


Culture Sauce

These massive burgers are absolutely delicious and can certainly fill you up without needing to spend extra money on sides. Culture Sauce offers a wide range of burger options with some very interesting options like the Onion Pakora Burger, Japanese Chicken Burger, and Pickled Pork Burger. Of course, they also have all the usual options as well with Cheese Burgers, Hawaiian Burgers and more.
