not necessarily cheap but great value
Mitras Canteen on Main/14th for mom's kitchen middle eastern (falafel & veg platter for us non-meat-eaters): http://www.dinehere.ca/restaurant.asp?r=2890
So.cial at Le Magasin in Gastown. Notwithstanding the lame name & restaurant, the offshoot deli across the hall serves up an insane muffaletta with home made potato chips. Guaranteed leftovers if you order a whole one: http://www.dinehere.ca/restaurant.asp?r=2546
Duffin's Donuts tortas, 41st & Knight. Sadly the 33rd/Main location is boarded up. I used to do an occasional donut run to this asian hottie staffed donut shop/blue collar truck stop. Sigh. $2.50 or so for a fresh viet/spanish sub: http://www.dinehere.ca/restaurant.asp?r=1854

The VCC campus downtown is a nice place to get some gourment eats, because the students studying to be chefs serve up the entrees there and you can get some good meals for nice prices.
The Marpole Community Centre has affordable meals on some days (breakfast on Friday for $2). I live close by, but haven't gone over to check out the repast, but if Very Veronica was there I'd be sure to show up.

There is no way you can slap together fries and a burger faster then mcdonalds does.
Lets say your on your way home from work, no doubt there is a mcdonalds on your way home, so you just spend 2-4 minutes in the drive threw and continue on your way home, get home and eat. How can you possibly get home, cook some beef and bake or fry french fries, then clean up the pots, pans, kitchen, dishes you ate with in less time then 5 minutes?
I call BULL SHIT on you.
Best cheap food is wendys, but donairs are great, though its just meat, lamb maybe? with a yummy sweet sauce and cheese.
Go to Edo japan, such good food, the location in west Edmonton mall is my favorite.

It's part of the religion, religious teachings of the Guru's, to take care of those in need that we ( non sikhs ) are not generally aware of. It's not all turbans, daggers, and bangles.
Thanks for the answer.It's part of the religion, religious teachings of the Guru's, to take care of those in need that we ( non sikhs ) are not generally aware of. It's not all turbans, daggers, and bangles.
I find Wendy's beef is consistently dry. I used to go there all the time in years gone by when they actually had a decent salad bar. Any one remember that?
For quick cheap junk food, I say Costco is the best.

Yo, if everybody here likes chinese food, then go to honolu lu cafe. There's one on Kingsway, just past Joyce. And the other on Main, near KingEd. Their lunch specials and night, I think past 9pm, are about 5.95-7.95 with drink of your choice.

Fresgo is still around in Surrey, but not anymore in the west end. Some club is there now
agree's with Veronica about Duffin's on 33rd and Main. My buddies and I used to live in the area and would frequent the place, plus the family tried setting up their daughters with us when we went in. The things we would do for free donuts =)
Hawkers on Main near King Edward St has excellent Malaysian food for a reasonable price and portion.

I dont think I have had a good donut here in a very long time. The only good albeit super sweet made in Canada donut seems to Krispy Kreme regular glazed when it's still warm from the oven. Otherwise, only the US seems to know how to make donuts now. I think Nuffy's about 35 years ago was good. I dont know how people can eat Timmy's donuts.
