parish cafe, rattlesnake and bangkok blue come to mind

Not sure Parish is something I'd call budget...dropped $30 on lunch there a few days ago for two people...

OP said under 20 a person. We often eat at Parish for under that. So, apparently, did you.

Thank you everyone. We will be using public transportation to major tourist attractions. Any places under $20 PP next to those attractions?

[Jenny Ondioline]

There are a LOT of major tourist attractions around here. If you could narrow it down a bit, that would help. For instance, you're in luck if you're planning on going to the Paul Revere House in the North End, but less so if you're going out to Concord.

Hmm, don't know if this is too late.

From the follow up question, it sounds to me like you'll be staying around Copley Square? If so, I like a Berkeley Perk (near cnr of Chandler and Dartmouth) for breakfast/brunch. Good value sandwiches and good coffee. Definitely under $20.

I'll suggest Shino Express on Newbury, one short block from Copley T stop - $1-2/piece for Nigiri.

And Bukowski's has good burgers & hotdogs, The Other Side has generally good food, the Summer Shack and Legal Seafoods are more expensive but you can still get good things for under $20.

Shino Express is now called Snappy Sushi.

Thai Basil on Newbury St. has very inexpensive lunch combos (under $10). Their regular menu isn't crazy expensive either.

The Globe on Boylston. Casual, but good sandwiches and entrees.

Steve's Greek on corner of Newbury and Hereford.
