Hey everyone, thanks so much for watching! If you are familiar with the area and know of more reasonably priced options around downtown St Pete let us know in the comments. If you are interested in more places to eat and drink in St Pete be sure to subscribe as we have more local content coming up.
Omg thank you so much for recommending me Bangkok Thai. i gotta try it. i remember when Chang Mai was still open on central and my dad and i ate there a lot. Bum to see it closed but i’m definitely going to bangkok thai! keep up the good work guys, and see you around! i’m a local also
@@fortrud thanks so much for your comment, we also loved Chang Mai, we would often alternate between going to Chang Mai and Bangkok Thai. We were also sad when they closed :( If you see us around town make sure to say hi!
Thanks so much for watching, guys. We hear a lot of people complain about the price of going out to eat around downtown St. Pete, so we hope this video will help some people to realize that there are some good, reasonable options in the area!
I'm glad I watched this as I was eating lunch otherwise I would have been starving!! All of these places look like great options and for decent prices. I'd love to try the Stromboli and the curry and tacos would be on my list too. Great video!
Hi Heather. Three Daughters Brewery does a lot of sours. Overflow Brewing specializes in fruit beers, some of which are on the sweeter side and taste like a cross between a cider and a beer.
First stop , Thai and ordering my favourite Dishes. I'm often making Penang Curry and Pad see ew here at home and $8.50 per meal was pretty good...Love ya work guys! Not sure how you guys fit all this food and drinks in....not sure I could eat this much restaurant food all the time.....you seem to have a lot of leftover, including that Gyro! I might not have eaten breakfast the next day, but there you were again having French toast for breaky...LOL. Well done for getting it all in, but no wonder you skipped lunch the next day! I Need to ask - Whats Grits?
We love to cook but our past efforts to make Thai food did not turn out great, so we feel fortunate to have a reasonable Thai place so close to home. That's great though that you are able to make good Penang Curry and Pad See Ew at home! Grits is basically ground boiled ground corn. Not much flavor to it by itself, but when covered in butter/cheese/etc... it can be pretty delicious!
During a time when the price of almost everything is rising, it's definitely important to know the spots where you can still grab some cheap food! Thanks for watching, Greg.
We love food videos. All these spots look really good and the prices are decent. The Taco place is definitely our favorite. The food looked amazing! Awesome video guys😁
This question is not about the restaurants. I loved your sling back bag (backpack). We are going to St. Pete in November and have been watching a lot of your videos. You two are great together. Love your videos. We are going to try out a lot of the restaurants you’ve visited. Thanks for the suggestions.
Hello, Lorraine. I really loved that backpack as well, but unfortunately it eventually stopped being functional and I had to replace it. I think Skylar purchased it on Amazon, but it would have been years ago and I can't say for sure. Thank you so much for the kind and encouraging comment. We're really glad the channel has encouraged you to try out some new places around St. Pete!
Yeah, we've finally learned that it's best to just ask for the spice on the side and add it yourself. Because sometimes ordering "just a little" hot ends up way more than that 😅
My family & I have enjoyed Central Coffee Shop for years. Friendly & good. And we have been to Bangkok Thai too! Liked their beef & broccoli. We got the boat once cuz there were 6 of us.
We've never had a bad experience at that place. The staff is always so welcoming and the prices are great. I didn't even know you could get a boat at Bangkok, but next time we have a a group of people in town, we'll know what to do!
@@Explorcation I hope they still have it. We had lunch. We moved tables together. It was fun. (Ceviche on Beach Drive used to be economical, but the food was Nutritious, lots of choices & Outstanding. We went there when it was on Central by Ponce de Leon Hotel. I am going to check it out.) Thanks for the Great restaurant videos!
Can't say I blame you for skipping lunch - don't think I could have handled all that food in same day either! All the food looked great, although the panang curry and burrito appeal to me the most 🙂 Some pretty good value places, especially given how much it looked like you got for your money.
Yeah, after all the videos we've made you'd think we'd be better at predicting how much we can eat in a day. Yet, we almost never make it to all the food spots that we plan to 😆.
@@OurTravelPlace exactly! It is easier when we are exploring around where we live because we can take leftovers, but when we are outside of downtown we try not to over order since we know we have to eat it all LOL
All of the food looked delicious as could be. I personally love breakfast food and could eat it all day long. I laughed when you said you couldn't finish your meal. Capone's came to mind lol. Thanks for always providing amazing informationl content. Keep the content coming. LLWAV!!
It was really good, especially when considering how inexpensive it is. It's so nice that you are still able to get a reasonably priced breakfast in downtown St Pete! Thanks for watching, Roman!
Well John, when I (Skylar) was in college, I lived almost entirely off of ramen noodles and McDonalds $1 menu. So if if this is how college kids are eating these days, they got it good! 😅 In all seriousness though, we do cook 90% of our meals and generally keep those quite healthy, so that way we don't have to feel guilty when we do eat out and make some not so healthy choices. For organic food, St. Pete has Evos, Cider Press Cafe, and Love Food Central that I know of. Obviously neither is going to make a "Cheap Eats" video, but we have heard good things about all 3!
Hey guys!!! Thanks so much for the awesome info!! We got to hang out in downtown St. Pete today and tried out Poppo’s!! LOVE IT!!! Can’t wait to try out all of the other recommendations you’ve made!
Thanks so much, Jenny! Glad to hear you had a good time in St. Pete. We'll be posting our "Top 8 daily drink specials" video within the next few weeks too, so hopefully you can get some good ideas from that one as well!
We passed by all these places while we were pumping up the local economy on our last visit. These places are much more in line with our normal choices and budget. We passed Bangkok Thai at least 5 times. I wish now I had looked in the window. Looks amazing inside.
Hey Bob thanks for watching 😊 next time you visit you may just have to give one (or a few 😆) of these places a try. Do you have a favorite restaurant you tried from your most recent visit?
@@Explorcation I had the most fun at Ford’s Garage. The wait staff were great. The Brick and Mortar had the best food on the trip. We were very casual and worn from a day of walking miles for the 400 Beach Seafood but they were very accommodating. We were waiting for Doc Fords and had drinks in hand but they had a burst water pipe just before we were seated so we wound up at Teak. So lucky to get a seat, awesome view and excellent service and food. We also had a meal at the Banyan Cafe between the Chihuly museum tour and the glass blowing exhibit. Just to name a few.
@@BobCarlson you made it to some great restaurants..and even a few we haven't been to yet. We like Ford's Garage a lot too..great food and a fun atmosphere. I am glad you got to experience Teak, you cant beat that downtown view!
Yeah we suck at cooking Thai food, so we feel so fortunate to have a good, reasonably priced Thai place so close to our home. The stromboli was really solid. We're glad we eventually found the place 😅
@@Explorcation Same here. I would love to learn to cook Thai food. Btw have you ever been to the restaurant Sea Salt (downtown St. Pete)? If not, please go and try it. Absolutely fabulous!! and between 3pm and 6pm they have happy hour on food!!! I hope your week is going well. Can't wait for the weekend!!
@@JC-po6yj Thanks for the suggestion, JC. We have not been to Sea Salt, but we do plan on making a "top happy hours" video at some point in the near future, so we'll be sure to check Sea Salt out in that video!
@@JC-po6yj can't wait to check it out. We're currently working on a "nightly specials" video for food and drinks. We'll finish filming those this week. After that, we'll start hitting all of the happy hours. All this eating and drinking is exhausting, but someone has to do it 😂. Let us know if you have any other happy hour recommendations!
Yeah the Gyro is ridiculously huge. We normally split it and it fills us both up. Sadly our area doesn't have too much great Mexican food. either, but we are slowly discovering a few more really good spots. We home you are able to at least get the ingredients to cook some decent Mexican(ish) food at home!

We’re visiting St Petersburg from Orlando, we appreciate the great tips for cheap meals. Hopefully we’ll meet one day. Thanks
Our pleasure, Jose! We hope you have a great time in St. Pete... and if you ever to run into us, be sure to stop and say hi!
Another beautifully made video. And very informative. Looking forward to visiting the places you visited. Thank you.
Thanks so much for the kind comment. We're glad you enjoyed the video and we hope you enjoy these spots as much as we did!
Thanks for taking us to St. Pete.
Our pleasure!
Thanks for this! Always good to find new spots to eat when in town. We appreciate vlogs like these especially close to home!

It was actually Skylar's first time trying Stromboli. I think it's safe to say it won't be his last!
Can’t wait to check these out! Can you recommend breweries to enjoy ciders? Thanks! 😀🍻
Hi Heather. Three Daughters Brewery does a lot of sours. Overflow Brewing specializes in fruit beers, some of which are on the sweeter side and taste like a cross between a cider and a beer.
Thank you!!😀
@@heathercoy744 oops I meant to say CIDERS for Three Daughters, they typically offer a lot of ciders.

@@AquariusTraveller If you do, let us know what you think! It seems people really love grits or can't stand them.
Cheap !👍Sounds good to me ! All places look great !

Yes we always have room for tacos! We are going hopefully going to do some filming for a Taco Tuesday spot this week and can't wait!

Who doesn't love cheap eats! Tony likes adding spice to his curry as well. I can barely handle the spices it comes with.
Yeah, we've finally learned that it's best to just ask for the spice on the side and add it yourself. Because sometimes ordering "just a little" hot ends up way more than that 😅
gotta get yourself a calzone or Stromboli at Angelo's. absolutely the best in st pete
That's a great tip, Mark. We've never done their stromboli, but we have done the calzone and it is both massive and delicious!
My family & I have enjoyed Central Coffee Shop for years. Friendly & good. And we have been to Bangkok Thai too! Liked their beef & broccoli. We got the boat once cuz there were 6 of us.

Hi guys, we're going to Poppo's Taqueria. !
That's great! We really hope that you enjoyed it! We haven't been since we made that video, so we're definitely due for a return visit.
Free soup and egg rolls…that’s awesome and affordable! So nice to have so many inexpensive options available!
Yeah it's so nice. They have them on the table for you pretty much the second you sit down!
Do you have a cheap eats video for Clearwater Beach ?
Not yet, Michael, but that would be a fun video to make some day! Thanks for watching.

@@OurTravelPlace exactly! It is easier when we are exploring around where we live because we can take leftovers, but when we are outside of downtown we try not to over order since we know we have to eat it all LOL

the food on minutes 10:00 looks so yummy,i like the cheese look
nice review
Thanks so much for watching, we were able to enjoy soo much delicious food for this episode :)
I find your video very informative as I will stay in downtown St Pete’s in a couple of weeks. Thank you for sharing
We're so happy to hear that you found the video to be helpful. We hope you enjoy your time in downtown St. Pete as much as we do!
My husband and I will be visiting St Pete in a month at this is so helpful. I think we will try all these places to eat. Thanks so much!❤
That's awesome! We hope you enjoy them all as much as we do!
you clearly only had a few hours to locate these picks and probably asked people who recently moved to St. Pete...
If you have any other recommendations in downtown St Pete that offer multiple regular menu meal items for under $10, we'd love to hear them!
That french toast looked so good at Central Coffee Shoppe. I am going there in 2 weeks.
It was really good, especially when considering how inexpensive it is. It's so nice that you are still able to get a reasonably priced breakfast in downtown St Pete! Thanks for watching, Roman!
This was a fun video....loved that you showed all your food choices and the music was right along with the cool vibe of the video. Thanks!
We're so glad you enjoyed it. We put a lot of thought into matching the content with the right type of music. Thanks so much for noticing!
You guys eat like college students, lol. Any healthy food options (organic or keto) in St. Pete?
Well John, when I (Skylar) was in college, I lived almost entirely off of ramen noodles and McDonalds $1 menu. So if if this is how college kids are eating these days, they got it good! 😅 In all seriousness though, we do cook 90% of our meals and generally keep those quite healthy, so that way we don't have to feel guilty when we do eat out and make some not so healthy choices.

We've never been able to eat all of our order at Angelos. The portions really are great for the price.
