So you're dying to go out for some nice hot lunch, but you're trying to watch the euros after the Christmas excess.
Well fear not, because we've put together a great list of the top 10 places in Dublin to get a fancy meal for around a tenner (for the most part we've kept it under).
They might not be the ritz, but they'll put a smile on your face.
Not only is this one of the best restaurants in town, but they also happen to do loads of incredible of dishes and cocktails for just 7.77 every Sunday.
The only downside with this one (and the reason it isn't higher on the list) is as soon as you taste the food, or that tequila, you'll have had about five plates and eight cocktails further blowing the budget.
Admittedly, a bit more than a tenner, but it's worth that bit of a stretch for a box in this brilliant BBQ joint.
They're made for takeaway, but you can eat them there as well. Savage stuff.

For those of you not lucky enough to have found Gerry yet, he is an absolute gent who cooks great meals daily at a great price. The customers are a mixture of builders, suits and Guards, and everybody comes here for his great, cheap food.

This one is a great little trick. You go up to the salad counter in here, where you can often get great pasta and other treats, and then add a couple of salads. You'll get a good big portion for €8 and you can then take it downstairs into their wine bar and eat it.
No idea how they make money on this one, as the produce is spectacular.
Kanum is hands down one of the best takeaways in Dublin and every night of the week they have a special that is always €9.95. It varies from dishes like curries to sweet and sour chicken and is always served with rice and a bottle of water, so you feel like you are getting excellent value for money.
