❤️ Best $15ish meal(s): Turkey burger and fries, Grilled chicken wrap, 6 whole wings

Why go?

A yellow graphic with a faint city map background reads: “$15ish Meal Map. Explore the map,” with a right-pointing arrow.

The Spot Bar and Grill has a menu that pretty much offers whatever you’re in the mood for, from classic appetizers like nachos and mozzarella sticks to wings, salads and wraps to burgers and hoagies. Almost everything on the menu costs less than $15 with the exception of a few salads.

What to order 

The burgers range from $9.89 for your basic hamburger to $13 for a Beyond burger for vegans. I got the turkey burger for $11.55 and made it a meal with fries, which brought the total to $14.20.

All of the wraps come with lettuce, tomato, mayo, bell peppers, onions and banana peppers and the prices vary depending on the meat. A grilled chicken wrap came to just $8.89.

But a fan favorite is their breaded whole wings, and six of those come to just $10.80.

Good to know before you go

  • The Spot is more of a bar atmosphere than a family-friendly restaurant.
  • There is bar seating as well as several tables with TVs and pool tables for entertainment.
  • The restaurant has discontinued their Menufy ordering option, although it still appears online. Order online using toasttab or Door Dash.
