"Char Grill is a Raleigh institution, and customers line up during the lunch hour for the half-pound, charcoal-grilled burgers. The signature burger with fries and a medium drink is less than $9, but for an even more affordable meal aim for a grilled cheese ($2.22) or hotdog ($3.17). The BLT is only $3.09, and an apple turnover for dessert is a cool $1.51." - Matt Lardie
