Broadway is packed with tourists, but locals do eat there—just selectively. Here are three spots that are consistent, affordable, and actually worth it.

1) Robert’s Western World

  • Order: Fried bologna sandwich
  • Why: Classic, cheap, and surprisingly good

2) Acme Feed & Seed

  • Order: Hot chicken tacos or a burger
  • Why: Decent food in a lively space with a rooftop

3) Assembly Food Hall

  • Order: Anything with a long line
  • Why: Multiple options and fast service

Bottom Line

If you’re stuck on Broadway, Robert’s is the most authentic bite. For groups, go to Assembly Food Hall.
