Make the most of our offers and get all your meals on campus

Living in London on a student budget can be a challenge, but did you know that you can easily eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at LSE for under £10 a day? 

Here is your ultimate guide to making the most of LSE menus this summer: 

☕️ Breakfast under £2 

Getting to campus early pays off - literally. Here's two unbeatable options to start your day: 

• Porridge (75p): Head up to the Fourth Floor Restaurant (open from 8am) and grab a warming bowl of porridge for just 75p! 
• The Early Bird Deal (£1.80): On campus before 9:30am? You can get a piping hot coffee or tea AND a freshly baked croissant for just £1.80. Currently available at Beveridge Café, Plaza Café and Beaver's Brew. 

🍝 Lunch under £3

Here are our top lunchtime meals that you can enjoy for less than the price of a latte: 

• Jacket Potato & Beans (£1.50): A classic British comfort food. Head over to The Shaw Café for this steal. 
• Pasta with Sauce of the Day (£2): A massive student favourite, find this daily special at the Fourth Floor Restaurant, just make sure to get there before they close at 2pm.
• Sticky Chicken Rice Pot (£2.75): If you want something a bit different, pop into K54 for this flavourful Asian-inspired rice pot.

🥡 Dinner under £5

Aside from Cooper's Restaurant and George IV Pub which stay open late, most of our campus cafés close around 3:30-4:30pm during the summer. So to budget dinner, you can use these to be strategic: 

• The Pre-4pm Meal Deal (£4.50): Take a quick study break in the afternoon and head to LSE Garrick before they close at 4pm. Grab their £4.50 meal deal (a sandwich, snack and drink) and save it for dinner!
• Too Good To Go: Check the Too Good To Go app throughout the week to rescue unsold food bundles from selected LSE outlets for a fraction of the price. Pick it up on your way home or back to the library for an affordable evening meal. 
• Hear & Eat: If you bought a cold dish earlier in the day (using one of our deals) and want a hot dinner, use the free microwaves on campus. You can find them at the King's Chambers Student Salon, the Saw Swee Hock Student Centre and Old Building.

The math

Breakfast: Porridge at Fourth Floor Restaurant = £0.75

Lunch: Pasta of the Day at Fourth Floor Restaurant = £2.00 

Dinner: LSE Garrick Meal Deal = £4.50

Total: £7.25! You even have £2.75 left over, perfect for an afternoon treat or an extra coffee.
