<p>Bartley's (on Mass Ave) is essential, although I'm not sure I'd call it cheap (maybe "boston-cheap" but $9 for a burger and fries...). I recommend the apple pie milkshake!</p>
<p>b. good on Dunster is another place to check out for burgers.</p>
<p>I recommend Pinnochio's pizza... 2 slices of <em>amazing</em> sicilian for $3.95 (try the spinach + the tomato basil!). It's on Winthrop street, just off of JFK.</p>
