Grocery stores aren’t the only places the cost of food has gone up... restaurants are having the same problem.
But a food website called, Cookie Rookie, looked at the prices of dining out and our city fared pretty well in the rankings. Jacksonville landed at #10 in a list of the cheapest cities in the country for eating out. It’s a 9-way tie for 10th place but we are still in the Top 10, so we’ll take it.
Cookie Rookie analyzed how much it costs for two people to enjoy a three course meal at a mid-range restaurant without breaking the bank. The study also took into account each cities’ favorite meals, state dishes and where the most cheap-eat restaurant are located.
Fort Worth came in at #1, with a three-course meal for two people at a mid-priced restaurant costing $60.

1. Fort Worth $60
