Guzman Y Gomez’s $12 Chicken Mini Meal Leaves You With Enough Dosh For Seconds (Or Fifths)
At PEDESTRIAN.TV, we independently choose and write about stuff we love and think you’ll froth too. We have affiliate partnerships so we might get a bit of money from any purchase you make based on our recs, cool? Cool. FYI – prices are accurate and items in stock at the time of posting.
Ever winced at the grocery checkout after realising that avocado just broke the budget? Or considered donning your Karen wig to ask the manager why your restaurant meal costs so much? I can safely say you’re not alone, with food costs only adding to the general cost that is, well… living (or driving, or being housed, or, most definitely, eating).
But to avoid launching a tirade about life’s expensiveness — seriously, it’s like we wake up these days and we’ve somehow already spent $200 — I’m here to present you with a solution, and it's by none other than Guzman y Gomez, the folks responsible for curing your hangovers or providing the after-hours sustenance the night prior.
The Mexican fast food giant is combatting your grocery checkout woes and Karen urges with its $12 Chicken Mini Meal. That’s right, for just 12 smackeroonies, you can feast on a mini grilled chicken burrito (or bowl, IYKYK) paired with chipotle-seasoned fries and a drink.
That’s a whole damn meal for the price of just two coffees — and that’s speaking generously. Now, I know what you’re thinking — what will a $12 meal really get you?
But don’t let the price fool you. This isn’t some measly takeout meal that costs a fortune and somehow still needs an extra $3 for anchovies (WHAT THE F**K?), this is GYG, so you can rest assured it's the real deal.
The tastemakers are known for their high-quality, high-protein and nutritional ingredients that actually keep you fuller for longer. It’s why GYG has long been this writer’s more elevated choice of a hangover cure, because the last thing I want to add to my list of morning-after sins is artificial flavours or added preservatives.
The pulse of Australian culture, since 2005.

Also, the chicken in GYG’s $12 Mini Meal is 100 per cent free range and marinated for 12 hours, so you can bet your bottom dollar (or bottom $12) that it’ll taste like a million bucks (but for the price of $12).
So wave goodbye to the days of dropping well over $30 bucks on a meal or getting the scaries at the supermarket, because GYG has your evening meal plans sorted, with enough left over for the following morning!
Guzman y Gomez’s $12 Chicken Mini Meal is currently available at restaurants, via the GYG app, or exclusively through Uber Eats.
