Medians across the 98 Virginia cafes we hold a price for, against the same item averaged nationally. Franchisees set their own prices, so treat these as what to expect rather than a quote.
The same 5 items priced at each of the 98 Virginia cafes we hold a full price list for. $2.70 separates the two ends.
Cheapest cafe
$34.05
Alexandria - Alexandria Commons @ Duke St
Alexandria, VA
Dearest cafe
$36.75
Pentagon - Concourse South Food Court (No Public Access)
Arlington, VA
Each cafe sets its own prices, so two cafes in the same town can differ. A cafe inside an airport, a hospital, a campus or a motorway service area usually sits at the dearer end, wherever it is.
The same 5 item basket averaged per town, cheapest first, against a Virginia average of $34.19.
