Thuringian specialties are: Thüringer Rostbratwurst Thuringian roaster sausage, Rostbrätel roasted meat. These can be found e.g. at the Grillteufel food stalls.
You'll find more on the menu in Noll Oberlauengasse, Stilbruch Wagnergasse and most other restaurants. R2, just off the market square, is a sitdown restaurant with good burgers and steaks. A very pleasant place with student atmosphere is Café Immergrün. It is located in vincinity of the Pulverturm, the entrance a bit hidden in the back yard. Not far from there is another atmospheric cafe, Quirinus.
As Jena is a student town and a town in the east of Germany, prices are slightly lower than in Western Germany.
