There is a bakery in a small shopping centre just across the road and behind the main lifts in 1850 where you can get lunch (panini and a coffee) for under 10 euro.
The Courchneige hotel/restaurant on the left hand side of the bellecote piste as you ski back to 1850 from the Altiport area is good value if not quite cheap and a very nice setting. I think the children's menu for example was 12 euro, and I think my soup etc was under 10, but they also have much more impressive and expensive things on the menu.
If you feel like skiing down to La Tania there are plenty of cafes and restaurants on the piste side there that are good value.

Hotel Courche-Neige , next to the Bellecote drag lift. It looks expensive ( 4 star ), and is, BUT ---- The starter is 15 euros and you can go up as often as you like - Salmon, parma ham, oysters, shrimps , delicious proper French salads, homemade soup, you name it. We would spend an hour there, and go up 3 or 4 times.

If you ski to the bottom of 1650 you can take the escalator to the main street in 1650. Bars and restos are quite a bit cheaper there than on the pistes. I went to Rockys Bar but there are several others including a good patisserie/sandwich shop next door to Rockys. Leave your skis at the bottom of the piste, preferably locked up.

The hole in the wall place right at the bottom of the piste in 1650 (part of a hotel, but fotgotten the name) has an 8E chicken nugget and chips which is surprisingly good (real chicken pieces) but you only have a choice of sitting outside, probably on the piste as not many chairs even. The burger place in la Tania (far left as you head into la tania, before the flat run down to the gondola - http://www.publeskilodge.com/ ) does good burgers for E12. The sherpa in meribel mottarett does a great take away burger (huge!) for E7. I you get to Les Menuires, try the igloo on Boyes piste - good pizza E12 - add chips and serves two.

1650 bottom on the escalator and turn right up to La Boulotte, or get to it by going to the right of the main slope down the road between La Portetta and the Child nursery place, bottom of the road on the left.
Quality food at reasonable prices, with Banter thrown in for free.
