★★★★★ 5.0 Reid Christenberry · Aug 2025

Great decades-long favorite food items. I love the chili cheeseburgers and onion rings. They don’t have an ice cream counter, which was a great dessert experience at the older Varsity. Otherwise, it was so much fun seeing grandparents introducing their young ones as Varsity clients. Plus families enjoying chili dogs, fries, etc!

★★★★★ 5.0 Jeffrey Johnson · Jan 2026

Great food, awesome service, and wonderful fried pies. Always love stopping at the Varsity for some chili or slaw dogs.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Mama Mimi · May 2025

Overall, the food was good and everyone else in our group enjoyed their meals. My experience was a bit mixed—I ordered a burger that came out cold, requested a remake, and unfortunately, the second one was also cold. The third burger was finally warm—not hot, but definitely better than the first two. My mom said her peach pie was cold and soft, seems to be baked instead of deep fried. On a positive note, the onion rings were excellent! Hoping this was just an off day.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Joshua Herrin · Sep 2025

Cmon now. My burger, sad little tiny thing that it was, had two bun bottoms for bread. Everything looks like they cooked it last month and left it out until someone ordered. I have yet to go to a Varsity that was anything more than unremarkable. The McDonald’s nearby is a better, and cheaper choice. This was almost $20. The customer service was great but the food is absolute trash.

Ok so it's not a very big sitting area for the amount of large crowd entering/exiting the facility but the food is consistent with Varsity standards. Not fast like The Atlanta Varsity but man the fries were hot and delicious. Chek them out if you get a chance
