Throw out the healthy when stopping in to eat at one of Atlanta's most prized eating joints. Don't even think about the calories just ENJOY the goodness of the Varsity! Could not pass this up today and stopped in for a chili dog and hamburger combo with fires. Oh and you know we had to have a Frosted Orange to wash it down. This place takes me back to when I was a kid and got to come to the Georgia Tech football games with the Boy Scouts of America. Great memories eating with friends and family over the years here in Atlanta. Some things never change and that is in a good way. Never did become a Tech fan but do love my Dawgs! What do you have! I think we will have a natty! Go Dawgs, 2021 National Champs!

As crowded as ever-the defectors choice for families with young children. Often packed on a weekend afternoon, you’ll have to search carefully for a seat sometimes. Lines are long, food not healthy, but so tasty. An Atlanta tradition.

What a place! The unique charm that only a place of 50+ years can produce. It’s beauty is the simplicity of it. Hamburgers , hot dogs, onion rings, and fries. And it hasn’t changed since my first visit 20+ years ago - except they don’t take cash now - that’s probably different. Nestled between Atlanta downtown and the Georgia Tech campus, I love this spot. Make sure you learn the lingo before you order - I’m a C Dog All The Way. Enjoy!!

Always a delicious experience! I went on a Wednesday at 5pm and it wasn't very busy. Love their onion rings and chili dogs. Get the orange drink too! Yummy!!! I wish they still had the curbside area open. Lots of memories made here through the years!

IS this restaurant any good because I had it and it was pretty disgusting.

Quavion Turner | Dec 12, 2020
MisterBoston | Dec 13, 2020

It's really great if you like junk food like chili dogs and onion rings. It's moreso an Atlanta classic destination and atmosphere, so it's "fun" to visit. Most people love it...some people hate it. You don't go for the salad.

I don't understand why everyone LOVES this place. Our fries were soggy, cold onion rings, hot dogs that make Sonic's look gourmet, and a burger thats smaller than the palm of my hand. What is wrong with everyone.

How long is the typical lunch hour wait?

Skylar Cardenas | Dec 13, 2018
Lynn Shook | Dec 14, 2018

On weekdays, Get there before 11.30 you can walk right up to counter. From 12 to 1 I would guess maybe a 5 minute wait. Go to registers that are not near doorways. Non Tech football weekends, maybe 2 minute wait of that.

Do they have vegetarian burger or sandwich?
