I’m an ATL native -can’t count the number of times I’ve been -food and atmosphere are always awesome!👍
The French exchange student that my friends hosted wanted to eat there all the time -his parents came for a visit -he took them there straight from the airport !!🤣🤣👍 He was also mesmerized by my sons F150 truck -maybe he was from Southern France 😬!

If I ever go back to ATL I want to try the Varsity out

You ain’t a true GT fan if you don’t make a pilgrimage to the varsity at least once in your life😂 best fast food restaurant on earth.

How did she order 4 different things at the same register, like a McDonalds? Their traditional style was always that went to that counter for ONE thing. All items were separated by different ordering counters. ONE thing at a time.

I live in Athens and we had one here for years.. devasted when it closed about a year or so ago
Supposed to be building another here in Athens and one in Bethlehem right off 316.. I can't wait
.. I could no lie eat about 15 baked dogs in one sitting and live the frosted orange.. it complements the dog so well.. PS Georgia bulldogs for life baby.. I'm case y'all weren't aware Athens and the Dawgs dominate the whole country

Another commie agitprop propaganda ultra-leftie rag. They don't fool anybody, like they think they do. Sponsors & advertisers, beware.

[@jockellis]

I don’t miss being a newspaper reporter for 25 years and I have a Varsity in Dawsonville to zip to from Cumming. The Varsity’s HQ is in Dawsonville.

I have never ate there but I recently ordered their hot dog chili sauce online, it is a really good sauce.
