About this business

This local legend is billed as the world's biggest drive-in and has been a staple on the Atlanta dining scene since 1928. Countless burgers, fries, shakes and more than two miles of hot dogs are served here every day, along with more Coca-Cola than anywhere else in the world. Dine in your car, seat yourself in one of the many cafeteria-style rooms, or simply order your greasy lunch at the 150-foot (46-meter) long stainless-steel counter and go.

Whenever I need to take care of my grease craving, I go to the Varsity! I have two dogs, two all the way steaks, fries, rings, a peach pie & a large PC!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! What a fun place! On a recent trip, my husband and I ate there 3 times! Great chili dogs and onion rings. Very popular place!

I love their Frozen Orange in summer! Food can be very oily and greasy, a line can be long before/after GT game or any other major event in downtown. I think Varsity is a bit pricey than McDonald or Burger King. No refill for drink.
