The Varsity Downtown

Editorial Review

An iconic burger and dog mecca where the counter staff smacks you with a “what’ll ya have.” U.S. presidents, Muhammad Ali and Elvis dined here. Hordes still do, especially on game day. Signature items like the shake-like frosted orange still rock. Add a chili dog, a small basket of trademark rings and adjourn to one of its TV rooms. Or grub in your car while parked in its old-fashioned drive-in section.
