there to get a hotdog. I definitely like The Varsity here in Atlanta but their hotdogs aren't the same.

in Atlanta. Do locals really like The Varsity? I mean, the service seems to be intentionally rude and the food is just meh at best IMO. It honestly seems like the only appeal to the place is that it's been there a long time.

The Varsity - that's why it's crowded, especially at mealtime. The difference is people who come in from somewhere else aren't used to the loud, fast, and sometimes rude service. But people who go there on any regular basis get used to it even it they don't like it.
Their food has its good side. Isn't the best but is somewhat unique - for me, satisfies a craving I get on an occasional basis. Don't want it regularly but have to have it occasionally.
But that's why my comments about Skins' - their hotdogs are different - have to have them occasionally as well.

So food isn’t that good, not pleasant atmosphere, and rude service . . .

Have you ever had a fried pie or orange shake there? Them’s good though I would never go out of my way to eat there.

Have you ever tried the Roughhouse in Abbeville? I like Skins but that place is way better than Skins. Still had the glass bottle Cokes, last time I was there. On the square and worth the drive.

I agree on the Roughhouse in Abbeville being better. Saxon’s in Abbeville is also better. If you want to do Skin’s go to the original one in the mill village in Anderson.

It seems like a money laundering operation.

I go pass there 4-5 tines a day. It's always dead and never open. I don't see how they pay that rent with less than double digit profit per day.
