The Varsity Diner is located in Atlanta, GA. The building looks to be from the late 30's - early 40's time period with some modern retro-style signs, one of which mentioned the place has been here since 1928. This place was absolutely enormous, imagine a McDonald's with better burgers and about 6 or 8 times larger. 04-08
