The Varisty Inn has been in Ocean City for many, many years and is a favorite for breakfast whenever I get to the beach here. Not much atmosphere but the service is friendly and quick and the food is always good!

The Varsity Inn has been a long time favorite of Ocean City New Jersey locals and visitors alike. I never bothered to go in there though because I thought it was just a burger joint. Well- let –me- tell- you!!! The Varsity Inn is currently recommended by the OCNJ librarians. They eat there once a week. The ladies had high... More

I have been going to this place for years. Always good food and good service. You can get the entire menu anytime of the day. Winter time usually very easy to get a table. Summer months (especially weekends) does get busy but if you go early you will never have a problem. Ocean City does not have many great restaurant... More

Soup & Sandwich: Baked New Jersey tomato soup with a BLT. The soup is their specialty; and with a sandwich, made a tasty inexpensive lunch. College pennants decorate the walls and rafters.

Working down the street we love this place for lunch, especially in the off season (October through May). Service is quick, staff is friendly and food is good. If it's your first time you have to get the tomato soup (or as we like to call it "pizza in a cup"). Good place for breakfast/lunch and best of all it... More
