Ok to be honest, I wasn't initially excited when my girl friends picked burgers at Varsity Club for…read moregirls night. However, I was so pleasantly surprised! I didn't do any research beforehand and was definitely expecting a fast food type vibe. Not the case! Varsity Club is such a cool little spot in the River Market! For fellow Kansas Citians - it almost gave a Jim's Alley Bar vibe. Bonus points given for the fact there was a disco ball. The smash burgers are delicious! Instead of ordering with your server, you order via QR code and pick up your order outside. It was pretty busy the Friday night we were there, and our food took a bit longer than expected. We had drinks while we waited though so no matter! Definitely worth a stop in!

It's all delicious. They have an amazing selection of local and non local brews obviously! The service is top notch they make sure you are taken care of and they explain how all the taps work. It's a great place to catch a game and get some food and drinks!

This is a fun concept and a good place to watch a game however, when it comes to food the prices…read moredon't quite justify the quality. I come here because it is convenient, always has been for me and now even more so because of the streetcar and because of the self serve beer wall. If that intimidates you don't fret because there is a full bar and some taps behind the bar the bartenders can serve you from. Sometimes I choose to do this because the beer wall can get pricey quickly but, it's a novel and fun concept that works for downtown. The food though I feel is overpriced, like why am I paying $15 for tots that are barely topped with toppings and really aren't even a sizable portion? Last time I was here to watch the Chiefs game I ordered the Rueben Tots expecting a fun pile of classic Rueben sandwich components on top of hot crispy greasy tots instead what I received was a small mound of stringy corned beef and a slice of melted Swiss cheese and a dismal drizzle of thousand island. I had to ask for more sauce on the side because it just wasn't enough for the amount of tots. If these would have been between $10-$12 maybe I would have let it slide and this review would have been different but for $15 I just wasn't too happy. Also, another note the menu online has absolutely no descriptions whatsoever so, if you're trying to place a pickup order good luck knowing what you're actually ordering. This could be an easy fix. The service is okay but sometimes it feels like you have to chase down the wait staff or just walk up to the bar to get another drink or ask for a menu. I'm sure happy hour is fine here but I haven't been for years so, I'm not sure if the prices have gone up for that too. Will I be back? Well yes but, I'll definitely order something different from the menu then the last time around. Maybe 4 sliders for $15 is a better way to go? Because I've also gotten the Rueben sandwich here before for $15 and I felt like it was sparse and the meat was lacking. I do believe they have a pretty good burger deal on Monday unless that has changed.

So excited that the Happy Hour appetizer choices come in full portion. Be warned that you need to…read morebring your appetite with you!! The food came out piping hot and with the right amount of flavor. The chicken fingers had a great flavor, which complimented well with the honey Dijon mustard. The cheese curds were super cheesy and as long as you ate them right away as with any cheese curds it didn't stiffen up! Per my friend the queso was creamy, her reaction to the full portion coming out was priceless but I couldn't capture that here lol. It came with both tortilla chips and soft flour tortillas. I'd probably leave off the soft flour tortillas because those don't really fit with the idea of dipping into the queso. Our server was A+, very attentive, he kept up pretty well with our table and the others during I'm sure the busiest time with Happy Hour. Kept our water coming, was mindful that Happy Hour would soon be ending and came back by to grab any additional orders which I loved. The ambiance was happy hourish. We were downtown for the New Edition concert. So the crowd was expected but not to loud and rowdy. We were able to walk right in when we arrived due to the time we chose, but noticed the wait forming as we left. We'll definitely be back !! Loved this happy hour.

It was a little confusing at first getting everything set up and figuring out the controls, but once we got into it, it was a blast. The setup upstairs is really cool--it's somewhat separated, which helps you stay immersed, but there are still other arcade games up there so if you're waiting for your turn, you're not just standing around. One thing I really appreciated was the drink selection. I don't drink alcohol, and they had a TON of mocktail options, which honestly made the experience way better for me. It's not something every place puts effort into, so that stood out. The food was also surprisingly good, with plenty of options to choose from. Downstairs has more of a full bar vibe with additional games and more space to sit and eat (no VR down there), so it's nice to have both environments depending on what you're in the mood for. Overall, it's a great spot for groups, especially for birthdays or a night out where you want something a little different.
