Varsity Club Restaurant & Bar is an old-pub favorite located in the heart of the Ohio State University campus. The atmosphere is lively and full of energy, making it the perfect place to watch the Buckeyes play. The menu offers a variety of classic pub fare, including burgers, sandwiches, wings, and salads. They also have a great selection of beers on tap, including many local brews. One of the highlights of Varsity Club is the outdoor patio, which offers a great view of campus and is a popular spot on game days. Inside, there are plenty of TVs to catch all the action, and the staff is friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a fun spot to grab a drink and watch the game, Varsity Club is definitely worth checking out.

This is a cool little college bar to see while you are visiting OSU. It has some character and I'm sure a lot of local followers. The food was amazing! Pizza was cooked perfect and cheesy with a nice crunch of the dough. Great atmosphere with the NFL Sunday games going to include Cinci vs Cleveland rivalry. Could have had the sound on for the big game but still a great place. Service was good even with several kid parties in the dining room. Could have used another staff member or two but our server did a great job keeping up with us.

My son goes to Ohio State and suggested that we go to the varsity club for lunch. This place was the bomb. My kind ♥️ of place. Great atmosphere from the minute we pulled up. I took my sons photo standing next to the statue of Woody Hayes. When we entered the staff greeted us right away and seated us. Very friendly. The service was outstanding. Food was excellent. If u are ever in columbus you have to check this place out. After exiting, you get a full view of the Ohio State football stadium. See all of you there.

This is a pleasant sports bar. Visited on a Tuesday evening. Draft beer and appetizers were surprisingly cheap during happy hour. Wings (spicy garlic) were cooked to perfection and sauce was an excellent balance of flavor and heat. Staff was accommodating but not quite 5-star (had to ask for napkins after wings arrived). I would definitely visit here again.
