Book NowAbout Varsity Waterford
Varsity Waterford delivers American pub staples alongside wall-to-wall sports screens, dedicated arcade cabinets, and an airy open-air deck. Expect a lively college buzz steps from Curtin University, where locals drop in for pints of Single Fin, golden chips, and towering smash burgers. When the central room heats up with race car simulator tournaments and match-day noise, regulars slip upstairs to the breezy balcony for conversation over buffalo wings. For something offbeat, keep an eye out for the kitchen's rotating Burger of the Month, featuring adventurous builds ranging from breakfast cereal crunches to crocodile.
- Arcade Games & Simulators: Pair match broadcasts across wall screens with interactive arcade machines, pool tables, and a racing car simulator.
- Upstairs Balcony Deck: The elevated outdoor balcony offers a quieter vantage point and open seating away from the main floor buzz.
- Rotating Burger of the Month: A monthly kitchen special experiments with playful toppings, from cereal crunches to crocodile patties.
