About the Restaurant

Bar Volo was one of Toronto's first craft beer bars and has made a name for itself among the cityโ€™s ale aficionados. Opened in 1985, this bar was once an Italian restaurant. After relocating and opening a sister location, this bar is considered a stalwart amongst Torontoโ€™s beer-loving community.

Located at Yonge and Wellesly, Bar Volo emulates a true southern Italian snack bar as well as being a great spot to learn about some of Canadaโ€™s more unique craft beers and here, you pay as you go. On the bar there is a selection of snacks to choose from, and on the board there is a variety of beers on tap that range from barrel-aged sours to imperial stouts. The food here is in typical tapas fashion. With olives and other antipasti, as well as hand-pulled mozzarella with pesto, spices nuts and charcuterie, you really canโ€™t go wrong with these curated beer snacks.
