I really like Volo. First reason is definitely the beer. They have the best selection of cask beers I have seen. There is always a new beer to try, and the staff always makes good recommendations based on what I like, so everything I try is good! I have been once for the Cask Days event and really enjoyed trying the different beers, talking to the staff about their origins, and the welcoming spirit. It almost felt like an outdoor festival in the small cozy space.
Second reason is the cozy atmosphere. In the winter, this is a nice warm spot to while away the hours, and in the summer, the patio is relaxed and comfortable.
Last but not least is the food. I have tried the pizzas, cheese plates and the cheese and meat plates. All were well presented, fresh and good accompaniments for the beer.
Bar Volo is a unique little gem in Toronto. Now that the warm weather is coming/here, let's go have drinks on the patio!
