  • The first time I ever visited Toronto, my interest in craft beer was just beginning to take hold. I did some asking around and heard that Volo was one of the places you just had to go if you wanted a bar that was positively mad about beer variety, with a great selection of beer from the USA, Canada and Europe. Having since moved to the city and ending up living only a few blocks from Volo, I can happily relate that this is absolutely accurate. The bottled beer list is broad and well-organized with something for everyone from West Coast hop lovers to Belgian enthusiasts. If you don't know where to start, the servers will be happy to give you some pointers. The taps offer even more variety on top of the bottled menu, and are often priced a bit better than some of the rarefied bottled items (especially on Mondays, when a pint off the tap list will run you $5.) The true mark of a bar that wants to do right about beer, though, is Volo's commitment to local craft brewers. Ontario and Quebec-sourced small-batch and cask beers dominate the rotating tap list. Events like Cask Days, the IPA Challenge and the recently launched House Ales in-house brewing project carry the idea even further with their focus on local and locally collaborative beers of many styles. They do a good job with their food menu, which features a number of traditional Italian items like tarrali (crisp pretzels,) arancini (rice balls,) cured meats, olives and a variety of pasta dishes. The "boards" and antipasti are a nice option if you're not feeling like a full meal but want something to nibble on with your drinks. There are also crisp-crusted pizzas (the Massino is my favourite), burgers (the Volo Burger is worth the extra dollar!) and a flipping good tuna melt to be found on the menu (ask for the hot peppers.) Though the space can get a bit cramped (especially in the wintertime when the patio is closed), it's got a nice ambiance (with brewery memorabilia hung all around) and the music isn't too loud but fits the social vibe of the place. Good to hang out with friends, perhaps not so good for an intimate dinner. Volo is easily right at the top of the list for beer bars in Toronto along with Smokeless Joe's and the more upscale Beer Bistro. Highly recommended.
