| - Volo was completely packed when we went on a Tuesday night, and we had to wait around half an hour to be seated. The bar is intimate, and the tables and seating areas are very tightly packed into the room. Still, if you love craft beer, this is the place to go. While I'm not a huge fan, it was still nice to try new ales. I had the Great Lakes Crazy Canuck, and enjoyed it. My date had the Belgian Tripel and I preferred the taste of this. Beware- it's pretty common for them to run out of many of the beers on the menu. But the good news it, their menu is huge.
The servers are crazy busy, and we were expecting them to take our orders so we sat waiting for a while before approaching them, and discovering they had neglected to inform us we were to order at the bar. After waiting in line to be seated, we then had to wait in line once again at the bar to place orders. Unimpressed with the service- particularly the aussie/new zealand accents of the servers which neither my date or I could understand. The service was not at all friendly.
As for the food, it mainly consists of snacks. We ordered the chips, and they were unremarkable.
The great thing about this bar is that it is ideal for a date, and for conversation. It's cozy, intimate setting make it very conducive to long conversations. We were there till closing time, and didn't at all notice how quiet it got towards the end. The prices are very reasonable overall, but the long wait times and poor service mean this bar is unappealing to me.
