Much more than a bistro
AT VOLATERRA THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING TO DISCOVER
We created a space that we at first would have wanted to have in our city, a place that offers a creative and welcoming atmosphere, where people can share relaxed moments and get to know the real Tuscany.
Not only lunches and aperitifs, at Volaterra we host art exhibits, events and private parties, cultural and musical evenings. It is a modern environment, in the centre of an ancient city as Volterra, where past and present coexist.
The charm of the tradition is combined with the desire of discovery.
Taste the Tuscan flavour
TASTING AND SELLING OF LOCAL PRODUCTS
For us the ingredients are the most important things and come as first. Our shelfs are our business card, here you can discover products from our land that we carefully selected and by getting to know each producer.
Each product is served and told with passion by our staff, who will be happy to make you taste it and know it. The best Tuscan excellences are at your disposal: you can taste them at the table or you can take them home, your choice.
The journey to discover Tuscany starts from here, from our counter.
The art of taste, taste for art
SPACE FOR ARTISTS AND CULTURAL EVENTS
Not only flavours, but also colours.
The bistros have always been some of the favourite places for artists. What combines taste for food and taste for art is the enhancing of beauty: being able to grab and enhance the sensation of an instant, through a flavour, a poetry or a painting.
At Volaterra we host art exhibition, we organize meetings with the artists and we have fun by mixing culture, art, cooking and performances.
