A few months ago, it was announced that this top rated bar in Toronto was force to close, because the building’s owner sold it to a condo developer. Although the last beer will be served there on October 1st, they will have a new place just a block east from where they are.

Wish it was in the U.S. where good beer is easier to find

That’s awesome. I ticked many of my greatest ticks in Volo. Without Volo, it’s hard to see how the Ontario craft beer scene would have developed so much as it has.

There’s a top rated place that you have not visited? This must be a historic first.

I had my first Pannepot Grand Reserva when I was 19 my first time at Bar Volo. A wonderful memory at a very, very cool bar. Glad it will live on!

I didn’t say don’t go there - I said in the limited time you have, that Barhop was a slightly better option
