Nestled in the centre of this charming Yorkshire town, Volare is more than just a restaurant – it’s an experience, a passport to sun-drenched Mediterranean shores, all without leaving Huddersfield. So, buckle up, dear reader, because we’re about to embark on a culinary journey, one pasta at a time!
What’s in a Name? Volare!
Let’s begin with the name –
Volare. For anyone who’s a fan of classic Italian music (or just enjoys singing loudly in the car), the word immediately evokes memories of the iconic song
Nel Blu Dipinto di Blu, famously performed by Domenico Modugno. Translated,
Volare means “to fly” – which, when you think about it, perfectly encapsulates the feeling you get when stepping into the warm, inviting atmosphere of this Huddersfield gem.
Rather than jetting off to Italy, why not let the flavours come to you? With every bite of pasta or sip of wine, Volare offers a taste of la dolce vita that will have you feeling like you’re lounging on a terrace in Rome, not on a busy street corner in West Yorkshire.
The Menu: A Love Letter to Italy
Walk into Volare and you’re immediately met with the scent of freshly baked bread, rich tomato sauce, and – of course – the unmistakable allure of melting cheese. The menu at Volare is a celebration of Italian culinary tradition, with a modern twist. From classic pasta dishes like spaghetti carbonara to gourmet pizzas topped with everything from pepperoni to rich truffle oil, there’s something to satisfy even the most discerning foodie.
But don’t be fooled – it’s not just about the pasta and pizza (though, let’s be honest, those alone are worth the visit). Volare also offers a range of tempting starters and mouth-watering desserts. If you’ve never experienced the joy of tiramisu paired with a rich espresso, well, let’s just say you’re in for a treat.
Oh, and we mustn’t forget the wine list. Whether you’re in the mood for a zesty Italian white or a bold, full-bodied red, Volare’s selection has you covered. The staff, friendly as ever, are always on hand to offer recommendations – because who doesn’t love a little wine advice with their meal?
The Atmosphere: Buona Tavola!
It’s not just the food that makes Volare in Huddersfield a standout. Step inside, and you’re immediately transported to a welcoming, cosy Italian trattoria. The rustic décor, warm lighting, and cheerful chatter from fellow diners create the perfect environment to sit back, relax, and enjoy your meal. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just indulging in a casual dinner with friends, Volare’s atmosphere will make you feel like part of the family.
And let’s not forget about the service – friendly, attentive, and as charming as a good Italian host should be. They’ll make sure you have everything you need while also offering a few witty remarks to ensure you’re grinning from ear to ear as you devour your meal.
