Easing into August with an extra layer or two. We are closed today, but we'll be open tomorrow through Sunday.

Our food trucks for the week:

Fri 7/8 Artesanos NZ | Latin Street Food with Latin American street food
Sat 8/8 Empanation - Sebastian Araneda-Buzzetti with authentic Chilean empanadas and more
When we are not hosting a local independent food truck, we have our little pub menu featuring hot chips/onion rings/poppers/flatbreads. I mean, who doesn't love hot chips, but we are hard at work at a more substantial menu here at Volstead to go with our ever-changing draft list.

Plenty of Hazy Sir Sauvin cans for pick up and mucho empty riggers waiting to be filled.

This Saturday, 25/7, we welcome back Empanation - Sebastian Araneda-Buzzetti to Volstead. So excited to feature authentic Chilean empanadas and more. The beef empanada might pair quite nicely with The Sunk'n Norwegian Hazy from Concept Brewing fresh on tap 🤔

Ahhh, yes, the Hazy Sir Sauvin is back in cans at the brewery this week. A true show case of the Nelson Sauvin hop, with the usual crushed gooseberry and sauvignon blanc characteristics we all crave and love.

So, as you can see, even with a change of ownership about a month ago, we are grinding out some great Volstead classics.

Speaking of change, we are modifying our hours of operations while working on a few projects in the bar area. For the next few weeks, we will be closed on both Mondays and Tuesdays. We'll keep you posted in the coming weeks of other changes to our hours.
