On a quiet day during our one-week stay in Radda we decided on a whim to go visit the little village of Volpaia, which we could see from the farmhouse we were renting. After a walk through the lovely village we couldn't resist joining the handful of locals sitting on the terrasse of this bar. It was mid afternoon so... More

We normally stay very close to this restaurant at La Locanda with the really friendly couple Guido and Martina. The restaurant is the closest to La Locanda but I would not hesitate to drive twenty mile to eat here. What makes this place so special is the owner she is without doubt full of life and a great and funny... More

We found the town of Volpaia almost by chance when visiting Radda in Chianti, and enjoyed walking around the town. By chance we saw a sign that said Tuscan food at Bar Ucci, and liked the menu and looks of the place, so we had lunch (our main meal of the day) there. The food was delicious, and the woman... More

We had been planning on eating at the Bottega di Volpaia but hours in Italy are such that it was closed in the afternoon but the Bar Ucci, riight across from the Bottega, was open and it was very good. A very relaxed atmosphere and yet historical with pictures of the managers as children in Post Card fashion given to... More

If you are looking for a quick bite and good coffee on your way through Volpaia then this is perfect. It's got loads of character and the owner Paola very friendly

The Pasta and ravioli are home made and very delicious! The service is great and the nanu is not very expensive, about 6 euro for pasta..

Great wine. Great food. Relaxing and unhurried! It has a real family feel and the owners very welcoming. The drive there is beautiful and there is plenty of free parking near by. We found it by accident and just had to go back.

I go to Volpaia every time I'm in Radda visiting. I would never pass up the chance to go sit outside at Bar Ucci and eat Paola's insalada di farro. This is the perfect Tuscan setting... high in the hills, wonderful food & people & wine... with perfect views. I can't wait to return in September!
