Volare is an artisan bakery at 45 Gallagher Drive in Melville, Hamilton. It began in 2009 with a vintage oven and a van, and the website says the business now bakes daily, sells to cafes, restaurants and food stores across the North Island, and runs five shops in the Waikato. The bread is baked in small batches with no additives or preservatives. The website describes the bakery as award winning.
The sourdough loaves include Olive & Thyme and Cumin, Onion & Turmeric, both $9.50, and a San Francisco sourdough at $9.00, all as at 2026. The Pain Au Levain is made with spray-free New Zealand flour and is a favourite with hospitality customers. Pastries are also sold. Orders can be placed online for home delivery or store pickup, with same-day delivery across Auckland, the Bay of Plenty and the Waikato, and free delivery on orders of $60 or more. One customer says they now order their bread from Volare, and praises the same-day delivery and service. The website also offers catering and wholesale accounts.
