L'Hamburgheria

Volterra


Its blindingly white, ultra-utilitarian interior is miles away from the trattorias found elsewhere in Volterra, but this fast-food joint has one major thing in common with those more traditional eateries: an uncompromising commitment to quality local produce. It serves beef, pork, chicken and veggie burgers or piadine (flatbreads), fries, craft beer and local wine.
