  Came here for their beer specials.  I was presently surprise by how cheap the beer was and great service!! We had the stuffed mushroom appetizer and it was delicious, it came out sizzling hot on a cast iron pan and it hit the spot as the perfect bar food!

  Drinks are average priced, maybe a little more.  Hit up the happy hour for sure to save a bit.  The servers were all nice and dress to the style of the bar, hooded sweaters and jeans.  This is the place the locals definitely meet with their buddies to watch their teams on any of the 6 or so flatscreens.  Food service was a little slow but patrons here are not in any rush. Good for groups. Those with peanut allergies be ware!

  I generally like this place, but we just experienced a pretty bad night out at The Screamin Yak.
  
  Nachos were soggy and very mediocre. Our waitress asked our table of four if we wanted a complimentary long island ice tea, an extra that the bartender had made. Of course we said yes. As she brought it to our table, I asked her if it was free as it was "complimentary" and she said "no, it's $6." I said we wouldn't be paying for it and she flubbered away saying she'd cover it then.
  
  We love this bar, but because of this will seriously be reconsidering coming to this bar in the future.

  I've been told that the Yak has great burgers so I found myself in the area, around lunch time, and hungry.  So it was time to find out for myself.
  
  The menu had some very interesting selections and the fresh sheet featured a number of specials with pulled pork including sliders and a p-p quesadilla with p-p and slaw on top that sounded very interesting. But I came on a mission looking for a burger. I settled on the Black Jack that is blackened, with sauteed shrooms and pepper jack. It was pretty good, but I would not say "great."  That could be because I like my blackened foods truly caked with seasoning and this was merely dusted.  But it tasted very good and the fries were outstanding.  Overall I was pleased.
  
  My son had Jack Daniels BBQ and included onion straws & bacon, and all I can say is he did not utter a word while he devoured that thing.
  
  If I could go 3.5 stars I would but this is YELP and there are rules.  I will be back and feel that it is worth the effort.  By the way, Jadyn who commented that it is dark - it's a bar.  And there are windows around three sides so not sure what the deal was there, and if someone told you to go there for dancing, you need a new friend.

  Dark little bar. Drinks are a little spendy, but they make them strong. Not a place for dancing.

  I vote this best place on the north side to watch pro football.  The yak has the football package and plenty of TV's to watch it on.  The food is better than average, especially the scrambled yak for breakfast & wings the rest of the day.  During the work week the specials are good, I try to usually make it in for Taco Tuesday.
  
  Service is particularily good, Danni is a serving goddess.
   
  My only complaint is how loud the place is.  Because all the surfaces are concrete, wood & metal, it echoes in here something awful and is really hard to carry on a conversation if it is even somewhat crowded.
