Step inside this exotic CBD bar spot for a post-work yak, or to just delight in the Middle Eastern- and West Asian-inspired decor.
Yak Bar and Food derives its name from its interior decoration, which fuses Middle Eastern and West Asian styles. While in India the cow is sacred, this bar seems to revere throw cushions, lanterns and ornate wrought-iron designs. Dampened downlights and sunburnt-orange bar lamps exude a glowing aura, while richly-patterned fabrics and intricate tiling is reminiscent of oriental harems. But you never lose sight of Melbourne at Yak, thanks to the series of windows that frame the winking lights of Flinders Lane and Russell Street. This is definitely a place to catch up with friends or family for a yak or a yarn, with the bar and restaurant spaces cleverly divided into various nooks designed for chatting. Similarly, the music provides a smooth background hum, allowing conversation to take centre stage. There is a choice of plush couches, as well as daytime alfresco cafe seating and indoor dining areas. So whether you're after a quiet post-work glass of chilled imported Asahi beer - perhaps with some tapas - or hankering for some exotic flavours, Yak is a great place to slink into.
