Yaks What-a-Burger

YAKS Café started by doing what we love. Our love for the arts, our love for the city, and our love for the coffee is contagious. In the early 2000’s,we started from an artistic and welcoming environment, with fresh food and coffee, the establishment has now made its mark among Northern California's premier dining destinations. We started in Redding with one shop, grew into five locations there, then headed up to Mt. Shasta, since then opening our current location in Dunsmuir, which has now evolved into one of the most highly recommended restaurants in the region.
