Review from Yvonne B.

If you're looking for a local sports bar, this is the place to go for playoff games.
I've gone here for Warriors, Giants and Niners games and the comrauderie here is amazing. From when the Giants won the World Series to the Niners beating the Saints, you will no doubt be high fiving random strangers and even the bartenders. With that in mind, you must get to the bar probably a good hour and a half before the actual game starts if you want a good seat to watch the game. Would recommend even finding bar seating so that you don't have to wait for the waitress during those times it is so extremely packed full of patrons wanting to quench their thirst while screaming at the top of their lungs at all the screens.
There is definitely a lot of tvs for you to not miss any part of the game. If you did miss something, it's your own fault for looking away. The staff here is great. Whether you're sitting at the bar or at the tables provided, you don't go too long with out a drink. With the exception of busy times, so like I said above sit at the bar if you don't want to wait too long.
There isn't food here but you can bring any outside food that you want. So you can't go wrong with a slice a pizza down the street, shwarma across the street or even for the brave, Naan n Curry down the way also.
Overall would definitely recommend for people that want to enjoy the game at a local bar with fans that are as emotionally attached to the game as you are. -

My favorite local pub to come to. Very good location and easy to find. Plenty of street parking. They have a great selection of draft and bottle beers. If you are hungry they are always open to if you pick up something and bring the food back in the pub and eat. They have plenty of tv's located throughout the inside.
The atmosphere is vintage and has a home feeling to it. Plenty of seating at the bar and in the dining area. The noise level is well balanced because you can have a conversation with your friends without having to raise your voice nor worry about other people listening.
Cash only but there is an atm located inside. Wells Fargo and Bank of America atms are located across the street. -

Been here once and another time for the NFC divisional playoff game for niners vs saints. Crowd was awesome and juiced!
Beers are pretty cheap and atmosphere is chill. They have a pretty big bar area and lots of tables for people to sit. PLENTY of TV's but too bad they aren't bigger than they are right now. Parking sucks, but you can get lucky by parking at GGP for 3hour zone.
Drinks are good and cheap here, cant complain! big ups to the bartenders! -

The girls and I went everywhere to find a "crackin" place to chill and catchup. Yeah it was a weeknight but it was "Thirsty Thursday"! After going to probably almost a dozen places we settled here and we should have settled here in the first place.
I ordered a white gummy bear which is basically:
1/2 ounce Raspberry Vodka
1/2 ounce Peach Schnapps
1 ounce Sweet & Sour Mix
1 splash Lemon Lime Soda
I actually didn't really know how to make it before so I couldn't really tell the bartender how to do it but he wanted to wing it and put Vanilla Smirnoff and Sprite together? It wasn't exactly right but it was OK. After he saw the weird look on my face, he told me it was on the house. Sweeeet!
People are so nice here and there were plenty of seats available. There are 3 dart boards with people looking super serious and concentrated when they play and even keeping score (I'd probably just randomly throw and have no idea what I'm doing).
Will be back! -

I've been coming to Yancy's since I was legally allowed to enter through their door. I love that they periodically still card me!
Yancy's is nothing fancy or trendy, but it's the place my friends and I go to for a laid back, casual, fun time. The pours are generous and the drinks are very reasonably priced. Popcorn is free and patrons are allowed to bring in their own food (notice all the pizza boxes stacked up near the door). TV's are every where showing the latest sporting events and dart boards are available in the back. The staff there is friendly and orders are taken in a reasonable amount of time. Tables and chairs are abundant. On some occasions, the designated driver's order was on the house. Does it get any better than this?
The crowd is mixed - mostly students from UCSF and folks in their 20's and 30's during the prime weekend hours, but I've seen a good mix of folks from all walks of life and ages on my visits. This is a place to hang out with your friends and everyone is casually dressed. No attitudes or snottiness to be found here. The folks I've met have all been friendly and nice. Halloween here is a bit of a hoot. -

Nothing really that special about Yancy's. It's a very spacious bar with plenty of room for bigger groups. There are plenty of TV's that are mostly playing games of whatever season it's at. There's also 3 dart boards in the back. The saloon isn't anything fancy, but it seats enough people and a pretty chill place to kickback with some friends.
What I like about Yancys is that they let you bring in food from other places which is great when you have the munchies late at night. They also provide popcorn (no other food there). Good selection of beers, ones you would normally find at bars. I generally grab a sierra nevada.
Downside is cash ONLY. Beers run for $5 a piece. Service is good, servers are always really nice and accommodating. -

I've been to a couple pubs in SF and I thought this place would fit the same category: dark, cold, filled with old white men that had beer bellies. However, I was pretty surprised this place had quite a few young adults my age.
I really like the environment in Yancy's Saloon. There were a lot of seating areas that made it nice to sit back and chit chat with good company. They also had a lot of T.V.s set up at the bar and a big screen in the back with more seating areas fit for larger parties. I also like the fact that they set up 3 dart boards at the back. Even though half the time my darts hit everywhere but the board, it was still pretty fun to play against friends. Definitely a game of luck instead of skill.
Anyway, the only thing I didn't enjoy was my candy cane martini. I should have expected the drink to taste no where near like the sweet midori sour a friend ordered, but I like trying drinks with interesting names. Overall, it was a good night! I was already in a good mood because the Lakers won against the Knicks, and the martini made my mood even better by giving me a good buzz. -

Review from Stephy L.
Well Hello Yancy's! It's a funny thing how we didn't meet each other earlier! I was introduced to this wonderful spot by a couple of my great friends, and now i am absolutely in love!
What does Yancy's have to offer? First off...
* Location is wonderful. Located on Irving at 9th Ave I believe. Parking is never a problem. Everytime we come here, we find parking right away.
* Walk in and suit yourself. Feel free to find a table or seats at the bar. You're on your own here. Make yourself comfortable like home!
* Very soon, a host will come and greet you, check IDs, and take your order. The girls are friendly and helpful.
* Sip on your drinks while you enjoy complimentary popcorn! Oh the popcorn is much needed!
Other things you should know..
- They have flat screen TVs all around!
- Dart room with 3 dart boards and tables are towards the back!
- Draft beers are all $5! My snakebite (Guinness and cider was also $5)
- you get your order, you pay right away at the table. Whats better than NOT having to get out of your seat and to wait in line and pay for your drink at the bar?!
- Shots are $5-8 ( according to the boyfriend) Depends on what you get!
- Cocktails are delicious and strong here. Not watered down crap.
Overall, Yancy's is one of those places where you will go and enjoy a drink..or a few and not need to feel stuffed and cramped. Definitely a place for just you and your boyfriend, or with a group of friends looking for a chill night out.Listed in: Drink Up!

I've been hearing the name Yancy's for awhile, and I always thought it was a person's house! My bad!
It definitely wasn't what I was expecting, the atmosphere was pretty cool, definitely not your typical dark dingy bar with moppable floors. It was very homey and comfy with the couches, and the lights made me think of old homes in detective novels! It's loud and busy, but not so loud that you can't have a real conversation with the people around you.
There's also darts in the back! -

Ah Yancy's.
#1) Lots of space.
#2) Lots of TVs.
#3) Lets you bring in food from other places.
#4) $5-6 for beers
#5) 3 Darts boards in the back, be sure to check in your ID for the darts though.
I've had a lot of memories of this place, and I have to say it is a great place for reunions and kickbacks with several people. You can come in and out and it's really lax. I remember going here for the Giants vs Phillies prior to the 2010 world series and this place was packed and crackin'!! Everyone had good vibes and I'm very pleased to have this bar in the northern sunset section.
One thing that may be a bit difficult is the parking situation. You may have to park a bit or circle around a bit to find a spot. Otherwise, it's a great place. Pasqual's is nextdoor, so usually if a friend buys a huge round of beers, and you can tell everyones hitting that post buzz level... If you drop $30 for a pizza everyone will admire you.. haha! I definitely would come back here!!
The bathrooms are definitely not the cleanest in the world, but you have to expect that when you have people who can't handle their alcohol in there everyday.
Enjoy!

They pour a mean cranberry juice. I'm worthless now that I don't drink anymore. I won't dance on the table tops. I won't slip and fall on my way to the bathroom. I won't smear my makeup all over your nice shirt. I didn't do that when I did drink, but now, the chances of seeing the above mentioned things are scant. But I'll always be the designated driver.
Yancy's has a terrific front room. It's awkwardly small with a ridiculously large flat screen TV. Right in front of the ridiculous TV are 4 bar stools. If you sit at those seats and try to watch the TV, your neck will never straighten and your eyes will be perpetually crossed. But a little farther away are two intimate tables and a separate bar-height table. For bootleggers? Back when prohibition was cool? Maybe for card games? What is the purpose of that slim, bar height table that was packed to the underarms with Bulgarians.
I was there on Sunday and I don't think they were really Bulgarians. They might have been Russian. In college, there was a sizable Bulgarian population sent over by the Bulgarian government to learn our countries top nuclear secrets and chemical engineering. Sitting next to this group on Sunday reminded me of college. Except that these guys did not smell. Nor were they listening to polka.
It was warm inside. There were some drunk people cheering on Tebow. Tom Brady is not aging well. Green Bay suffered their first defeat. We brought pizza over from Pasquales and it was delicious. I guess I review "bar atmosphere" now. I look over the interior design with my shrewd eye. Or is it my shrew eye? I don't imagine shrews have very good eyesight.
I like watching cable. But I don't have cable at home. So I go to places that have cable. And in exchange, I order a sad, lonely cranberry juice which I can nurse for 4 hours. Yancy's did not give me the hairy eyeball for being such a square. Thumbs up.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Oh, good ol' Yancys:) I live right around the corner and this is definitely my favorite bar in the inner sunset. I don't think I have ever been into a bar as cozy as this one. It is so warm and inviting. It's very big and spacious with dim lighting. The bartenders are very nice and they always remember you. I usually spend every Sunday here watching football. They have the best drink specials on sundays btw for football season. There is T.V.s all over the bar so you never miss a second of the game.
I love coming to Yancys with a big group of friends, order a pizza from Milanos and just kick back and spend hours there.
The music here is really fun too. Its the only place where you can be listening to Journey at one moment and the very next song will be Dr dre or ice cube. I'm pretty sure I went there last night and the place broke into a sing along of Santeria. Loved it! -

This place is pretty huge! Has plenty of flat screens, there are dart boards in the back, and a jukebox. The bartenders are really friendly and nice. Typical neighborhood bar that has a really laid back atmosphere. Yancy's is a good place to meet up with friends for a drink and to have chill night.

i used to live near here and whenever my friend wanted to go out but didn't want to venture out of the sunset we'd end up here or i'll get dragged out to join the others..
i'm not a bar person at all, especially a laid back bar person.. i like to get dressed up when i go out.. but i actually don't mind going here..maybe bc they have darts, jukebox, and other activities you could enjoy than your typical bar..after a night out at yancy's we'll end up grabbing a bite at irving pizza on the way home.. oh yeah, that reminds me, you could bring in food here, i've seen people bring in pizza boxes before..
yancy's, congrats on being the only chill bar i like so far.. a difficult feat! -

An ode to Yancy's:
A home away from home,
but better because you have NFL Sunday Package.
Sofas
Cheap drinks
and I can even bring in pizza from Arizmendi.
Yancy's, you are the neighborhood bar
where dreams
come true.
Thank you.
I love this place because I don't have to look cute to come here. I can bring homework to do during half time. I can watch all the games, and the TVs are even labeled so I know exactly where to sit during the first game so that I'm in prime position if my game is the afternoon game. I love that.
Also, you won't like this place if you're looking for crazy fancy delicious beers. Pretty much just Blue Moon, Coors Lite, and other crap like that. But, the price is right and the people are chill. Ultra awesome neighborhood dive bar.
PS - you might feel a little dirty after sitting on the couches, but I just consider that bonus points. -

Nice sports bar with lots of tvs and AWESOME Snakebites! Lots of seating areas and you can play darts here! I like this spot for a quick night cap or to have a little chat session with friends. I could get loud on weekends and game days with college kids but its a great neighborhood hangout. And Alan and Doug are cool bartenders!!!

I really like Yancy's. This is a neighborhood bar located in the inner sunset. I came here to watch a couple Giants game and the place is always super packed. You could bring in pizza from next door and the waitresses come around and take orders so you don't have to make a trip to the bar. They have a good amount of beers on tap and pretty decent priced shots. I don't quite remember, but if I was willing to pay for 2 or 3 rounds it must have not been that bad. haha. Yancy's is super laid back, a pretty mixed crowd, and a lot tables and chairs every where. I will probably find myself wandering into this place once Giants season starts up next year! Go Giants! :)
Oh yeah, CA$H Only. -

Don't order a Bloody Mary - their bartenders don't know how to make a good one. In fact, don't order any mixed drinks. Stick to beer.
Not a terribly inexpensive place given how dive-y it seems, and it's cash only, but there are giant flat screen TVs that show every single football game known to mankind on Sundays, so it gets three stars just for that.
Sundays obviously gets very crowded and the patrons don't leave until all the games are done so it's hard to find a spot if you don't get there early enough. It's pretty roomy, though, and the atmosphere is mellow, despite the fact that it's filled with football-loving dudes.
Oh, and it's a total sausage fest, but the guys are too wrapped up in football and various bromances to be hitting on you. -

Oh Yancy's..... I have enjoyed myself sitting at your bar or one of your tables many times throughout the last year and a half since I found you. You have always offered friendly service, good popcorn, and of course yummy beer. Great for groups or perhaps just you and your book Yancy's is a bar that is always entertaining and interesting. So all I have to say is.... Thank you Yancy's. Thank you for being a solid stand up bar.

What everyone says is true. It a cool, laid back bar. And they have 3 dart boards! That is kinda awesome. And popcorn which is also cool.
This place is huge! Its like a warm, cosy, nicer than dive bar. More places should be like this. Casual.
I feel like this is the perfect place to come if you are torn between staying home but want to be out. Its the perfect in-between. -

Yay for Yancy's!
-It's really warm and homey inside.
-Great place to watch games! Especially if you're too cheap to get Comcast ie me
-FREE CRACK-INFUSED POPCORN! Maybe they don't really use crack, but it seems like it. I could eat bowls of the stuff.
-Decent prices and friendly staff who will keep re-filling your popcorn bowl!
-Darts in the back!
Really, what more could you want in a local bar?! -

So this place only accepts cash, yet they don't have any great drink/ beer specials?.....I thought that when you accept cash, your business saves money by not being charged by banks for credit/debit transactions...so give some of that back to the customer. Try lowering your prices on beer on some nights..
Also the bartenders are a little rude for no apparent reason...If you are tired of being a bartender than do yourselves a favor and quit.
I only like this place because it is big, fits a lot of people, and it is a great place to watch Giants games. -

It's the carpet that really ties this place together. Well, the carpet* and the Tiffany lampshades, also the old Collier's covers from like 1917 and all those early-19th century American landscapes, with their early morning, yellow annunciation sunlight as well as the occasional nude and zaftig bather...all this stuff really makes Yancy's a place to consider returning to, because otherwise it's just a collegiate dive bar with far too many tv screens** and music that's reliably a pinch or two too high. Beer selection is okay, as far as I can tell; no word on the whiskey. Bartenders--almost always dudes--have always been adequately nice. But's a college bar, make no mistake.
*We're talking late-70's, non-shag, wine-colored, almost toile-motifed--real semi-classy shit here. Like you could totally read 'Don Quixote' in between innings. Or 'Blindness,' as the case may have been with your reviewer tonight.
**TV screens for which, admittedly, I am thankful every time I skulk in there hoping to see the night's Red Sox game. -

CASH ONLY! FULL BAR! Woohoo?
If you show up without cash, like boy toy did this past weekend, then you better:
A) Hope for an awesome girlfriend (moi) who carries cash on her all the time
or
B) Walk across the street to the Wells Fargo ATM to get yourself some greenbacks.
We swung by here for the first time to grab some drinks w/ our buddies. Parking is meter on the street - found one near the front after circling the block once.
Friendly waitress who recommended some different mixed whiskey drinks. She even brought us some complimentary popcorn as it got made.
Got an old Cheers bar feel to it with darker wood interior - comfy wood chairs - several tables to sit around & chat w/ old friends about weddings coming up, new jobs, gossip about mutual friends, etc.
Noise level was bearable w/ dart board games in the back. No shouting required during the exchange of gossip. TVs here & there on the walls.
Cash register behind the bar is old school - literally with those circular buttons you punch downwards on individual levers (like old school typewriters) - should've taken a pix of it...wanted to take it home actually but it's so heavy, anyone trying to rob them would probably pull a muscle.
Would definitely come back here if we're ever in the neighborhood again. -

Yancy's is a fun place to watch a game and hang out with your friends. It's not dark and depressing during the day...I hate dark bars when I'm trying to watch a sports game (except the old Brennan's in Berkeley, RIP). I have a few friends that like this place and still hang around the Sunset/Richmond..
I don't go there very often, but my experiences have always been good. They've never complained when I brought in food from Gordo's, so Burritos+booze is a definite possibility. -

if you're looking for a casual spot with no frills, no trendy pretty-ppl vibe, no overpriced drinks (aha! sold ya there) - this is the spot. love this place. it's like drinking in someone's huge ass living room.
there are lots of tv's if you wanna catch a game. or just get together with friends in a comfy environment. just come as you are.
other pros: they let you bring food in, it's good for large groups AND the jukebox is reasonably priced. free popcorn to boot. -

I can bring in my own pizza from Pasquale's? That itself deserved some well earned stars! Drink prices are average, ranging about $6 for a standard mixed drink and no more than that for a beer. It's a comfortable local bar with a diverse crowd. There are flat screens lining the walls, an area to play darts, a couple of old school arcade games like pacman, and tables everywhere. I always heard they provide free popcorn but i didn't get any :(

Place is pretty spacious and drinks are not too expensive. Love how they have 3 dart boards that you can play on. My friends and I played for awhile. You just have to ask for the darts and give them ID to borrow them. There's pen and paper provided to keep score against your friends. They give free popcorn here too. My friends and I were bar hopping and we came here earlier in the night and came back because the other bars were lame. Very fun environment to chill with friends :)

Great beer selection. I am a huge fan of good beers on tap for an affordable price. I usually get something different every time I'm there.
Oh, and not a fan of beer? They have Strongbow Cider on tap. It's basically an alcoholic Martinelli's cider, that sparkling apple cider you used to have with Thanksgiving dinner when you were underaged. It's cold, crisp, and full of that good appley goodness. It's a great summer drink. -

Yancy's always comes to mind when I'm thinking of a large enough place to accommodate a bigger group. It's always a very relaxed diverse atmosphere. The only bad thing is that it's CASH only. Shots are poured relatively a standard size, drinks are a bit on the lighter side, and service is great. They waitress is always attentive when ordering from tables, in fact they ask YOU if you want anything more to drink, which is usually a yes!
They have TVs all over the bar showing different sport games going on and a dart's room for entertainment. For me, I use this spot to kick back with my friends and just enjoy each others company. It definitely provides us that opportunity, and we always have a good time. The bar is a bit more old school, if you're looking for one of those new hyped up modernized bars with house/hip hop music.. this is not the place. However, if you just looking to hangout on tables or a couch, a spacey area, grab a couple drinks and watch the game, this is a place to checkout. -

I'm not a huge fan of sports bars, but this place is definitely one I can frequent. It's really laid back and casual, which I like. The crowd is generally really friendly and easygoing. I have yet to go on a day when there are a bunch of rowdy assholes, spilling their drinks and trying to pick a fight with anyone who comes in contact with them (thank god). Yancy's is pretty spacious with a ton of seating. I love how they have tables that can accommodate to large groups. It's always a good thing when you can seat everyone together.. rather than having to split the group.
The bartenders are really friendly and attentive. They have darts, old school arcade games and a ton of TVs. I've heard about the whole popcorn deal but I haven't had any myself yet. The noise level is tolerable so you can have a convo without having to scream into someones ear. Overall, an awesome place to chill with friends. -

I came here again last night and this place has grown on me. It's a pretty chill place for a larger group of friends to go and hang out. Since we usually go out to clubs and lounges, the beverage prices here are much more attractive as well. However, it's still disappointing how weak the drinks are... I'd advise sticking to $5 draft beers and $5-$7 shots. Also, go early and grab tables! This place gets packed after 11.

Pros: laid-black vibe, plenty of seating, fully stocked bar, friendly/helpful bartender who recommended drinks, and darts.
Did you know they hold your driver's license when you get darts? ...maybe in case you decide to poke someone's eye out using the 3 darts they give, they'll hunt you down..of if you steal their darts? It's the perfect place for people to chill..don't expect anyone dancing.
Cons: cash only, no complimentary birthday shot or anything!..even though my friend bought drinks for the four of us ($26 +tip) and mentioned it was my birthday. bartender pretty much ignored the fact it was my birthday..LAME. -

Used to kick it here at night. Good place to drink as long as it doesn't get too crowded. Been coming here to watch the Giants games since they have a huge TV in the back and have the sound on. Good thing about this place is they let you bring food in so you can grab a pizza from outside and eat it there.
Sucks thats its cash only since we always end up drinking more than anticipated....resulting in us having to walk to another bar that accepts CC. -

Fun bar. The crowd is young for me, but a good bar nevertheless.
Great bartenders and fair prices.
Lots of people on many nights and free darts. If you don't like an Irish Bar you probably won't like Yancy's.
If you are 21 to 27 then this is probably a must see if you like fun casual bars.
