“We tried the famous Butterfly tea, and it exceeded our expectations, perfect blend of presentation and flavor.Caramel Macchiato was on the mark. One of the best ratio of coffee and caramel I ever had and combined with coffee boba was out of this world. Will definitely visit again with friends.“
“My son came in coughing up a storm and the shop owner offered him some water and gave me some great tips for his asthma. Then gave me the best ice-cream I have ever had in my life! Who would have guessed coffee and ice cream could go together. Such a cute shop. Very astheticly pleasing and delicious. 10/10 would recommend the Affagato!“
“Wonderful! I’ve been to Paris and this takes you right there in a very real way. This could totally be a real shop in Paris. Took my daughters for the first time after church for a fun outing - lovely. Got a sweet crepe and a lunch one. Both were unique and very filling. They have coffee, I didn’t realize they had all this! Great meeting spot like a Starbucks.On a side note- as a business owner myself, you really need to rethink all of the bathroom dispensers and holders - there are cleaner and more efficient items you can purchase. For example- use a foam soap dispenser that is plastic with an added drip tray, it will not rust or leak. The toilet paper holder also makes a person pull out twice as much- use one that attaches 2 single rolls side by side without a key. The trash can is crazy small (get a Costco one that is larger). Paper towels, get a keyed metal unit that takes the trifold towels. It’s cleaner and limits use. Currently the bathroom honestly felt like a dirty shell gas station.“
“Great snacks and boba, service is nice and quick. Love the music and new paintings :)(Pic is a spicy very berry)Vegetarian options: Only meat on the menu is dumplings, most things are also suitable for vegansParking: Strip mall gives easy parking optionsWheelchair accessibility: Counter is low“
“I recommend, really good. I ordered 8 glazed gluten free donuts today. Mimi (the owner) helped me. I told her I was allergic to gluten, and she said they have a dedicated fryer for all their gluten free donuts. And the glazed icing was gluten free and no contamination. She also said to tell her if you have a gluten allergy and she will be able to get you more (different) icings like cherry and maple, etc…. The donuts were really good, but expensive. I ordered 8 total donuts and it was $34.55. But whatever, inflation is here. I will go back!! The GF donuts were thinner and not as puffy as gluten donuts (that I remember from 20 years ago before I went gluten free) but it was a treat. I could have eaten all 8 but I restrained myself. I will be back, Mimi!Dietary restrictions: they have a dedicated fryer for all their gluten free donuts, and tell them you have an allergy and they will work with you on the icing flavors. I got 8 glazed today, they were yummy. I had to work hard not to eat all 8!“
“Incredible experience hands down!! I came in at 5:10AM to place an order for a dozen of their fancy cronuts & gourmet donuts. They asked me to return in an hour for pick up. Everything was perfect & I can honestly say after tasting the Bavarian Cronut I will never go back to a glazed again lol. Highly recommend stopping in for any of their delicious donuts & cronuts!!“
“We threw a surprise party for a friend of mine here and the employees were super patient with us, food was great and service was fast! Everyone’s favorite was the curly fries, they were hot and delicious. The boba tea was fantastic and the cups are reusable, you get a good amount for the price. They even offered the birthday girl free bubble waffles!“
“Family owned business and they are all amazing people. Have never raised their prices which is super respectable. Their coffee and smoothies are a lot higher quality than anything around. Customer service and transparency is like nothing else. Would highly recommend anyone goes here for their new coffee and smoothie shop!“
“This is perhaps the best coffee shop I’ve ever been to. I work nearby and I think I go here every day, despite my better judgement ? All of their pastries are made in-house and their drinks are great. It can get pretty cramped in busy times, but I always get it to-go so this is rarely an issue for me. Highly recommend if you’re in downtown McKinney and craving some caffeine.“
“I had a fantastic experience at this coffee shop! The atmosphere was cozy, and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee was irresistible. The baristas were friendly, and my expresso was expertly crafted. A welcoming environment for coffee enthusiasts. I'll be a regular “
“2 words. Apricot Latte. Sounds crazy, I know. But, they managed to perfect this in a way that keeps you coming back for more. Also, make sure to get the house milk. The place is spacious with ample opportunity for meeting a friend or getting your study on. The baristas are super sweet and have always had a positive demeanor whenever I've stopped by.“
“Come here to slow down and absorb the music memorabilia and the very detailed long menu! It's a riot, lots of humor and fun were put into the names of the drinks and food so take time to look and decide, the staff can help. They have the sweetest barista, Faith, and the others are great, too. Don't forget to find their tiny door, it's heavenly!“
“I've been to the Oceanside location and was so happy to have it here in TX now! They have gluten free options as well. The coffee wasn't my favorite but the doughnuts were really good, after several bites they do get a little sweet for my tasting.“
“Super Kind, Helpful and patient from our first time here!!! Much better pricing and extreme quality, a must try alternative to Starbucks that saves the Wallet and doesn't Compromise on Flavor and Quality, but to mention Service and Speed!!!!!!!!!!!!!“
“We have been eating breakfast regularly at Layered for two years. The service is consistently attentive and friendly. The food is always good, although the scrambled eggs are sometimes overcooked. The robot food delivery is great fun. The top tier coffee bar is always a treat. The restaurant is clean and the seating is comfortable. This is our family’s favorite breakfast stop.“
“I read these reviews before checking out this place and was very curious because most of these reviews were so positive with just a few bad ones from the same family so I was a little suspect. And I have found that majority of the time when someone blasts a local business on social media , there is usually a back story that they are not telling. Anyway, I am so glad I did. I did not see anything that they reported on. And if they frequent these cafes, they'd know that the prices are definitely in line with the "going rate". Some people just like to complain I guess. The place had a very laid back vibe and Josh was friendly and knowledgeable about the products. Drinks were tasty. I will definitely be back.“
“Went for the first time and was pretty good. I got a caprese panini and it was lukewarm, almost cold with the bread not being toasted well so that could have been better. The lavender latte had a good flavor. They have a lot of options of food and coffee so will try other things in the future. Cute inside as well.“
“Had their mango smoothie and about fell out the car how good it was. Friendly staff and was relatively quick service. I went through the drive through so not sure about inside or its atmosphere, not even sure you can dine inside but I'd imagine if you could it wouldn't be a bad place to go given the friendly staff. If you've never been, at least go and try out the mango smoothie, or maybe not in case they run out before I get to order another...“
“This coffee shop has become our go-to spot on weekends. It's tucked away at the back of a bike shop, and unlike the other busy coffee shops in downtown McKinney, it's always a peaceful oasis for us. My absolute favorite is their house made toasted pecan syrup. The baristas here take so much pride in their craft, and they consistently make the best microfoam for my cortado. I can't help but look forward to our weekend stops here!“
“I have come here twice, and both times loved the experience. The owner is so friendly and kind, and makes an effort to connect with customers. The drinks were wonderful as well. Would definitely recommend this place to friends and family nearby.“
“THE BEST Starbucks in McKinney by far!!!! The Manager Rufuro is the sweetest manager and very attentive to what's going on in her store. The baristas are always up bear and talkative and always put a smile on everyone's faces, especially Victor, Kiran, Jess, Kylie, Julie, Evelyn, Grace, Claudia, And Tara. The drinks are always made to perfection and the food is always warm. This is by far my favorite Starbucks and the atmosphere is just cozy and great to relax and do some work. Definitely recommend stopping at this location.“
“Very cute little shop. Stopped here because it was close to the high school and we were at an event there from out of town. Donuts and kolaches were delicious, staff was very friendly and even gave me a bag of donut holes on the house since I had a big order. Good prices and adorable decorated donuts!“
“Cute tiny place with fast and friendly service. Red Velvet and Smooth Operator My friends are a fan of Emporium Pies, but they made me wait until February to try it so i can try the Valentine's month special: Red Velvet, which was amazing and totally worth the wait. Now I have something to look forward to every February! We also tried the Smooth Operator, which was also really good!“
“I go to Dutch Bros at least a few times a week. It's a great pick-me-up before heading into a long night of work. The coffee always tastes great and if you need a little extra kick, they'll be more than happy to give you some extra espresso, which is always nice. I typically get the blended annihilator, which I'd also highly recommend to anyone, something about just tastes perfect! I'll definitely continue coming to this Dutch Bros regularly.“
“Starbucks is always good but this location REALLY stands out!! The build/space/design is really great including a great outdoor area that is very unique - definitely worth checking out. ALSO - I’ve been here maybe 10-12 times and every single time I’ve received amazing service — the people that work here really embody customer service and customer experience. The staff and the management are firing on all cylinders here — this needs to be copied and applied to all Starbucks locations!!“
“These are the best donuts. My kids love donuts so we've tried all the places around us and these are the ones we come back to every time. I love the tiny apple fritters and the small cinnamon rolls. They have regular sized also. I'll add that I do t like donuts. I'm not a fan of them, but I can eat a donut from here.“
“What a great new coffee option! I have tried many of the coffee drinks, favorites are Carmel Blondie and Mexican Mocha, but had a custom lavender, honey latte that was delicious. Love that their drinks are not too sweet and they will adjust as requested. Had phenomenal service from Emma B and Oleks every time I go in. Emma is my regular person and she is so kind and quick to offer suggestions on new drinks to try. Last time I was in she had read the company's spring newsletter and was able to tell me about drinks to look forward to for spring - so cool! Can't wait to go back and try the new spring offerings. Great design and atmosphere of their interiors.“
“Today I had THE BEST customer service ever. MARIANNA is ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC!She went above and beyond. She made my espresso shots. Every Starbucks I've been to never gives me real HOT shots. Marianna did a good job, and then found me in the store and brought me another cup of very hot shots. I've never seen anyone truly care. Marianna is adorable and just delightful. Chasen was also very kind. Now I will make a special trip to see Marianna and I'll be sure the managers know how lucky to have her on their team. YOU ROCK MARIANNA!!Thanks so much. Randee PThank you for your kindness and for going above and beyond.“
“Every single time I come to this cute store I leave with a smile on my face ! Everyone is always so nice and their selection of drinks are my fav !!! All the energy drinks at good prices and their soda machine has the BEST ice !!! Haha it matters !!! I need to mention Karem… he goes above and beyond every time I come to this store!!! He’s super cool and polite. He has recommended me some energy drinks and I’ve loved them all!! Thanks to all for making this store my preferred stop!“
“El Mejor Mexican Kitchen in McKinney delivers an authentic dining experience worthy of its name. The atmosphere buzzes with a lively spirit, matched by five-star service that makes every guest feel like family. Sipping on their house margaritas, which hit the perfect note of zest, I reveled in the gluten-free offerings—especially the Carne Asada tacos wrapped in soft corn tortillas, rich in flavor and crafted with care. Overall, El Mejor gets a glowing 5-star rating, with its culinary prowess shining through every gluten-free bite. A must-visit for anyone seeking genuine Mexican cuisine served with a generous helping of hospitality.Dietary restrictions: Gluten freeGFGluten“
“My go-to place for fresh made bagels in Frisco/McKinney area. Salt bagel + veggie cream cheese. ?Parking: Plenty of parking, can’t think of a circumstance where this would be a problem.Kid-friendliness: Typical smallish, strip-mall location. Inside contains ~10 small tables, it’s not uncommon to see mom and dad + kid(s) inside eating. Not positive they have high chairs but I believe so.“
“Typical Starbucks experience. Friendly staff, warm and cozy atmosphere, and Starbucks standard for food and drinks. I ordered a Gingerbread flavored drink and it was divine. I usually don't like hot beverages but the batista gave me a tip to order them "warm" or "kid's temp" which made it easy to drink without burning my tongue.“
“i don't usually come to this location anymore unless the one that was built closer to me is out of food items, which was the case today, but the service here is always excellent and the employees are awesome. my fibromyalgia was making me have a really difficult morning and when i noticed they put stickers on my spinach wrap i was immediately in a better mood. such a sweet, kind, cute gesture made my day and is a testament to the team of sweethearts they have here. ❤️ keep up the good work“
“The location in Melissa was all sorts of messed up. No location to find the establishment at all, doesn't answer phones. When I came here confused about what location has my order at this point, they were kind enough to make my order. The customer service is amazing and the people are kind.“
“This place is my wife’s and mine favorite place. I get the peanut butter crunch blender and she gets a strawberry smoothie. They are both wonderful! We also love the maple waffle sandwich. My wife and I just love Andrew at the window. He remembers us he also remembers our wedding coming up cus he is so polite and cares about his customers. I wish every place had a guy like Andrew. Scooters did a hell of a job when they hired this guy!“
“My favorite coffee shop in McKinney. Great atmosphere, comfortable seating, friendly staff and amazing coffee. I love all the unique flavors they offer... try the Kentucky! I come here to work often and have not had a bad experience yet. There are plenty of plugs for those with laptops which is very thoughtful for a coffee shop to have. I've seen people bring in their dogs to grab and go, and love that they are dog-friendly. They also have great gluten free options, which I'm very excited about! I don't have to drive 6 miles to find a morning breakfast option. My only complaint about this place is the parking. Get there early!“
