Beautiful, quaint little main street that's in the shape of a square.. There are great little boutiques, antique shops, candy stores, excellent, diverse types of restaurants and a beautiful hotel. There's a performing arts center right in the middle.. I believe it's called, it has shows and such that are very good. It has an old-school feel, but is modern... More

Great area for a day trip, We stayed at the Grand Hotel and ate at Snug on the Square, and did some antique shopping and had a great time.

This us what old town used to be like. I remember when I was a boy going into to town with my grand-parents on Saturday, McKinney has done a great job of keeping its downtown area the old square active and full of life. From the Christmas celebrations to art festivals, to just going down to the square for a... More

I love the older buildings architecture, many family fun events are held here throughout the year. Visit the City of Mckinney website to see the upcoming events. Very friendly shop owners and staff and I love the feeling when you walk down the square, you can embrace the beauty of the buildings and imagine what life must have been like... More

Very nice. My wife and I frequent the square often. I highly recommend the Grand Hotel, Ricks Chophouse, Paciulgo's Gelato, and our favorite Squareburger(get the Salmon Burger!). Full of upscale little niche boutique shops that my wife loved. There was plenty of good food and unique things to keep me interested like the old timey candy shop, salsa tasting shop,... More

Fun traditional downtown to stroll around and shop. Lots of cute shops to explore and resturants to snack at. Spend the afternoon browsing shops to discover hidden treasures, we came home with much more then we went looking for!

The street decorations changed from Fall to Christmas the weekend we were there so we were lucky enough to see both. We really appreciated the benches on almost every corner as we were visiting with a senior. Lots of different, funky shops all with great window displays and architectural detailing.
