Atmosphere and food are amazing. The first date night out to visit a local place since my family moved to Prosper. It made moving worth it... read more

Stopped here on a whim for breakfast while passing through. Glad I did! This place is amazing to put it simple. Great food, great service, friendly staff, great all around! A hidden gem that everyone should know about! read more

The Gin Prosper - Me and Mark stopped by for Gin Breakfast Platter on way to Austin. - American Near Me - Prosper, Texas

ricky & the staff took such good care of us! We always feel welcomed, their covid protocol makes me feel safe to be out and I will be a returning customer read more

I went there for breakfast B.C. (Before Covid) and it wasn't good. Really below average taste for plain bacon and eggs. I'm willing to give them another try as they are a local business. Maybe the lunch menu? read more

We love the Gin as our go to date night spot. Friendly staff, good food, and relaxed atmosphere. It doesn't get too loud in the dining room and always seems to be packed in the bar. We have been here a few nights where the staff and/or kitchen has been overwhelmed and both times received excellent communication. One night the host and manager on duty made sure to stop by to check on us. Would highly recommend. read more

The food is always good here. I recommend the CFS plate. Downtown Prospers finest dining

Stopped in for lunch and had the Wagu Cheese burger. Was very disapointed as the meat was overcooked with not much flavor, crunchy around the edges, and had small bits of cartiledge and bone that I had to keep spiting out. Also the onion rings were undercooked. Had expected a much better tasting burger for $12. I had not been to this place since it was remodeled from the Cotton Gin. Was very disappointed. I will not be returning. read more

I want to like this place more than I do. The service and drinks have been good each time, but every food item has been lackluster. Nothing bad, but nothing worth being excited about either. With so many better food options it's hard to justify going back. Improve the food quality and we'd be regulars. read more

Love this spot!!!! Good home country cooking that's always hot. Very nice clean place to enjoy dinner and a drink

Great pizza!! Great service even while extremely busy. I have enjoyed the live music events. Special find in Downtown Prosper.

The Gin never disappoints. Popped in last night for dinner. Their pizza is the best. Hubs had the wings too. One of our go-to places for sure. read more

Used to be a great spot for breakfast and lunch before they changed over to the current model. Now it's overpriced with WAY less options and the best dishes no longer available. They traded out a quaint, cute diner aesthetic with good food for a more "hip" model with leather booths and minimal options. There are several other options of this model not far away that are much better. Won't be going back again. read more

First time here, never even knew this place was so close to home! Decided to stop by for happy hour and really like the feel and look of it. Happy Hour prices u can't beat! Will def return!! read more

I went to Gin and Maddox was bad ass! He knew everything I wanted to drink. Dude looks like he benches 500 lbs and makes drinks with finness. Best place in town! Go see Maddox! read more

Amazing spot for all, date night for live music or family night enjoying some amazing eats, and insanely good pizza! Highly recommend.

Just a heads up for Native Texans...the "chili" has beans and has little or no chili seasoning.

Walked over to Cotton Gin. First time. Cool little downtown cafe. What you would think about if you thought of a small town cafe. Comfort food may not be farm fresh, but it was super hot and definitely better than any fast food place. (I had lunch...I hear breakfast is farm fresh) I will go again, I will take friends and family. It's a neat little place. The food is good, the people are nice, but more than anything it seems to be the type of place where you go to spend time with the people you are with with. A family dinner table away from home if you will. I like it! read more

This place is amazing. Great food, entertainment and staff. The back patio is huge and kid friendly! Inside there are plenty of tvs to watch any sports game. There was a band the night I went and they were AMAZING! My new favorite spot! read more

I live in town as well and had breakfast last Saturday. I was very disappointed in the food as everything we were served was between warm and cold including the coffee. There were five of us and we all felt the same when we left. We have been going here from the time it opened as the Cotten Gin and the breakfast is not anywhere as good as it was. The service was good and friendly but I'm pretty sure we won't be back. read more

The should do a better job about telling people they do not want kids outside after 7. Especially if you are going to take 45 minutes to take an order. Then an additional 45 to bring the checks and an additional 20 to bring them back after the cards are presented. Especially if your staff is more than willing to stand outside and tell you no kids outside after 7 but not help speed up your attempt at leaving. Food was good just not a family friendly environment. read more

1st visit here while shopping in area. Busy for Sat lunch hour with family customers getting brisket sandwich special. Over flow crowd sat in back rooms. Desserts look real good so save room in your tummy. read more

great food. great service. great establishment. The management team does a really good job of keeping the restaurant running like a well oiled machine. read more

Service sucks after I was seated I waited 10 minutes for waitress to take drink order.

Let me start by saying, I'm not really sure how this place gets one or two stars. This is a very nice hidden restaurant/bar/backyard patio gem right in the middle of Prosper. They are growing and the back patio is going to be the place to be in a few months, that is for sure. The menu is small, but the food is good. I'd rather have fewer choices and good food than lots of choices with substandard quality. Everyone was always asking if we were alright, if we needed anything, etc.. I loved that. However the rockstar of the place is Ashlee. Please ask to be seated in her area, I assure you, you won't have better service. Her customer service and attention to detail is second to none, and I'll definitely be going back if nothing else, to have amazing customer service provided by her! read more

Worst place ever, good luck getting sat or even getting the time of day. Asked to speak to a manager, and for his name and he goes "what for" - really small-town friendly service. Pretty sure the owner would love you representing his establishment. Friday night 10/29 at 6:21pm, long brown hair - if need reference for the manager working, I would want to know, if it were my place. read more

Decent place in downtown. I was exploring for new places and came across this. The ambience was good and food was decent. The quantity is larger than others. This is definitely worth a visit. read more

Great bar with a great brunch on Sunday. Friendly staff, good drinks, great prices. Great patio...can't wait till Spring and Summer. read more

The Gin Prosper - American Near Me - Prosper, Texas

See all

Cool place and the food others seemed to be eating looked good but service is a bust. Wasted an hour to sit for a table and nobody even showed up to take an order after waiting another 20 mins once seated. Way too many tables for only three servers working who also had to bus tables. Be honest with customers-- especially those waiting with kids-- when you're too understaffed for a visit. We had to get up and leave with empty tummies! read more

Really really good place to bring your family and friends for lunch! Love it's sense of community and small town. Very good food and drink.

The good outweighs the bad, for sure. Very nice service, very clean place. I came with a small group of 5. I got some wings and a salad - very good for both of those. Fresh salad, and the wings had great flavor! My friend got a chicken dish that he liked pretty much. The mashed potatoes were lovely! Another friend got nachos, which are hard to judge.. the toppings were great! Loved all the ingredients. The chips were quite bad. Kind of stale, very thick, and just not crisp. I'd just take a bowl of the toppings. The next friend got a burger. This was the letdown. The burger was overcooked and super greasy. The bun was oily. The cheese was sliding off, not due to melting, but due to grease. And the fries that came with it were not even warm, and soggy. I, myself, am not a fan of the pizza style. But it wasn't bad. My friend loved it! I'm from st. Louis, so it's different. But it wasn't bad at all for the style. I'd definitely come back! And I would recommend.. just not the burger. But they were wonderful people. read more

Best place ever amazing flat breads truly amazing it is mouth watering when ever you taste your food

Great atmosphere and food. The live music was great too! The staff was friendly and accommodating. We sat outside by the band for an event. One of the servers forgot one of our round of drinks for about 20 minutes or so but once we ordered again after moving inside, he felt terrible and comped them for the inconvenience. It was a large crowd we had with us so totally not a big deal and it happens. I love the modernness yet country feel of the place. The drinks were great! We had: The Lilac, which was like a lilac lemonade. Very refreshing and not super sweet! The Smash, which was also not super sweet, very refreshing and pretty! Grey Goose Dirty Martini, was made yummy but maybe a tad too much vermouth. La Crema Pinot Noir, DELICIOUS! The Food: Chicken wings, our table ordered some but since I don't eat meat, didn't taste them but they looked great and perfectly cooked. The carrots and celery were fresh and ranch was perfect. Pizza was awesome, we had all of them but only little pieces without meat on them lol. Still yum! The bruschetta crisps were DELICIOUS! The garlic bread and sauce was also very very good. Loved the slight spice in the sauce. They also had sports on the screens, so if you're into that! Can't wait to go in the summer! read more

A great experience every time. I've been to The Gin on 3 different occasions and have been extremely pleased every time. Food is consistently good, the service is outstanding and the atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. We've booked our company Christmas Dinner at The Gin and look forward to sharing this treasure with our work family. read more

This place slaps so hard. Absolute fire. Best food, best staff, best drinks. You can feel the positivity in the air the moment you walk in the door. Wow. The ambiance and atmosphere cannot be matched read more

Because of slow service at the tables, we pulled up chairs at the bar. Bartenders were friendly and drinks were good. VERY limited menu. Food was good, but portions were small. $13 is a lot for a dozen wings with no sides. But, they did taste good. read more

The old Cafe was just fine, good food and great small town ambiance, with the renovations I'm not sure why the food and service changed. Our food took forever to Cooke out and it came out in installments. The food was terrible, my chili tasted like it was out of a can! The quest Was a disgrace and my daughter was told they were out of wings 15 minutes after we placed thee order. We ordered a dry burger but it was served with everything in it, by now my daughter was starving . Really disappointed in the new Cotton Gin Cafe! read more

Great find! This was a great place to pop in for drinks and appetizers. The menu selection was great and a wide variety of drinks options. Great service too, we'll be back! read more

The food is good and the drinks are good. However, the service is very slow every time I have been. The live music on the patio is nice.

Good: Friendly Staff, Cheap Prices Bad: Food is Ok Overall: Very popular, but the food was not great. This appears to be a small business where the staff is incredibly friendly and has a loyal following. There was always someone waiting to order. I intended to order the catfish special, but when I was told it was fillet, I decided to go with something else. I ordered chicken tenders and fries. In retrospect, I probably should have gotten curly fries or fried okra. The food I received was ok, but not great. I think it may have been better had I ordered something else, so I'm willing to give it another shot. read more

Great family diner. The burgers are so good. I have eaten their fish sandwich too and enjoyed it. Next visit, I am going for breakfast.
