The atmosphere has a very upscale feel while still being comfortable and welcoming. They offer a great variety of cocktails, beer, and wine, making it a perfect place for a casual night out, date night, or a place to relax with friends. Their food options are also impressive, with everything from small bites and finger foods to more filling dinner options. This is great because the staff is always so kind and welcoming. Our personal favorites have been the charcuterie board and the pizzas, both of which are always a great choice. Overall, The Red Feather is a fantastic local spot with great drinks, great food, and a polished atmosphere that makes every visit enjoyable.

Red Feather was such a vibe. The weather was perfect for sitting out on the patio, the service was…read moreamazing, and my mocktail was both beautiful and delicious. The charcuterie board was WAY bigger than I expected and honestly big enough to share as a meal next time. I ordered the Sweet Thai Chili Chicken Flatbread and really liked the flavor, but they were definitely generous with the sauce. It made the flatbread a little soggy, even after trying to crisp up the leftovers in the air fryer. Same thing with the hot honey flatbread I ordered to-go for my boyfriend. Everything tasted great, I'd just ask for the sauces on the side next time. Overall, I'd absolutely go back. Great atmosphere, great food, and now I know exactly how I'd order next visit.

Personal faves include : the Chinese Chicken Salad, meatball appetizer, fried chicken and pizzas! One wish due to the pizza being so good are more wines that compliment pizza like a bubbly rosé or Lambrusco. Great, helpful staff, indoor and patio seating, as well as a private dining area and private bathroom stalls. We just found this place about a month ago and have now popped in twice.

Our server was attentive and you could tell that a lot of locals swing by because she knew a lot of people coming in. The seating is first come first serve so be prepared for that. They have patio seating for those that want to enjoy the outside. The inside has a bar and plenty of tables. It can be a tight squeeze at some tables but makes it feel more homey. For food I had the breakfast sandwich and it was good. Pretty basic but everything from the toppings to the eggs were fresh and cooked well. The pancake was good and big so glad I tried it. Overall it's a great local spot that I will check out again.

We love downtown McKinney and so many establishments have that southern charm, friendly service, and just love people. We always bring in a group of paying patrons. Early on we felt there was a clickish vibe, but never thought anything about it. We make friends everywhere, since we are travelers . Last few months we noticed a shift, bartender ruder, lack of service, the regulars shifting their gaze as if something was wrong. Last night ended that for us, and I'm sure they will be thrilled. Our bonus son chose to come here for his celebratory event. We invited a variety of people we knew, local talents, professionals, and family. Hateful comments about having a few balloons and party hats and how "you BETTER clean all that UP, I'm not doing it." We were treated with disdain. No service, each person had to get our own menu when we were ready to order, , and silverware after food was served, no one took our drink orders, when we went to the bar-our tabs were closed after each drink order. The bartender, Chevon, (who is always there) was rude and ugly to our whole group and to those she didn't even know was in our group. The new DJ, (Shawn) skipped over our friend twice. Chevron (bartender) who didn't know the person she was speaking to was my sister, said "I hate that guy, all he sings is rock songs." I mean... it karaoke. And that guy she's talking about has been bringing a group of people here for over a year. So carry on the "high school drama" there are a ton of places in McKinney that are lovely and welcoming. When you are hateful to singers, doctors, nurses, business owners, and veterans... that news will travel fast. And as rude and ugly as this review is, it's not near as rude or ugly as we were treated, individually and as a group. If you are gonna be bias to people, you don't need to be serving them. It's sad, because I know Karen and what Spoons means to her and her family. I hope they clean house and start over in the back. FYI (Shawn was a really nice DJ, he was so kind to people celebrating others.) But other than that, I wouldn't recommend The Garage for any new Collin County resident, any bridal party, bachelor party, or group celebrating anything... you can DM me and I'll give you a personal list of plenty of places to go. Many of them walking distance.

He just ignore me basically saying yeah, but they're not doing anything. This time, Josh was there and he was an amazing waiter, he checked in. He chatted. Made sure my tea was filled on. Make sure everything was going well. Thank God the food here is always delicious so I wouldn't have come back. The food was amazing, I got the pesto Parm sandwich, it was huge and delicious. The chicken was perfect and tender. The pesto was zesty, but not overwhelming and the vodka sauce was perfect. The fries are always tasty, but honestly, I couldn't finish them... I ate all the sandwich, but it was just too good. You couldn't stop. One of the things I do love about this place is the cute speakeasy vibe and I've been here several times and the bartenders normally are awesome and very talented. When I'm not about to go to work, I'll stop by and have a couple of drinks. And I've always had a good experience except for that one time. Just prove that you should always give your favorite places a second chance if you haven't had experience. That everybody has a bad day. Cause today was an excellent day! I really do love this place and I hope you guys come and give it a try

I am not usually a dark beer guy but the server talked me into their schwarzbier and I ended up ordering a second one. If you are into porters and stouts they have you covered, and if you lean lighter there is plenty on the board too. The food held its own right alongside the beer. I went with the burger and it hit exactly the way a good pub burger should, juicy with a solid char and fries that actually get finished. My wife ordered the pappardelle on a recommendation from the table next to us and she was not sharing much of it, which tells you everything. We started with the chips and queso and cleared the bowl before the entrees even landed. Great vibe inside, big patio, and the service kept our drinks full the whole time. This one is an easy recommend.

I do not drink alcohol, but the Grasshopper drink was AMAZING. It tasted just like melted mint ice cream! We got an order of the truffle fries to go and they were also amazing. The prices were pretty decent as well. I removed a star as the service was rather slow and inattentive. We entered at 7:45pm and didn't leave until 9pm despite only having 3 total drinks and no food. We will definitely be back next time we are in town!
