Fun Things To Do!
Historic Downtown McKinney
McKinney has one of the oldest thriving historic downtowns in Texas. The downtown commercial district offers more than 120 unique shops and over two dozen restaurants. Art galleries, furniture stores, antique, gift and home décor shops and apparel boutiques offer treasures for your shopping pleasure.
The Stix Icehouse
Hey! We’re Mike & Rae Luther. We love food and family. Raising four boys made us appreciate wide open spaces and fun places to play even more - so you'll find incredible food, amazing drinks and 14 acres full of fun at The Stix. Minutes away from our home, we wanted a place to hang with our boys, catch up with family friends or make the most of a weeknight dinner together, and a place where the community could do the same. Inspired by some of our favorite watering holes like Katy Trail Icehouse and Waterloo in Austin, we've created your new favorite hangout - we may all live in "the sticks" but that doesn’t mean we can’t have lots of fun!

TUPPS Brewery
Located in the historic Cotton Mill building, TUPPS specializes in pale ales made with an eye to creative combinations and unique flavors. The modest price of admission to one of the Saturday tours buys you a glass and three pours. Happy hours are held on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons.
The Celt Irish Pub
Irish pub food pairs up in a traditional setting with darts, & large selection of beers & whiskeys! As an additional side note, our great friends band, The Buzz Andrews Band frequents this pub! The food is amazing and the owner truly loves what he does every day! I believe anyone who loves Irish pubs will absolutely love this one!

Franconia Brewing Company
