There is so much to see and do in downtown Plano! The upgrades that have happened over the last few years have amazed me. There are so many different places to eat and shop (even during covid)! I was impressed with the amount of outdoor seating available which made for covid eating out to be safe and fun. Highly recommend a weekend trip!
I have lived in Plano Since 1993 the old red brick road is original from that time period and beyond for sure my father used to go there for 5 centMovies back in the 40”s There are lots of old shops restaurants and bars within a five minute walk Probably one of the safest areas in Dallas Fort Worth to walk around late at night. Go have some drinks and not worry about anything dart station is next-door we know the local cops and they say you would have to beg to be arrested if you’ve been drinking they do not do you mess with youSo go drink eat and be merry in safety with no worries
Too small. Not worth the drive. Woulfnonly be a good spot to visit for locals.
Historic Plano is a place to behold. It’s a short jaunt from Wylie from where I would visit with my grandchildren and daughter. A beautiful park in which to play is nearby. A Dart train takes you into Dallas, if you choose. It’s always an adventure for young & old!
This is an awesome place for dates or to hang out with friends. Easily accessible by train and lots of locally owned businesses to support. Or if you are looking for a free date, the park is beautiful. There are also events and community theater performances on occasion, so check the downtown plano website for the calendar.
Downtown Plano has a lot to do. There is a great little park to walk around. Plenty of landmarks to learn about. There is a farmers market that always has fresh local produce. Great choice for coffee either at 14 Street Coffee or XO Coffee. Its also the home of the best hair salon called The Hair Parlour. You wont be disappointed with any of these visits.
Always love walking around Downtown Plano. Love the food and shops in the area. Its a little different because of Covid but still a fun place to be.
If you love hip yet quaint places, Id recommend downtown!
Quaint little downtown area with great restaurants, bars and shops.
If you are into sweet tropical flavors go to Ha paleteria and try some mangonada Icecream.*make sure to order it with chamoy and tajin for the ultimate flavor
Love this place. Cool restaurants and shops. Nice farmers market too. Right next to the rail. Would like to see it expand like Grapevine.
The are is great. We ate at Urban Crust and the pizza was great but the steaks were covered with a strange blue cheese butter even though it wasnt on the description. Very nice atmosphere but stick to the pizza.
Downtown Plano has really grown into one of the most vibrant areas of the DFW area. There are plenty of great restaurants to eat at, the atmosphere is fun and relaxing, and there are always interesting events taking place. It feels like a downtown area should be.
I love plano tx
Love downtown plano, it’s unique in its vibe, people, restaurants and shopping! It also supports local vendors. The events are well run, varied and fun! The farmers market is the very best, great products and the owners have so much knowledge and support local growers. I’ll give it 5-stars when the sidewalk construction is complete and it’s easier to cross the roads.
Nice place to hang out if you were to live in the apartments nearby, but its all small restaurants and outdoor seating now. What happened to the beautiful antique shops and tea shop? Only one side of the street has stores to be shopped in while the rest are eateries. Some of the stores are empty with no businesses using the facilities.
The downtown area has a classic look to it with small shops, restaurants, a park with a gazebo, bandstands etc. It has an old world feel but then also has newer buildings surrounding it. Centrally located off the community rail, this is definitely a great spot to visit!
Great scene on a Saturday night in summer. Live music on the outdoor stage by the dart station, lots of people, but not too crowded, either.
Really cute area to explore. Just wish there were more shops to visit
A great balance of restaurants, lounges and Bars open late, night life, fitness, and morning grinders! Occasional live music and events. Plus its next to the dart station! You can travel to Dallas in less than an hour
So much fun.
Good spots and park to hangout. Eating options available.
Was there for 15 minutes on a Sunday morning and was approached by 2 separate people asking for money. Wasnt expecting that in downtown Plano
Interesting. Dart station & good eateries.
Very clean and safe.
Downtown Plano has a small town charm with peaceful friendly atmosphere, thriving stores, cozy restaurants, walking distance to DART train station and a few blocks from freeway 75.
Rated the best downtown in America and rightly so. Old blended with new served by Dallas Area Rapid Transit. Art, restaurants, parks, outdoor stage, museums, theater and more.
Cool place to walk around
Theres a stage in downtown Plano that has Christmas lights on it and is up all year round. There are several tables and chairs for people to stop and rest at. My buddy went to play his guitar on the stage and I brought backgammon and played it with some friends and strangers. There are plenty of restaurants and coffee shops and boutique stores around here and the train line stops right in downtown so you dont have to worry about driving or parking. If you do drive there is a good amount of parking to be found just make sure you dont park in a space reserved for the handicapped or the cops and look out for spots that have time restraints. This area is patrolled by Plano Police and therefore it is a safe area to explore but be careful for the same reasons. Your vehicle is also not likely to get broken into in the parking lots around there. There is also a 7-Eleven but it closes at midnight boooo.
Lockharts BBQ.......that is all you need to know
Good place to walk and take good lunch
It’s a fun area with a park, coffe shop and shopping
Love downtown! The shops are fun and unique, there are art galleries and the restaurants are very good. Several pubs/bars are also located here and on any given night you can find something to match your mood, from a hip rooftop bar to a low key English pub. I enjoy the wine walks they have monthly April-Nov and my friends and I have gotten to know several of he shop owners this way.
Downtown Plano has character and charm. Nice shops with variety of businesses. Clean and appealing. Marked with large concrete marker so you know you are in downtown.
Love the live music and events on weekends
Beautiful place!
This is a my best places
Liked it so much I now live there! Good resteraunts and little shops. Lots of events
I love downtown Plano! It gets better and better everyday.
Nice place but a bit pricey for what it is. I guess you pay for atmosphere.
Love Downtown Plano!! Its a great place to walk and stop in the local shops. The bars are lively with local DJs and karaoke!
Overall good but Haggard park was hopelessly hvng issues with restrooms of females while Plano Asia festival was going
A lot of panhandlers in the area. Otherwise a great atmosphere for family fun as well as singles as well.
Downtown Plano is a time gone by w the brick streets and original reconditioned building offering a variety of goods and services from quality BBQ to chocolate company . U can eat a variety of foods shop in one of a kind merchandise to happy hour at a pub or drinks on an ice bar .
Parking is a tremendous nightmare and finding any address in the whole downtown area is like throwing a dart and praying and lands on the right place.
Great art festival!
This is a very underrated part of Dallas.... Funky bars, cool shops and restaurants, a solid music scene. 15th St. is definitely a good time.
Very trendy with lots of cool restaurants and shops. Good parking lots.
Fun place, a lot of cute fun stores.
There are so many shops, restaurants and art galleries here, it is easy to have a great time by just wandering around.
Love living here!! Always interesting things going on!
Great place to enjoy wonderful food, great views and awesome friends!
Cool area nice ambience something 4 everyone.
I grew up on this two red-brick Street blocks. My mother owned the D&D Flower Shop at the corner of 15th and Avenue K. Now a pizza shop.
Destination spot, seasonal happenings, great boutique stores, LOCKHARTS best brisket SO FAR, i try it every BBQ joint
Three blocks of great shops. brickwork is interesting

Love Downtown Plano
Small town
Nothing to see
One of my favroite places to visit
Ticket machines dont give change and are slow to print receipts which may or may not be redeemable. Hope you got small bills!
Always an adventure...day or night.
Awesome shops, food, bars, and music.
