Historic Downtown McKinney Cultural District

McKinney has one of the oldest, most lovingly preserved, and largest historic districts in Texas. The downtown historic district draws people from all 50 states and more than 90 countries to its nostalgic setting and its more than 120 unique shops including art galleries, furniture stores, antiques, gifts, home décor shops, and apparel and accessory boutiques as well as other specialty shops! (You'll find listings of many of the shops around the downtown square by scrolling down on this page, just above the Instagram feed that sits at the bottom of the page.) 

Almost two dozen eateries in and around the historic downtown offer some of the best culinary experiences in North Texas with many of them sourcing their ingredients from local farmers. (You can access a list of Downtown McKinney restaurants by clicking the Dining button below.)
