The Pantry - McKinney

If you chose 100 ways to make a restaurant run effectively, The pantry chose 101. So slow and my burger was underwhelming.My son had a slice of pie, he liked it. The food was fair. Honestly, i do not take the time to write unless I am blown away either way, good or bad.The woman taking the orders was painfully slow, i asked for ketchup from a young man, and he pointed and said, go get it,However, the staff wants a 20 percent tip.Will not go back unless held at gunpoint.

Went for breakfast and we were so disappointed. The food was not fresh or hot most of it seemed precooked. Bacon was over done, gravy had some weird herb flavor that should never go in cream gravy, apple strudel flapjacks were just regular flapjacks with cinnamon apples and oats thrown in it, the biscuit was cold and dry. It was our first and last experience

I got to try this gem of a restaurant after my colleagues recommended it for lunch. It’s a quick walk in the square to get here. I immediately was submerged into a Texas version of a hallmark movie! So nostalgic! There’s daily specials or you can choose from the menu and THERE’S PIE!! Get the pie! Most of us had the meatloaf and it was moist and tasty! Green beans and cornbread were great sides. I really enjoyed the chocolate cake and coconut cream pie. I would have preferred it a little sweeter but if semi sweet is your jam then you’ve found your tribe! A great local business with Texas charm! And there’s boozy ice cream that I must try when I return!

Wonderful restaurant with old fashioned feel and great food. Have dined here for lunch a few times, tried something different on the menu at each visit, and have never been disappointed at the quality of the food. Atmosphere is laid back and comfortable. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They have an ice cream counter called The Cocktail Creamery. They make all their own ice cream and have dozens of flavors. Absolutely fabulous ice cream! Enjoy a day of shopping then make The Pantry a must for lunch and an ice cream. You won't be disappointed. Located just off the main town square on Louisiana Street. Highly recommend.

Love the atmosphere and live music. The booze infused ice cream along with my slice of pecan pie, was magnifique! This will be a regular spot for me to just have a good old fashioned good time.
