Reviews from our guests
Danielle Roberts
5 months agoCan’t say enough good things about this bar and Brad the Karaoke Man! Always fun at Music Bingo and especially karaoke! Yes I bring my kids here to sing, it’s so family friendly! The staff is always so nice and attentive, and we love when Taylor the bartender sings his 90’s grunge or 00’s emo songs!
Ekaterina Herron
2 years agoSo happy this place is finally open!! We came in non-peak hours and they were still busy. Our waiter Albert was attentive, friendly and professional. We ordered wings, which are probably one of the best in town! The brussel sprouts appetizer was so delicious as well! The dip trio was fine, but we could have done without. We were impressed with their beer selection and other alcoholic beverages, which included margarita flights. The only suggestion is to add napkins to the tables in addition to the only one provided with the silverware. But overall, this is a new favorite sports bar now!

5 months agoWe had dinner here last Saturday night, and not only did we absolutely love the food, drinks, and service, but we were also incredibly grateful for the honesty and kindness of the staff. Unfortunately, we accidentally left a wallet behind, and we were extremely worried. Thanks to the integrity and human kindness of the employees, the wallet was safely kept and returned to us. We didn’t get the chance to ask for anyone’s name, but we truly want to recognize the amazing team here. This experience meant so much to us and speaks volumes about the values and professionalism of the people who work here. We will definitely be coming back, and we highly recommend this place — not just for the great food and drinks, but for the wonderful people who make it special.

4 months agoThe brass tap is one of my favorite breweries in McKinney. They have a good selection of beers and great rotation of seasonal brews. The food is just as good. Me and my wife love sharing the hot honey pepperoni pizza! The brass tap also does music bingo on the weekdays which makes date night during the week an easy choice ! The service is incredible and I feel like I’m home every time I visit.

4 months agoI wasn't sure about this place at first but my favorite bartender Taylor told me about it. So i gave it a shot, and now under the new ownership of Eric it's my all-time favorite bar in the area. Weekly trivia games and music bingo it's always a blast. My favorite day is Friday karaoke night when the best event host I know Brad is laying down all the fresh beats for everyone to sing to. All the way around Best bar/restaurant I've been to in McKinney Texas!!!

4 months agoBeen coming to the brass tap for years. A new bartender his name is Taylor has been a great new addition. He has great energy very polite always ahead never need to wait for a drink. The food here is outstanding always on point. All polite and courteous staff. I have never seen any customer complain when I was there. Come on Friday and get a live band. Don't take my word come and see what a great place this is

4 months agoI'm a firm believer that sharing positive experiences and reviews help businesses like this Brass Tap recognized the positive impact they have on our community along with the customers that eat and drink here. My experience as a solo diner was extremely memorable. As soon as I walked into the building I was greeted immediately with a sincere welcome. I sat at the bar and the bartender gave me space while staying attentive. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED that the beer selection was not aligned with the nearby restaurants......infact, it was a TRUE craft beer experience. The list included medal award winning beers as well as beers I know are allocated and hard to find....yes, I AM A BEER NERD, LOL. The burger was huge (I also added extras inside) and was cooked spot-on. Truffle fries and pot stickers were a hit as well. The manager Eric came by to check on me and that was the icing on the cake. He was easy to talk to, sincere, and you could tell his heart was there in this restaurants success. He invited me to a couple upcoming events that they apparently host often, one being a cool Superbowl viewing party that he was finalizing. I'll be back with the fam soon, and will also be inviting my co-workers for drinks after work. 10 out of 10.....this place is a VIBE! Thanks to the staff, management, and owners who made this place a gem.

4 months agoMom and Pop owned location. What great staff! Food was on point and the whole restaurant was clean. Specials every night. Check out Wednesday for trivia, Thursday for music bingo and Friday for an off the hook karaoke 🎤! Had a great time thanks to the staff. See to next week!
Steve Davis
4 months agoStop by Brass Tap on Friday night and so glad we did. The beer selection is excellent and service on point! Can't wait to come back and work our way down the beer list. Excellent service from Cobra!
