50 Best Bars near Highland Village

“Great service and friendly“

“They catered out "Marriage & Mimosa" Brunch send off on Sunday. It was all amazing. When we ran out of food, the delivered more and it was even better! lol! From the Bagels, eggs to the tater tot casseroles and wings. I would 100% use them again.“

“We ate here today and had a wonderful experience. They were accommodating with the table so we could see the Packers game, patient with our spirited young child, and the food was fantastic. Our waiter was attentive but not overbearing. We’ll for sure be back often!“

“Spent a fun afternoon on the patio and enjoyed some amazing wines! Super friendly and knowledgeable. Our server, Ariel, was so helpful! We joined the wine club. Can’t wait to go back! 😄“

“It is always nice to not have to be nervous going up to the bar to order a drink—and the Bearded Monk always succeeds in making everyone feel welcomed and safe. The bartenders are kind and inviting, and they make great drinks. Thanks for making the community a nicer place!“

“Absolutely loved this place! Rodger the owner was in and he introduced himself and he was very friendly. The bartender (not sure of her name; but she’s very sweet) This is definitely going to be my go to when I need to sneak away for an island feeling 🤩“

“$5 per person to play is a great price, they have a huge selection of games! We just got some sodas so I can't really comment on the food. It does get a bit loud in the evening making it hard to talk/read instructions so I would recommend bringing earplugs to put in while reading.

Amending my review because I didn't realize there were cushy seating options for smaller groups, thank you for letting me know! :)“

“Highly recommend Local Pint! So good! And the Best owners and staff!! Go support this awesome small business!“

“Best bar in Little Elm“

“chill atmosphere on a Saturday night“

“1845 was incredible! Went there for a business dinner was thoroughly impressed. Sad I don’t recall our server’s name but he was incredible! He explained the story behind 1845, knew the menu by heart, provided excellent suggestions and was attentive.

On top of the service being fantastic the food is next level. Steak cooked perfectly, appetizers were great and dessert had me speechless. The only thing I would recommend is to offer complimentary bread similar to most other steak houses and offer other sizes of steaks. 14oz is massive and since I was travelling I didn’t want to waste it. However if you had a smaller portion such as a 10oz ribeye I would have been all over it. Ended up ordering the 7oz filet mignon which was great but I would have preferred the ribeye.

The ambiance was modern with a lot of Texas flare. Overall, very impressed with everything.“

“great spot for good drinks and quality cigars.“

“Great stage, great sound, great staff!“

“We stopped but had an amazing meal. Enjoyed meeting Mr Embry. We felt welcome and at home“

“This place is crazy enough to even let an unknown starving artist with raw talent and some potential walk inside and well ... just jam with their musicians ... And they let me bring my one dog that is well behaved in public spaces every time they aren't busy!

“Great experience love the sliding door arrangement for the dining“

“We went for the first time last night on a whim and had one of the best dinners and service ever. We had reservations at 6:15, and arrived an hour earlier than planned. The hosts adjusted on the fly and sat us immediately (it was pre dinner rush and there were tables available). Our server Taylor was personable, knowledgeable (knew the menu front to back, including items that weren’t on the menu), and attentive. We started with a couple of their signature cocktails and the meatball appetizer, followed by the surf and turf and veal chops, and ended with the cheesecake and the peanut butter cup martini. Everything, let me repeat EVERYTHING, was amazing. Not once did we feel like we were being rushed by the staff to finish, empty plates and glasses were picked up promptly and discreetly by the busser. Even though it was our first time there, Taylor instantly made us feel like we were long time regulars and friends. The entire experience was top notch. Definitely will be added to our restaurant rotation.“

“If you haven't tried Margarita Hut on Loop 288 yet, you're missing out! The drinks are always refreshing, the vibes are fun, and the customer service is absolutely top tier. Christie, the owner, is one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet she genuinely cares about her customers and makes everyone feel welcome. You can tell she puts her heart into this place. Customer service is a solid 10/10 every single time. Highly recommend stopping by!“

“Our experience was top notch! We started with the brie appetizer and added baguettes, which were suggested by our bartender, it was delicious! We followed it with the grilled snapper with shrimp ceviche, it was superb! We topped it off with the peanut butter cheesecake, it was delicious! Did I also tell you they have happy hour Tuesday through Sunday 3p-7p? We will be back! We enjoyed the experience and our food was delicious!“

“amazing food and would definitely go back“

“I stopped in this place a few weeks ago. It wasn't too packed, and I hung out at the bar for a while, watching some guys play pool. The crowd seemed to leave about 10:30 and it was pretty empty at that point. The bartender that night was Jadis, who was amazing and very good about answering questions about the leagues and pool tournaments held there. I ordered the pork chop, which was the best meal I had on my short trip as well. If you're in the area, stop by for the pork chop, and ask for Jadis!“

“Buffalo Hirsch hosted a fantastic event for my husband's retirement this last weekend! We can't thank the staff enough for being so great throughout the planning and execution of this party. Everyone was so friendly, helpful, and bent over backwards to ensure we had a successful event.

We loved the food trucks - there was something for everybody! The wine/spirits/beers and anything else you'd want was available and they managed it all. We loved the venue/party room that was well staffed, beautifully decorated, and spotless. I'd give it more stars than 5 but there's a limit in the selection for rating!!

Thanks for making this big event so memorable for our family!“

“Magnolia located in the Holiday Inn is a welcoming local spot offering delicious Cajun food, refreshing drinks, and a relaxed atmosphere. The menu features flavorful dishes, generous portions, and classic favorites perfect for lunch or a quick bite. Friendly service, a comfortable setting, and a great neighborhood vibe make it an excellent choice.“

“We visited Verf's on 9/19/25 and Jose F was our waiter. The food was wonderful, and our waiter Jose did an excellent job checking on us but not becoming annoying by constantly asking if we needed anything. We sat near the bar which was a tad noisy, but the booth we were seated in was uncomfortable and better suited for larger people b/c the table is too far away from the seats. And our table had an uneven wood surface as we cut into our food. Lastly, the $2.50 discount for Police/Fire/Vets should be a little more ... say 15%. Otherwise, it was an outstanding dining experience.“

“Great location, good food and top notch service! Becca our waitress was excellent!!“

“The hidden jewel in Lewisville! Established in 1988 and has been a staple for the community with a “cheers” atmosphere. Bar staff is top notch and attentive. From karaoke to poker (and other events mixed in), there’s something for everyone here. Daily drink specials to wet your whistle and one of the few places you can come in knowing nobody and end the night with at least a half dozen new friends. Patrons range from mid 20’s to 70’s and all are here to have a great time.“

“WONDERFUL neighborhood bar. I’ve been coming to RTs for almost 2 years. Great drink selections .“

“Great place!! First time being there. Not from the area, but I had a blast.. It was karaoke night and I had a great night.. Will diffenantly will go back.“

“cool place. they really have done a nice job with the outdoor heaters , and all of the staff is very friendly“

“Awesome location with a great atmosphere. Food is amazing! The kind of crowd that sings along with every song. you can't get better!“

“First, the vibe of the hotel is top tier. As for the bar, the margaritas are ????. I've had watermelon and peach so far, with a tajin rim. Talk about flavor. The bartenders have been excellent. I would definitely recommend stopping by, even if you're not a hotel guest. Cheers to you W XYZ Lounge ??“

“Great Hospitality from the staff. The BLT is on point. Not sure I’ll be able to ever order anything else. Ice cold Millers!“

“I posted a negative review originally… However, Ryan the owner reached out to me personally to try and accommodate and assess the reasons for my review. Ryan went as far as to have a private discussion which I won’t go into, in person! If that doesn’t show the management and staff cares I don’t know what does. I gladly and appreciatively took down my negative review and am overwhelmingly happy with the overall experience we simply hit a rough patch and Ryan did his part to help the customer and fix the problems. I’ve gone to the garage for a long time and plan on continuing to visit and be a regular. Thank you Ryan and thank you the garage for being a good place to come and chill out in. I can happily say I recommend this to anyone that wants to escape the monotonous clubs for some chill vibes, pool, and good drinks.“

“The experience of watching the bartenders hand craft the cocktails can only be topped by the taste. Wonderful atmosphere for couples, friends or groups.“

“Good cocktails, laid back vibes, cute puppies 💕“

“Happy to see Harvest House open and with a fresh vision with new ownership. Great drink selection and a new food truck with a stellar burger and parm fries!!! Live music sounded great and really enjoyed the vibe. Will for sure be back soon!“

“The people at Eastside are like family. I can’t say a negative thing about Eastside or the people there. It’s like my second home. I will forever be grateful for them.“

“🍳 Sunday Brunch Review – J. Macklin’s (Coppell, TX) 🍳 My wife and I stopped in for Sunday brunch at J. Macklin’s and overall had a great experience! The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, perfect for a weekend meal. We did have an extended wait (they were out of biscuits 😅), but I have to give major credit to the management and wait staff. They handled it extremely well and even offered a discount for the inconvenience. Truly phenomenal service, they turned the situation around and made us feel taken care of. We tried the Bacon Board, which has a fun concept but could use a little more creativity. Just maple syrup on bacon didn’t quite hit the mark, but with a little flair this could easily be their signature appetizer. Now the entrées were exceptional. ✔️ My wife’s Southern Benny was flavorful and perfectly executed. ✔️ I had the grilled cheese with a hearty tomato soup and fries and let me just say, those fries were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Bottom line: 🔹 Great vibe, 🔹 excellent main dishes, 🔹 and top-tier service. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“We love it here! One of our favorite places to visit. My happy place is on the porch! Oh and the coffee is delicious 😃“

“I’ve been coming here for quite sometime, and this has become one of my favorite places. The owner is genuinely friendly and welcoming, and you can tell he really cares about his customers and the atmosphere.

The beer selection is outstanding, with something for everyone, whether you’re into local craft beers or want to try something new. The food is consistently great and pairs perfectly with the drinks.

What really keeps me coming back is the overall vibe. The crowd is always friendly, the service is excellent, and the place has a warm, relaxed atmosphere that’s perfect for hanging out with friends or just enjoying a good beer.

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great beer, great food, and even better people. It’s one of those spots that makes you want to keep coming back.“

“It's a great local place to hang out. I've come in here recently a couple times and everybody is cool af. Haven't tried the food but I've heard nothing but good things.“

“Coldest beer in town with the most enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and friendliest staff in Denton!“

“Top favorites were the mentaiko creamy udon and the yakitori. HM was the grilled salmon kama. They give lots of seafood and toppings for the udon, and the udon was the perfect texture and chewiness. Yakitoris were tender and juicy. Got the negima and momo yakitoris. Earl grey highball was slightly too sweet, but could probably request for less sweet next time.

…only downside was the AC blowing on us and the food making the food cool down too fast while eating. felt rushed eating because the food was getting cold. wouldn’t recommend sitting in the back table near the restrooms…

Overall, would go back again.“

“it's a fun, awesome place. I love it!!!❤️❤️❤️“

“I had the best night of my life because of Jacque!! She makes the best drinks/ shots and introduced me to my new favorite drink, the “pink princess”. Every time I see her I feel like I’ve come home from war, thank you Jacque 🫶🏼“

“Delicious pizza! Most like NY-style than anywhere else in the DFW area.“

“They are in a soft opening, but the staff and owner were very gracious and welcoming. We definitely ordered too much for 3 people (sorry, not sorry? We got to try a number of dishes!). Mango lassi was sweet and refreshing. Bhindi was fresh and well cooked. Rice was very aromatic - all the food was! We spoke to the chef and he said he has a contemporary approach to the best flavors of India. I loved the Tadka dal (I've never had dal this rich and flavorful!). I could go on about the masala fries, paneer, and bread, but just take this as my recommendation to try it! Vegetarian friendly!“

“My rating is 5 stars bc I love coming here but if I had to rate the bartender, Hayden, I would give him negative 7348548738 stars. He is the worst, extremely rude, and I'd rather die of thirst than order a drink from him. All of the other bartenders are so nice and friendly.“
