Collective Coffee

How wonderful is it when your beloved community library has now an excellent coffee shop in the vicinity? Well that is Collective coffee for you in downtown McKinney, very close to Roy Helen library. It is a treat to enjoy their carefully crafted coffee! What I love is that they don't have a mile long variety, and yet what they have in their menu is absolutely wonderful! I have gone back for their Virginia drink multiple times. Their ambience is chef's kiss! Gives me a wonderful sense of community. And all their staff and baristas are amazing. I always look forward to my coffee trips especially during weekends. And once again I really enjoy their coffee immensely!

Has anyone ever had sweater weather? It's actually the name of a drink! Apple cider with oat milk and cinnamon, it is so festive and cozy! I paired this with a blueberry loaf and let me tell ya, this loaf was texas size. It was perfect with the sweater weather. What i loved most, the vibe in this coffee shop, it was cozy but spacious, had comfortable seating, and a chill atmosphere. It's great for doing some reading, crafting, or work. And the staff was so friendly!

Inside is gorgeous! Easily one of the best designed coffee shops I've been to in the DFW area. The barista was incredibly sweet! Although our interaction was brief, I could tell she was a really nice person and it's one of those small interactions that lightens up your mood :)The inside is really spacious. However, the Tokyo Latte - described as a sweet floral latte reminiscent of Japan's cherry blossom season, was disappointing. The description sounded intriguing, but had I not known this was supposed to be a floral latte, I wouldn't have picked up on the flavor because it was subtle. I also prefer a stronger coffee taste and a creamier latte.I'd still be willing to come back though There is street parking at the front, a nearby parking lot, and some additional parking lots/garages.

What a great space! Everyone was so friendly, the coffee was delicious and reasonably priced. I tried the iced Coastal Cowgirl. They had bakery items for sale too that looked delicious and even a few art pieces on the wall you could buy. If I lived closer, I'd be a regular.

Warm and welcoming space for coffee. Plenty of room to sit and enjoy your coffee. Not sure though about the loud Christian music playing in the background the whole hour I was there. Glad they have the option of brown sugar for my latte. Coffee was good.

Some of the best coffee I've had! Definitely doesn't taste burnt or milk heavy! Plenty of space if you're looking for a place to hang out with friends or work! Service was friendly and efficient! Not too much interaction with the staff.

Jack Frost latte was so good! I was nervous because it had blueberry but it was great! This place gets packed because the coffee so good

Collective Coffee is absolutely FANTASTIC! Love their location, they're right in downtown McKinney and SUPER close to the square. The atmosphere inside is wonderful. Love the seating and how spacious it is. The Tennessee coffee was my favorite! It has honey, vanilla and cinnamon in it (PERFECTION!!!) I need to try their pastries next time, they look delicious.

Love this coffee place. It's always a nice treat to come here but i would say only a trip not an everyday coffee trip since it's close to $9 for coffee .

Their coffee menu is very simple with a couple seasonal options. The lattes were both well balanced, creamy, and smooth. The Notebook latte had rose and juniper syrup but was not overly sweet. It was just the right amount of sweetness and added flavor.The chocolate croissant had the perfect flakiness with a touch of butter. The inner layer had chocolate pieces on the bottom with a custard. I very much enjoyed it. My boyfriend mentioned it was the best chocolate croissant he has in North Texas. The service was efficient, we got our lattes in a manageable time even with the business of a holiday weekend. The ambiance was a dark modern aesthetic with a touch boho by using real pathos plants at the table and walls. The lighting was dim enough to create a warmth in the coffee shop's environment. I would say it's diverse in seating arrangements. They have options of bistro tables and chairs, a couple vintage couches, or long tables for larger groups.I will be back to try their coffee flights next time!
