The Fillmore Pub

 

Love it at lunch. Very relaxed, great staff, good food and a good beer selection. Never seen it crowded at lunch which I guess is bad for them but good for me. Prefer it to Vickery Park across the street, that's for sure.

 

 

 

a beer bar on the brink of sport bar feel. sort of a yuppy spot for the locals. don't be suprized if you see some lunch time mac users. and a reasonable number of people drinking generic beer... there have quite a selection of locals and germans and some belgians predominately. they have some seasonals. but nothing you can't find in most anywhere else in plano in a liquor store. the selection is not really that utilized by the clients when i got there... went there on a saturday once and it was 1 beer for 2 mixed drinks. although the staff has a grasp of whats going on and whats to be had. so ask about the local stuff if lost. about 50-70 bottles. and i think 8 taps.

Great vibe. It's quite dark with good beaten-in decor and lots of people having a good time. A nice big wraparound bar. Nice area too, and it's rarely jampack-crowded like Uptown, Midtown, or Greenville can get.

Limited taps, but they had 120 Minute IPA! Also they always have a Franconia (best I can tell, from my two visits). Pretty good bottle selection.

Knowledgeable, serious tenders. Very helpful.

Food smelled good.

My new favorite place. Go check it out if you haven't been (and have some 120M while it lasts, which will luckily be a while at sniffer pours).

This place just keeps on surprising me. I didn't expect such a wonderful establishment to be in Plano. It's an excellent place to go if you're around the area since most other good options are located to the south. Tap selection rotates pretty frequently and I've noticed that they consistently offer Franconia on draft. Service is overall pretty good, just be warned that this place can be quite busy and loud on a friday or saturday night. Overall the atmosphere is relaxed and pretty chill.

Food is outstanding for a bar/pub. Very broad list of dishes on the menu and they also have an affordable reverse happy hour menu. I've been going to brunch here almost every sunday morning and trying something new each week. My favorite dishes so far are the Kahlua French toast and the Irish breakfast. If I go with a big enough group, it's a good idea to share a plate of biscuits and gravy. I've had plenty of good times here and I'll keep on coming back!

A very welcome establishment to the North Dallas/Plano area. Decent parking set up if you are familiar with downtown Plano and very central/homey locale. Most of the times I've been here its mellow and chill. I predict it will be bumping in the near future. The selection is top notch for anything north of 635. A rotating draft line of new and interesting selections for the area. The owners are former Idle Rich/Gingerman crew so they know whats what. I don't remember seeing anything lame on the menu, food is decent and above standard bar fare. I would recommend this place only if you were north of 635, not a whole lot to choose from up there and all the preferred is more downtown. They have a knack for at least having one Texas Micro on tap so far, so theres some props. A cool hang hang out with good brews, when I'm up in the area I stop by. Decent place. Cheers.
