When it comes to birthday parties, finding the perfect location is essential. Luckily, Plano, Texas, offers a wide range of activities and venues to make your special day unforgettable. From trendy restaurants to exciting entertainment options, this town has everything you need for a fun and memorable Plano birthday party.
The Activity
First thing’s first: If you really want to spice things up, why not consider adding a DivaDance party to kick off your Plano birthday party itinerary?
DivaDance is a unique dance class that combines hip-hop and pop music with sassy choreography, perfect for you and your birthday squad — no dance experience required! With a DivaDance private party, you and your girls will have the opportunity to let loose and have some fun while learning a hot routine to a pop song or hip-hop hit of your choosing, taught by some of the best choreographers in the business! Our instructors will guide you through the moves and help you feel confident and sexy on the dance floor, while our party host makes sure you have everything you need, including optional add-ons from cupcakes to bubbly to custom tees (or even tanks or sweatshirts!), making it a personalized experience perfect for the guest of honor. (Bonus, they also do bachelorette parties, too!)
After your DivaDance class, it’s time to keep the Plano birthday party going! Your outfit’s planned, and now it’s time to get ready for a hot night out with a blowout and makeup service! BAM Beauty Bar offers a variety of options for groups from hair styling to makeup application and will have you looking gorgeous from head to toe. And The Hair Bar also offers styling, blowouts, and makeup application (full face and eyes only).
The Food
I do my hair toss, check my nails… baby, how you feelin’? Feelin’ good as hell! Once you’re ready (Lizzo would approve!), head on out for a bite before the big night out. The vibrant Legacy Food Hall features three floors, over 20 different food options — from fried chicken to barbecue to sushi — and a sprawling beer garden with live music on weekends. If Mexican is more your Plano birthday party bag, check out José (their blood orange frozen margs are a must) or Las Palmas Tex-Mex (get the queso, trust us). Another solid group dinner option includes Drake’s, a posh restaurant with an Old Hollywood feel (reservation recommended)! For locally sourced, Texas-to-table goodness, check out Haywire, featuring a 1st-floor whiskey bar, a 2nd-floor dining room, and a rooftop patio with adorable private tents. They also offer private dining spaces for larger groups.
The Nightlife
Craving a little nightlife for your Plano birthday party? You’re in luck! This Texas town has plenty of nightlife options, from rooftop bars to live music venues to dancing, dancing, and then dancing some more (show off that DivaDance routine you learned!).
For something low-key yet unique, the rustic Whiskey Cake Kitchen & Bar with its contemporary industrial vibe offers a craft whiskey cocktail menu (including flights!) — enjoy your drink on the rooftop patio, complete with cozy seating and stunning views of the city. If you’re still hungry, they also offer up delicious farm-to-table cuisine.
For wine lovers, Plano is bursting at its Texas seams with wine bars. Sixty Vines serves up New American bites in a spacious, airy atmosphere, along with several wines on tap worth trying, while CRÚ Food & Wine Bar is a must for Napa-style wines and fare, including stone-fired pizzas and cheese plates. In addition to a store with more than 1,200 wines to choose from, Buon Vino has a private tasting room fit for any wine lover’s Plano birthday party.
To end the night on a high note, head to Sambuca 360 for live music and dancing, located in the trendy Shops at Legacy in Plano. The nearby Scruffy Duffies also offers live entertainment, while the Plano House of Comedy showcases the best (and funniest) in stand-up comedy.
To live that bar and pub life, check out Shakertins, with all the craft cocktails, billiards, and good vibes (especially when happy hour rolls around). Other bars and pubs include the Holy Grail Pub for beer and burger die-hards, The Fillmore Pub for something a little more cozy, and Ringo’s Pub, complete with a spacious outdoor patio.
No matter where you party ’til the wee hours, make sure it’s a Plano birthday party to remember and you spend it with those you love most!
