Are you a Plano foodie? Visit Plano, the destination marketing department for the City of Plano, has brought back its popular Taste of Plano Foodie Pass and is celebrating 5 years of foodie fun! The award-winning mobile program is designed to broaden consumer awareness of the many delicious dining options available in Plano. This year’s program builds upon four years of success with more coupons and prizes and a new exciting prize sweepstakes.
The FREE, mobile-friendly program features a “passport” showcasing over 80 Plano eateries (and growing) offering small and large plates for every palate as well as inventive drinks and decadent desserts. Many restaurants also offer special discounts and other perks with their purchases. Find a list of participating restaurants here.
Through September 30, 2025, consumers simply go to the landing page at visitplano.com/tasteofplano to sign up for free. A link is then sent to the user’s mobile phone, which opens the passport and directs the user to add the button icon to their home screen for easy access any time. Don’t miss this important step! (There are no downloads or bulky apps that take up phone space.)
Then, the fun begins! Users can filter by cuisine type or browse the entire list of participating restaurants for a tempting variety of food and special offers that can be redeemed when ordering. Once the passholder arrives at their chosen eatery, they check in on their mobile phone using the saved passport link.
Passholders accumulate points for checking-in at participating restaurants and redeeming coupons, then those points can be cashed in for awesome prizes provided by Visit Plano, such as drink tumblers, t-shirts, portable speakers, and travel mugs.
Lastly, after checking-in to 20 restaurants, users will be automatically entered into the Fit for a Foodie sweepstakes. The first-place winner will receive a complimentary mixology class for 6 people at the Renaissance Dallas Plano Legacy West, plus $200 in gift cards ($600 value). The second-place winner will receive a Lone Star Food Tour gift card for 4 people to participate in a Downtown Plano food tour ($436 value). And the third-place winner will receive a My French Recipe gift card for 2 people to participate in a French cooking class ($200 value).
"The Taste of Plano Foodie Pass has become a beloved tradition, showcasing the incredible culinary diversity our city has to offer," said Visit Plano Assistant Director Millerann Moya. "Not only does it highlight local restaurants, but it also brings our community together and drives meaningful economic impact by encouraging both residents and visitors to explore Plano’s vibrant food scene."
