Scott + Reid helped bring a beloved East Coast brand to Texas, delivering Abbott’s Custard’s first location in the state with a ground-up build in McKinney. Designed for speed, simplicity, and charm, the project balances small-footprint efficiency with thoughtful architectural details.
Built on a wood-frame structure, the shop includes both a walk-up window and a drive-thru lane—two key features that keep service moving for a quick-stop customer base. Inside, custom millwork, banquette seating, and a wood grid ceiling reflect the brand’s nostalgic feel while supporting a clean and functional layout. The fully operational clock tower—an Abbott’s signature—anchors the design and adds visual impact from the street.
With tight site constraints and high brand standards, the Scott + Reid team delivered a seamless build that preserves Abbott’s iconic identity while adapting it for a growing Texas market.
