Any Mac app for quick menu bar access to clips of text?

Pretty hard to go past the native Notes app. Your question about menu bar access is a little trickier. Obviously you could put it on the dock. In macOS Big Sur you can add it to the Control Centre which is on the Menu Bar. For multiple media types, pictures, text, web links etc it's pretty hard to beat, syncs across devices and has a search function too.
You could try Tot. It's free on the App store.
Another thing you can do is add the script menu to the menu bar (by ticking a box in Script Editor preferences). It doesn't have to be used for launching scripts. Any number of text documents can be put in the Scripts folder for quick menu bar access (and folders, aliases, etc).

I would also add a thumbs up to 'Tot'. Kinda of a dumb name and it doesn't do anything particularly special, but for a menu bar notes app it works well.
