![]() We tried their Texas Pecan coffee and liked it so much, we bought a bag of it to take on the road with us. The lines were short here and there was plenty of seating available both inside and on their back patio. Magnolia Press is Chip and Joanna’s latest renovation, a beautifully designed coffee shop located right down the street from the silos. Instead, we went to Magnolia Press for coffee. There are lots of restaurants around the Magnolia Silos, so if the food trucks aren’t your thing, we recommend going to one of these places.Īfter our lunch, we wanted to get cupcakes at Silos Baking Co., the bakery on the silos property, but the line to get in was down the block. On the weekends, they have concerts, so it would have been a fun place to go back to if we had time. The food was good, reasonably priced, and they had plenty of seating. ![]() Instead of getting something from one of the food trucks, we headed to a place a block away called The Backyard Bar. We also found the prices to be pretty high. There are several food trucks located on the silos property, but they all had really long lines and were sold out of items. It would have been even more beautiful! The Backyard Bar and Magnolia Press I would love to come back in the spring once everything was in bloom. The garden was so pretty and so carefully thought out. In front of the store, there are tons of flower beds which really made me miss my small garden in Philly. This is a small store that sells gardening tools and seeds for your garden. □Īlso on the silos property is Magnolia Seed and Supply. This is a time where being a digital nomad really paid off. I could have spent a lot more time in the market and probably would have bought more things if I actually had a house to put them in. I bought a few t-shirts and one of Jimmy Don’s metal signs to give to my parents (they are building a new house in Nevada). The prices for items were a little high, but that was to be expected. The market was very large and designed exactly how you would imagine it to be. There is a ton of outdoor seating and open areas where families can play games and enjoy themselves. There were employees all over the place to help you with any questions and we never once felt rushed. The silos are closed on Sundays, so we can only imagine how crowded it could get on a Saturday afternoon.Įven though it was pretty busy, the staff did a great job to make everyone feel welcome. If possible, we recommend going on a weekday. We didn’t take into account that the Monday we went was President’s Day, so schools were closed and people had the day off. ![]() We heard that the silos get very busy, so we thought it would be best to go on a Monday and try to avoid some of the crowds. This was a nice surprise because we were able to park our car and walk around Waco. When I watched Fixer Upper, it always seemed like the silos were far away from everything, but in reality, they are right in the middle of the city. One thing that surprised me was just how close the Magnolia Silos were to downtown Waco. The Magnolia Silos & MarketĬhip added this heart to the silos for Joanna on Valentine’s Day.Īfter dropping off our things at the hotel, we headed to the Magnolia Silos to check out the market and grab a bite to eat. Here’s what we saw during the 2 days we were in Waco, TX. ![]() Waco is right in the middle of these two cities, so we’d be driving right by. So when we decided to spend time in both Austin and Dallas during our month in Texas, I knew we had to carve out a few days to check out Waco as well. Knowing what’s it’s like to run a business with your spouse, I admire them for what they created and find all they do so inspiring. I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m a bit obsessed with Chip and Joanna and the business they’ve created. I’ve seen every episode of their show multiple times, have read their books, and have made several recipes from Joanna’s cookbook, Magnolia Table (those biscuits…). Like so many people, I got hooked on Chip and Joanna Gaines and the beautiful home restorations featured on the show. Waco, Texas wasn’t a place I really had thought about until I started watching Fixer Upper on HGTV. Love Fixer Upper and Chip and Joanna Gaines? So do we! Here’s what we saw during our trip to Waco, TX and the Magnolia Silos.
