Magnolia Market, Magnolia Press and Silos Baking Co are located at the Silos which is located at 601 Webster Ave. In addition, the garden area with the Magnolia Seed & Supply shop is located inside the gated area that is called ‘the Silos.’ This also includes many outdoor spaces for eating or hanging out.
Visit the Silos in Waco:
- Magnolia Market – main store that sells home decor, florals, t-shirts and souvenirs plus outdoor spaces like food truck alley with Magnolia Table & Silos Baking Co food trucks, pavilion and lawn with outdoor games
- Magnolia Seed & Supply – garden area on the Silos grounds with small shop, greenhouse, flower beds
- Silos Baking Co – bakery located next to main entrance of Magnolia Market
- Magnolia Press – coffee shop, located within the same block as Magnolia Market, inside & outside sitting
Then, drive to:
- Magnolia Table – breakfast and lunch only restaurant, will need to drive or ride Waco Shuttle, 2132 S Valley Mills Dr, Waco
- Little Shop on Bosque – Joanna’s original shop with discount Magnolia products, will need to drive, 3801 Bosque Boulevard, Waco
Coming soon… but you can still drive by:
- Magnolia Home furniture show room. – Located behind Magnolia Press. From the outside, it looks complete. However, the inside is not decorated or stocked. So, I assume it will be included in the grand re-opening of the Silos, which was originally planned for October 2020.
- New additions to the Silos: Construction is happening now where the former Silos parking lot stood. Basically, it is includes the rest of the city block where the Silos are located. This includes a concession stand, retail spaces, whiffle ball court, an outdoor patio with fireplace & water features, new restrooms, and a reconstructed Waco historical church surrounding another open lawn area. You can see complete plans for this space at Magnolia’s website, here.
- Magnolia Hotel – Located about 5 blocks from Magnolia Market at 701 Washington Ave. However, renovations of the former Waco Grand Karem Shrine building will not be complete till 2021.
- Cottonland Castle – Located at 3300 Austin Ave in Waco. However, work on the castle has not begun.
