While in Waco, we had to visit Magnolia Silos. There were a lot of close streets getting ready for a marathon but we found reasonable parking. This area has a lot of shopping in small shops as well as a big store. A very crowded bakery with pretty good food, some food trucks that had good rice bowls and mac n cheese, and a lot of outdoor areas to sit and people watch in. It is a fun place to go if you like shopping and hanging out with a lot of people. I would avoid special events.
