Capt. Billy Whizzbang's is a Waco icon! They have absolutely delicious burgers and great fries (make sure you ask them to "Whizzbang" your fries!), as well as very good strawberry cream pies (the little individual ones!). A casual, diner atmosphere. The day that I closed on my house, my realtor recommended this place (because it's near my house), touting that they have the best burgers in Waco. I agree! It's a personal fav of mine (and my family when they come visit).

Pinewood Roasters is a local coffee-snob favorite. They have high quality coffee, espresso, and teas, as well as some baked goods (including Nightlife Donuts mmm), and you can often find some favorite Waco food trucks parked next to it. The baristas are great and totally non-coffee-snob friendly!

Like everything the Magnolia team does, their restaurant is so well done. You will probably have a wait, but even the wait there is pleasant! They have a covered seating area that has several fans, tables with umbrellas, a coffee/juice/pastry stand while you wait, as well as a little shop on the side that is air conditioned. The food is absolutely delicious and the decor and atmosphere are impeccable. Service is typical Magnolia quality-- outstanding.

Possibly my favorite Mexican restaurant in Waco. Fresh food that isn't too heavy or greasy. Great drinks. And if you sit on the front patio, you have a lovely view of the Silos!

reakfast/brunch/lunch. A huge menu. And they often have specials that are very good. Near the house, so away from downtown. Service can be iffy, but it's never been terrible and the food is always good.
