A BRIEF HISTORY
Before there was Magnolia Table, there was the Elite Cafe, a Waco-favorite diner that opened in 1919. The original location on Austin Avenue grew so popular that the owners opened a second location on the Waco Traffic Circle. After the infamous tornado of 1953, along with various renovations and ownership changes, both locations eventually closed.
Knowing the Elite's rich history, Chip and Joanna were hopeful that this Waco icon wasn't quite finished feeding locals and visitors alike. When they purchased the building and began its renovation, their priority was to preserve its history while also giving it a fresh start. The cafe's doors reopened in 2018—this time as our sit-down restaurant, Magnolia Table. You can watch the entire story unfold on Season 5 of Fixer Upper. We're so thankful you've taken part in this restaurant's next chapter. Cheers to time at the table!
