Dropped by here on a Sunday since most things were closed. It’s a bunch of boutiques in one area, with a lot of cute little trinkets and local items for sale. Staff was great and helpful.

This location is under renovation. They are temporarily located at 924 Austin Ave about 3 to 5min drive away.You will like what they offer if you are shopping for clothings, fashion accessories and baby stuff. I would say visit only if you have spare time.

Great place to visit on a rainy afternoon, with lots of shopping upstairs and numerous restaurants as well. plenty of parking, though it is marked as 2 hour only. all the shops are connected so you can pick up things from any shop and pay once. fitting rooms and rest rooms are available. items are pricey and most could be found online for cheaper, but a fun, cute place to wander around on a rainy day or on your drive to austin

Spice is a must when I visit Waco. Cutest place with the largest selection. And the stairs are the perfect size for my feet 🤣

This is a neat place to shop. They had tons of different vendors there. Something for everyone. We stayed at the Hilton and walked over. The staff was so friendly and helpful. There are several places to eat around the block. This place is a must see when touring Waco.

Ive been going to Spice since before I lived in Waco, so for about 10 years. Its never quite the same from one time to the next, so its always a fun new experience. I actually really liked their temporary location theyre at right now due to the damage at the usual location. I think its really cool to be able to shop and support so many local small business owners and artisans in one place.

Really enjoy visiting Spice Village. There are so many interesting items from different vendors: clothing, crafts, gifts, toys... I loved the retro style toys for kids with their vintage packaging and all the options available for home decorating including candles, wall art and signs. Definitely a great place to go shopping.

I dont really have a reason not to give it five stars. Large amount of clothes, yes. Large amount of Knick knacks, yes. Huge kids area with toys and baby items, oh yes that was my favorite. A bit overpriced, well of course what do you expect 🤷🏼‍♀️ its Waco, and people have to make a living somehow. Youll definitely lose track of time so do yourself a favor, set your timer, youll thank me later. They also rent out a space for parties, not sure on the hours allotted, but for $200 I hope its not just an hour 🤔

I had the reviews about Spice Village and saw that it was considered one of Wacos top places to visit. I was so disappointed. First the Spice Village was at a temporary location. Secondly, it was a boutique. It seemed like a cute place to shop but most items I could find in my local boutiques.

Honestly i enjoyed this place more so then the magnolia silos. They have a whole lot of stuff here. Lots of clothes, decorative stuff, and antiques. Still a little pricey but top quality.

A shopping mecca all under one roof. Home decor, clothing, jewelry, furniture, gifts and more! Get ready for sensory overload. :) Its in a temporary location. Was a little hard to find the store at first, its right next to Stumpys. Plenty of parking around. Have fun!

I adore visiting Spice Village when I come to Waco! I could literally spend hours in there. So many neat, unique, speciality items.Adorable clothes, cute coffee mugs, lots of nick nacks, decor like crazy.If you cant find anything to buy you arent a true shopper.It is a must for me each trip to Waco!Dont go on a Saturday unless you like lines and crowds.

Review №24

Great place to walk around and look at all the different stuff they have. There is a a wide range of items from different merchandise. They have kids and adults clotheshing, gifts, decorating items, house stuff, seasonal and Christmas items. There are restaurants near buy you can walk to and some hotels. Located in downtown waco, this place is definitely a great place to visit while in waco. Check this place out, you will not be disappointed.

Review №25

I wanted to give this place the benefit of the doubt for their extremely rude and TERRIBLE customer service skills, but after reading review after review complaining about the same thing I can see it’s just a never ending problem. I’m not from Texas, and saw that the hotel I am staying at recommended going to spice village. Thought I’d give it a shot. I saw that they closed pretty early, nbd. Went over there and because they were closing in about 10 minutes I decided not to go in, rather poke my head in to just look around and see if it was worth coming back another day. A sales associate standing near the cash register glared at me and said “uhhh we’re like closing in 10 minutes sooo you can’t shop…” in the absolute rudest tone and in the most unprofessional way. No hello or anything, just a downright rude infliction and tone. Imagine Regina George from mean girls but worse. Meanwhile there were other people browsing the store! Needless to say that, no, it is not worth coming back; not because of their merchandise but because of the awful customer service. Coming from someone who is worked in customer service do better. Seeing as this has been a recurring issue for years someone needs to fix it and put the store employees in check.

Must go to when in Waco!! Lots of items you cant find anywhere else or only online. Home made items too. Something for men women and kids. Places for those who dont want to shop to sit. Youll want at least 30 minutes to browse or longer. Nice cafe below to wait at as well.

When you first walk you there are stars going up to the 2nd floor where Spice Village is. There is an elevator but I wouldn’t call it wheelchair or stroller friendly. There’s so much merchandise and customer, everything for sell is cute and most everyone is nice but there’s just not enough room to move around, you have to go with the flow of the crowd and if someone is going the other way then someone has to push themselves into the shelves to get out of the way.There where so many things I wanted to get. I found something for everyone in my life that made me think of them, but’s it incredibly expansive. Example, a basic plastic beed, stretchy, bracelet $35AMAZING place to experience at least once, but the price, crowds and lack of moving space. I don’t want to do it again.

I didn’t know what to expect when I first heard about this place. I first thought this was an Asian market based off the name. Boy, was I pleasantly wrong.Ascending up the escalator, my eyes are inundated with so many things; I didn’t know where to start! If you need to buy someone a gift, no matter the gender, age, or personal preference, they will have what you need. You need to buy someone who enjoys a “rustic” feel? They got it! You need to buy someone who is the jokester in the family? They got it! You need to buy someone who has a child or baby? They got it! I think you get the picture.I definitely will recommend this place to anyone who visits Waco.

I have made an annual trip here to shop with my colleagues and then to have lunch at Ninfas Mexican Restaurant on the first floor. There is soo much to shop for with all kinds of unique gifts, accessories, clothes, shoes, jewelry, candles, soaps, cards, pictures, decorations, wine, olive oils, etc. - old things, new things- its amazing! They do have an elevator for folks who prefer it over the stairs. The ladies are very friendly and very helpful. Prices are average to high on some things.Ninfas Mexican Restaurant is always delicious - time and again- on every item I have eaten there. My favorites are the Crawfish Enchiladas and the Lump Crab Burrito. Drinks are awesome too! Prices are great.

I went shopping there today with my wife, on her birthday, and after walking all the way up those stairs Im stopped by a young girl and Im told I have to wear a mask, this is nothing new! I informed her that I have a medical condition and I actually have a note from my dr saying I cant wear a mask due to my medical condition! She replied with, we dont do that here! Wow, you dont honor peoples medical conditions? I said so Im fairly sure what you are doing is illegal! So, she leans over to the girl at the register and asks, are we allowed to do that and the girl even says, no you have to wear a mask regardless! Since Ive already checked with ADA, I know yall are wrong! So, I asked, dont you want to see my drs note and she said no! I went to the Silos next and they asked if I had a mask, I informed them of my drs note and they said not a problem! I informed them of how I was treated at your store and they also said that sounded illegal! Yall might want to have your young girls get educated before yall get a lawsuit! They should check with the management before guessing! Ill never step foot in your store again because you clearly dont care about your customers!

Something for everyone. So many options for everyone. From candles, and clothes, to snacks and decor. A little on the expensive side but worth it to have it all in one spot. Id recommend anyone visiting Waco to stop in. Make sure youve got time to look through it all.

Went here recently and I never wanted to leave...two floors filled with beautiful things--from childrens clothing that are one of a kind, to handmade rustic decor, to candles, to clothing that are really unique, and on and on. Best thing of all was finding way at the back tucked behind some boxes a strange cardboard lifesize figure of Donald Trump (before the election) and we of course HAD to take pictures with it.

I thought the store had a few strange but satisfying items. My main issue was price point, as everything seemed excessively expensive. Probably the most infuriating thing was a collection of old books that had the pages unbound and pictures removed to be sold individually.

Love this place! Ive been coming here for quite a few years and they always have something (well lots of things really) that are interesting and unique. Bought their Spice Village candle wax and now my whole apartment smells delicious. The diversity of the different little stores means there is always something new and exciting to look at. There is something for everyone up there.

Spice Village has something for everyone! I was able to knock out a bit of Christmas shopping. It’s also just a fun place to browse – from boutique clothing to quirky antiques. Aisles and aisles of vendors. Leave yourself plenty of time. The market is located within easy walking distance of many other shops and restaurants. This is a must-do if you are visiting Waco!

If you’re looking for new, this is the place for you. If you’re looking for old and unique, not so much. I was under the impression that this was more of a vintage/antique market. It’s actually mostly new home decor items made to look vintage and boutique clothing. There was one booth (Nailed It) in the back corner that I enjoyed, as they had real vintage items.

Cool place to find unique fun gifts for many people. Get there early to avoid the crowds. Didnt buy anything because the checkout line was too long. They should have people walking around with those portable credit card machines so you dont need to stand in a line. Otherwise, its a cool place, worth checking out. Cafe downstairs was the best part of the whole experience.
