Description

Pinewood sits under a giant post oak on Austin Avenue, two halves split by a courtyard—coffee on one side, beer on the other. Inside, sunlight slides across concrete and wood, grinders hum, and the day drifts from americanos to IPAs without missing a beat.

But the real story isn’t the drinks. It’s the parking lot across the street—a decade-long standoff that turned from rivalry into a rare act of cooperation. What began as a feud over asphalt ended with a patch of green and a quiet reminder that in Waco, peace costs what it costs.
