Ski Shores Cafe, Barton Springs Road Location. Alive & Open!



The legendary Ski Shores Cafe of actual Lake Austin lore, love, fame, and embraceable, easy ambiance now has another more ATX friendly location on Barton Springs Road. Located adjacent to upcoming the Eastciders brewery, Ski Shores Cafe is open, guest friendly and awesome. 

My girlfriend and I stopped in for the first time yesterday during our Town Lake Trail Bike Ride. Every other time I'd been near the  Ski Shores Barton Springs Road Cafe's proximity, the outdoor patio had been bustling with happy talking customers. Ski Shores Cafe on Barton Springs Road finally introduces the ATX city slicker folks, to the ideal, peaceful, causal Lake Austin vibe, boat owner mentality, and Lake Austin love, recreational Lake folk have known about and loved for decades, literally decades. 

Anybody still remember the PIER on Lake Austin? Anybody? (R.I.P)  Click here for the old Pier Closing  article.

Although the Barton Springs location is lacking actual waterfront sounds, vibes and views, it makes up for it with a friendly, attentive waitstaff, tap beers, a full bar, decor, and a full menu of burgers, appetizers, and fried catfish and shrimp.

 GVM gives the experience a solid A-grade. 

So if you don't own a boat or can't make it to Lake Austin, swing by Ski Shores Cafe on Barton Springs Road for the Lake Austin ATX city style experience.
