Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe on Lake Austin TEMPORARILY closes its doors
Posted: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 12:53 PM - 14,382 Readers
By: Addie Broyles and Mike Sutter
When news broke in late December that Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe on Lake
Austin was closing, groans of disappointment could be heard on Internet food
forums: "Major bummer. Another unique Austin place bites the dust,"
one Yelp commenter said.
The good news for fans of dockside dining is that they are only closing for renovations, and a remodeled Ski Shores Cafe will re-open in April, 2010, at the same address - 2905 Pearce Road.
Fore more information on the remodeled Ski Shores Cafe, click here.
The restaurant building is closed for repairs and maintenance until a new
tenant takes over, likely in the early spring, said Fowler, whose father,
Marion Fowler, first built a restaurant at Ski Shores in 1954.
We reported the closing of Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe in Food Matters after an
e-mail from George and Dianne Levy, who leased the Ski Shores building from
the Fowlers. "After a 13-year presence on Lake Austin, the Levy family
has decided to close its doors," the e-mail said. "It was a
wonderful run."
This Austin favorite has been open since 1954
Commodore’s Pepperoni Pizza
To see pictures of Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe:
Plenty of space to park the boat, about a 5 minute boat ride
from the 360 bridge. You can also drive up to Ski Shores in your car
and pick up a pizza order.
Order at the counter and they will call out your name on the
loudspeaker when your food is ready. If you order a pizza, they will
give you a number and bring the pizza to your table. Beer is $4!
