Ski Shores Café – An Austin Eatery for the Whole Family


For over 50 years, boaters and jet skiers have pulled right up to the dock to enjoy refreshments and classic Austin fare while taking in the relaxing views at Ski Shores Café. Now, local business partners Rick Engel and Mark Turner have reinvigorated this eatery, offering boat slips, a new bar, live music several days a week, several flatscreen TVs, free WiFi, dockside delivery direct to your boat and more.
Along with the new delicious culinary offerings (and the classic fare), Ski Shores will now offer a wait staff for table seating, a gated playscape area for kids, a game room and so much more. As Rick Engel, Restaurant Freedome CEO and co-founder says, “We are delighted to revive and update an Austin institution, keeping the great feel of Ski Shores intact, as a great place for families, boaters and our Lake Austin neighbors. This has always been a special place, and now it adds faster service and expanded attractions.”
