When the perfect summer day comes along – sunny, clear, and not too hot – we’ve only got one thing on our minds: getting out on the lake. And as you rush out of the house, it’s easy to forget the most important meal of the day. But don’t worry, Northshore Marina at the Hollows has you covered with the best breakfast tacos near Lake Travis.
Coffee and Breakfast Tacos on Lake Travis: Our 2026 Menu
In 2023, Northshore Marina’s ship store started offering your Lake Travis breakfast tacos straight from Austin’s own, Smokey Mo’s BBQ, and they quickly became a fan favorite and a beloved Jonestown summer tradition! From spring break to mid-September, you can stop by our ship store every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for a delicious breakfast that blends traditional Austin, Texas BBQ with Mexican flavors – all for just $4.99.
Our 2026 breakfast taco menu includes:
- Bacon, egg, and cheese
- Sausage, egg, and cheese
- Brisket, egg, and cheese
- Potato, egg, and cheese
- Bean and cheese
But what’s a breakfast without coffee? You can also grab some hot java from the ship store to complete your meal.
Our breakfast tacos are extremely popular, and they sell out quickly, so we recommend stopping by between 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. if you want to make sure you grab one. Just walk down the dock from your boat, pick up a couple tacos, and head out on the lake!
Northshore Marina’s breakfast tacos are perfect for a quick bite before a day of fishing, cruising, or partying on the lake. Take it from the professionals – Matt, Northshore Marina’s operations manager, recommends the brisket, egg, and cheese for their rich, smoky flavor. Charter captains love our breakfast tacos, too. For them, there’s nothing better than chowing down: “I love how easy it is to grab a taco, and there’s a great variety to choose from!”
Meet Our Taco Partner: Smokey Mo’s Texas BBQ

What makes our breakfast tacos so special? The authentic, all-American Texas BBQ from Smokey Mo’s. We’re proud to partner with this local brand to bring breakfast tacos to Lake Travis.
Today, Smokey Mo’s is a Texas franchise with over 22 locations, but in the beginning, it was a hometown barbecue joint run by Morris “Mo” Melchor and his wife, Lisa, in Cedar Park. And that family tradition remains strong – all five of their sons have worked for Smokey Mo’s in some capacity. Plus, Smokey Mo’s Texas BBQ still uses Mo’s signature brisket rub and Lisa’s creamed corn recipe.
Smokey Mo’s remains true to its Austin, Texas BBQ roots. Even as they’ve expanded, they still smoke all their meat in-house with Post Oak wood (the wood choice of all Texas BBQ masters), and their signature brisket stays in the pit for at least 12 hours. They are also committed to giving back to the broader Austin, Texas community, from donating to local organizations to sponsoring the Cedar Fest Cook-Off every year.
Simply put, Smokey Mo’s is the perfect partner for Northshore Marina because they share our values: premium quality products, dedication to our local community, and exceptional customer service.
