Can’t-Miss Experiences

Best Breakfast & Brunch in Austin

Austin’s breakfast culture is defined by one thing above all: the breakfast taco. A flour tortilla, scrambled eggs, and whatever else fits — bacon, potato, chorizo, migas, barbacoa. Every Austinite has a favorite taco spot, and defending that choice is taken as seriously as defending your BBQ allegiance.

Breakfast Tacos

Veracruz All Natural (multiple locations) — The consensus best breakfast taco in Austin. The migas taco (scrambled eggs with crispy tortilla strips, cheese, and salsa) is the city’s signature breakfast item. Multiple food truck and brick-and-mortar locations.

Best Restaurants in Austin

Austin is a food city disguised as a music city. The BBQ is world-famous (and worth every minute in line), the taco scene is as deep as any border town’s, and the food truck culture has spawned some of the most creative cooking in the South.

BBQ — The Main Event

Franklin Barbecue — The most famous BBQ in America. Aaron Franklin’s brisket has been called the best in Texas — which is to say, the best on earth. The line starts at 6 AM for an 11 AM opening. They sell out daily. Is it worth a 4-hour wait? For the brisket, yes. For the pork ribs, absolutely. Pro tip: Order online for pickup to skip the line (when available).

San Antonio is a Tex-Mex city at its core — the puffy taco was invented here, the breakfast taco culture rivals Austin’s, and the Mexican food traditions run deeper than almost any city north of the border. But the Pearl District has turned San Antonio into a serious contemporary food destination too.

Tex-Mex & Mexican

Mi Tierra Café & Bakery (Market Square) — Open 24 hours, 365 days a year since 1941. Festive decorations year-round, mariachi bands, and a bakery case that stretches forever. The enchiladas and breakfast plates are classics. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit.
