The latest winter storm descends upon Austin, covering the city in ice, cold rains, and below-freezing temperature. With that in mind — the fact that Austin schools and colleges are canceled and flights in and out of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport are being delayed or canceled today — Eater is tracking all cold weather-related restaurant, bar, and food truck closings for the day, Tuesday, January 16.
Prep against the nasty weather with soup, ramen, hot chocolate, coffee, tea, hot cocktails, and if you do order delivery, tip really well. Be careful out there.
Note that this guide is only covering restaurants, bars, and food trucks that are either closed or delayed openings today because of the storm. Know of any other places that are affected by the weather today? Let Eater Austin know through the tipline.
