Outdoor movie night on the water featuring the film Nacho Libre, part of the Movies on the Lake series at Mozart's Coffee Roasters.
Mozart's Coffee Roasters is showing Nacho Libre on Thursday, August 13, as part of its Movies on the Lake series. The movie runs from 9 PM to 11 PM on the Lake Austin waterfront, where the coffee shop turns its deck into an open-air cinema under the stars every Thursday.
If you've never been, Mozart's is an in-house roaster and café that's been operating on the lake since 1993. Over the years it's grown to include live music, community events, and paddleboard rentals alongside the coffee. The movie night formula gathers early arrivals for live music and sunset views over the water, with themed concessions and specialty drinks inspired by the film. It's the kind of night that starts well before the movie actually begins.
Rather than sitting on the deck, you can watch from the water by renting a paddleboard, a tube, or a donut boat, though rentals are limited and often sell out. If you're planning to float, it's worth getting there early.
