How we checked Taco Cabana's hours
Based on 12 store pages checked in October 2026 (San Antonio, Austin, Kyle, Houston, Fort Worth, Webster, Waxahachie, El Paso): all opened at 5 or 6 AM. Five listed 'Open 24 hours' on some days: three San Antonio stores (Friday through Sunday; two of them close at 2 AM and one at midnight Monday through Wednesday) and the Austin (Pleasant Valley) and Kyle (I-35) stores (Saturday and Sunday; midnight close Monday through Wednesday). The other seven, in Houston, Fort Worth, Webster, Waxahachie and El Paso, closed between 10 PM and midnight. Store pages show a rolling weekly schedule and do not split dining room and drive-thru hours; the San Antonio Report (Dec 2024) said some newer stores close the dining room around 10 PM but keep the drive-thru open until midnight. The menu has a breakfast section but no breakfast end time is published, so we list no breakfast hours.
