Gate-side tacos and tequila shots in Terminal E
2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar sits in Terminal E at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, so it mainly serves American and low-cost carriers using E. It’s post-security, which means it works for anyone already airside in E without another TSA check. Signage just lists it as “2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar,” so look for the taco graphics rather than a big chain logo.
The menu leans on tacos, tequila, and standard bar drinks, matching the name 2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar on the board. Expect typical airport pricing: cocktails often hit the low-to-mid teens in USD, and taco plates usually run more than fast food in the same terminal. It’s table service, so factor in extra time if your departure from an E-gate is within 45 minutes.
Hours at DFW Terminal E restaurants commonly track the first and last banks of flights, roughly around 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 or 10:00 p.m., and 2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar generally follows that pattern. Early-morning tequila feels aggressive before a 6:30 a.m. departure, but coffee and soft drinks are typically available. If you land after 10:00 p.m. into E, have a backup plan in case the bar has already closed with the final departures.
Expect the usual airport sports-bar setup: TVs over the bar, high-tops, and two-tops packing the footprint. In Terminal E, seating near busy gates can fill quickly during peak departures around 7:00–9:00 a.m. and 4:00–7:00 p.m., so 2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar can double as overflow seating when those banks hit. Tabs close to your gate number and boarding time, not the moment you sit down.
Tip: if your flight leaves from a distant E-gate, give yourself at least 15 minutes to walk from 2.0 Taco & Tequila Bar to the end of Terminal E, especially around the 30-minute boarding mark.
