Our Story


After over 20 years in St. Anton, owners Niall and James had an idea. Launching their own bar and restaurant in the heart of the town they love. Providing a hub for the community and a luxurious treat for visitors. Welcome to Café Schneider!

The best stories are told at the Bar

What a thrilling journey it has been to arrive at this very moment! From a young age I embraced the exhilarating world of skiing, and it was my father who sparked my passion and urged me to venture to St Anton.

The enchantment of St Anton captivated me from the begining and continues to captvate me even today. For over 30 years I have called St Anton my home, forging countless connections with intriguing individuals along the way. It is these fascinating characters that truly anchor me here!

Throughout my life, i have always been fueled by a fervor for delectable cuisine, exquisite beverages, and an ambiance that sets the stage for unforgettable experiences. Fortunate enough to work in various restaurants and bars across St Anton, destiny intervened when i serendipitously met buisness partner Niall Pomeroy and owner of the building Hannes Schneider. With shared values and a shared vision of an exceptional establishment, we joined forces and Hannes enabled me and Niall to create something which we think is extraordinary in St Anton.

Year after year we strive relentlessly to enhance our establishment, fueled by the heartfelt appreciation of our customers. As we gaze towards the furture, we remain devoted to helping St Anton maintain it´s position as one of the world´s foremost skiing destinations.” James Harding June 2023

Join our Team.

If you would like to join the Café Schneider team, we would love to hear from you. We are looking for potential employees who are passionate about hospitality but we are specifically looking for what may sound peculiar at first;

  • emotion junkies - those with the ability to recognise emotions. Restaurants are emotional places, we don’t really know why, but we are ready to go with the flow and keep the energy going,

  • thrill seekers - those who get adrenaline rushes in a hospitality environment, who see challenges as fun and know they have a team with them for the ride,

  • team players - hospitality is a wild ride, as you probably know, but we believe Phil Jackson said it best “the strength of the team is each individual member, the strength of each member is the team”,

So if you enjoy hospitality and are looking for new opportunities and team mates, please contact us at the following email address contact@cafe-schneider.at
