IN THE VP SPOTLIGHT


On The Waterfront Cafe is one of Venice's destination establishments. If you live, work or visit Venice, chances are you have sipped a frosty glass of hefe-weizen while sitting on the boardwalk front patio of On The Waterfront Cafe.

Today, we are going to learn the story of On The Waterfront Cafe, and get to know its owner and founder, Stefan Bachofner.

Stefan bought On the Waterfront Cafe on Dec. 23 1994 and started the Swiss themed beer garden immediately after.

21 years into it, On the Waterfront Cafe is going strong.



Bachofner's passion for great food and beer started when he was young. "Growing up in Switzerland, you are bordered by four countries, there are several different languages and cultures and a whole lot of different food to be influenced by. " Taking the best of the best from it, Stefan created On the Waterfront Cafe.
