The upscale restaurant in Innsbruck
One place, one attitude
Who we are - and what we stand for.
The Arkadenhof is more than just an upscale restaurant in Innsbruck, it is a place for encounters, exchange and honest enjoyment. Family-run since time immemorial, we combine hospitality with quality awareness and a clear attitude in our restaurant in Innsbruck.
We don't want to stand still, we want to continue to develop - in culinary, human and social terms.
We offer finely tuned cuisine in an exceptional ambience for all those who appreciate good food, good company and an open, respectful atmosphere. Whether it's a business lunch, dinner with friends or a large-scale celebration: We see ourselves as both hosts and service providers with the aim of creating the best possible dining experience for every situation.
Our cuisine stands for quality and clarity. We prefer to work with products from the region - from partners who share our values. At the same time, we are open to international influences, creative ideas and new impulses. The Arkadenhof stands for a cuisine that tells its guests a story without pushing itself to the fore.
What makes us special is not just what's on the plate. It is the interplay of atmosphere, sincere service and the desire to connect people through food, conversation and interior design. Sustainability, fairness and appreciation towards our team are not just empty words, but part of our self-image.
As an upscale restaurant in Innsbruck, we don't understand "upscale" as being aloof, but as an invitation to feel at home in a special setting. The Arkadenhof wants to grow, pass on and help shape - in the city in which we are rooted and in an industry that is constantly reinventing itself.
Insights
The team in the Arkadenhof
Behind the "Café Arkadenhof" restaurant is a dedicated team with heart, experience and attitude. The restaurant is run by siblings Christina and Michael, who have both worked in the catering industry for many years. With the Arkadenhof, they have created a space in which they can experience gastronomy as it should be: authentic, sophisticated and at the same time human.
Head chef Jan Tielsch plays a central role. He completed his training in renowned international establishments such as the Hotel Adlon Kempinski in Berlin and the legendary Fat Duck in England. After working in top domestic restaurants, he now brings his experience, precision and creativity to our kitchen. For us, he is much more than just a chef, he is a real support with an eye for the big picture.
Our core team is complemented by long-standing colleagues in service and in the kitchen, who have become the backbone of the business with their commitment, reliability and warmth. Together we are what the Arkadenhof radiates: a real host family that works together with joy and responsibility every day.

History & Philosophy
The Arkadenhof has always been a meeting place - in the middle of Innsbruck and yet away from the ordinary. What began as a café with an inner courtyard has developed over the years into an upscale restaurant that remains true to its roots and yet is constantly growing.
As a family business, both continuity and change are important to us. We want to preserve what has stood the test of time and at the same time remain open to new ideas - in the kitchen, in service and in our role as hosts.
Our philosophy is based on three core values: quality, responsibility and togetherness. We cook with regional products, think sustainably and act fairly - towards our guests, our suppliers and our team.
We see gastronomy not only as a service, but also as a contribution to society: we bring people together, facilitate exchange and pass on values and knowledge.
For us, the Arkadenhof is more than just a restaurant - it is a living space that we continue to develop day by day. With attitude, heart and the ambition to offer our guests not just good food, but a real experience.
