We broil, we fry, we grill, we slice, we dice and we saute. Mrs. Schneider’s been dishing ‘em out for over 45 years (with help from family and friends).
We may not be fancy, just GOOD!

Schneider’s is a family tradition started in January 1960 in a “turn of the Century” Ice Cream Parlor on Clinton Avenue in Newark, NJ. Mom & Dad bought a Chocolate Candy Store/Ice Cream Parlor typical in any major New Jersey city. Originally opened as “Strubbe’s” and later known as “Brinkmann’s”. Dad was the one that learned the making of Chocolates, Candies and Ice Creams from Mr. Brinkmann. On Holidays, especially Valentines and Easter, there were lines out the door for his Chocolate Hearts and Rabbits.
Mom was encouraged to do the cooking and baking of lunch and dinner items at the request of other “Avenue” merchants.

When the family relocated the business to Avon-by-the-Sea in 1970, a new chapter opened. As the Chocolates were ‘retired’, Mom added more and more of her ‘Old World’ dishes that she and “Oma” used to cook. Mom still cooks every day and hasn’t looked back nor slowed down. She enjoys talking to her many customers, sometimes three or four generations of loyal customers visit with her.  She now has a very large "extended family".


COME FOR THE MEAL,
STAY FOR DESSERT


Check out our 100 year tradition of fountain treats made with homemade ice cream. Whether for nostalgia, or for the first time, go back to that time when sundaes, sodas, shakes, malts and banana splits were real. And were served in ice cream parlors by waitresses. And were brought to you at your table. No kidding! And the ice cream was homemade on the premises by the owner. TRUE! Well, you’ve found that place again, at SCHNEIDER’S (we just never stopped the old tradition - Mom wouldn’t let us!)
