Where Old Wine Meets the Fresh Market
Long Count is a chef-led wine restaurant where old wine meets the fresh market.
Located at 155 Avenue B in the East Village, our cellar looks to the past through thoughtfully aged wines, while our kitchen looks to the seasons with a market-driven menu that evolves each month. Together, they celebrate the many ways time shapes flavor.
Aged Wine, Open Access
At Long Count, every wine poured by the glass carries ten or more years of age.
The wine program, led by Overthrow Hospitality’s Partner & Wine Director Drew Brady, represents a deliberate departure from conventional aged-wine formats. Instead of museum-like reverence or inaccessible pricing, Long Count offers vintage wines in a casual, welcoming setting — most available by the glass.
Seasonal Cooking,
Deep Flavor
While our cellar preserves the past through thoughtfully aged wines, our kitchen celebrates the present through the changing seasons.
Led by Chef Haley Duren, the menu evolves each month in response to what's freshest and most inspiring at the Union Square Greenmarket. Preservation techniques, thoughtful sourcing, and careful preparation add depth without overshadowing the ingredients themselves, allowing each season to speak for itself.
Together, the food and wine tell two sides of the same story: one shaped by years, the other by the fleeting beauty of the moment.
A Space Tuned to Time
Candlelit and understated, Long Count is designed for lingering. An in-house vinyl collection fills the room with warm, analog sound — jazz, soul, ambient, garage rock, and forgotten classics — creating an atmosphere that feels lived-in rather than curated.
It’s a place for conversation, discovery, and a reassessment of what aged wine and fermented food can be when removed from formality.
In a city obsessed with the new, Long Count makes a case for patience — proving that when it comes to wine, food, and culture, the most meaningful experiences often come with age.
