About Us
Greetings from the CEO
Upping hospitality and embracing diversity is what we strive for at Counter & Bodega. We're a family owned and operated full service sit down restaurant and bar located in the heart of Chelsea, New York. We feature Pan-Latin comfort food with a heavy Puerto Rican influence. Having resided in Manhattan, NYC for over 20 years (12 of those years spent in Hell's Kitchen) I was able to recognize that the young natives who grew up in the area have developed more global palettes. We provide a cozy and welcoming setting offering excellent service, signature libations, and unique menu items, coupled with a rotation of weekly and daily specials. Counter & Bodega is a privately owned company.
The décor for Counter & Bodega features a 20 foot marble bar, slate accented construction, and beautiful deep blue tufted leather seating with sounds of Salsa hits and Latin jazzy house music playing in the background, creating an atmosphere that is inviting, comfortable, and cheerful. Chelsea still reflects the ethnic and social diversity of Midtown's demographic. Hence, we would like to attract all groups and fill the void that currently exists in this neighborhood - that void being the
Counter & Bodega combines great style, authentic and savory food, exemplary service, and genuine hospitality to create a truly unique experience.
Our vision is to have a positive impact on the Chelsea Community while providing them with an awesome and memorable dining experience for our neighbors, locals, out-of-towners, vendors, physicians, professors, graduate students, business clientele and other members of the community to enjoy good food, drinks, and each other’s company. As the community becomes more diverse our goal is to connect these groups together threw our food and spaceto create new bonds and relationships. We opened our doors to the public on October 1st, 2018. Looking forward to seeing and serving you!
Regards,
Sophie, CEO/Owner
