The Astor Center Wine and Food Experiences in New York City




Directly above Astor Wines & Spirits, we have built three unique spaces which together comprise a facility unlike anything else in the city – or the world, for that matter. We wanted to create an environment conducive to the sort of progressive thinking that has suited us so well in the past – to build a place that would facilitate exchanges between winemakers and wine drinkers; between Michelin-starred chefs and masters of the Manhattan apartment kitchen; between omnivores and herbivores; between legendary cookbook authors and razor-sharp restaurant bloggers; between politicians and pig farmers. More than just a place to take a wine class or watch a celebrity chef wield a blow-torch, at Astor Center we’re building a concept – a new approach to education, a new way of exchanging ideas, a new forum for discussing that which brings us together around the table.

Located in the impeccably restored landmark DeVinne Press Building, Astor Center is comprised of four distinct spaces:the Study, the Kitchen,the Galleryand the Lounge . Whether you are planning an elegant social event, a corporate training or gathering, an art showing, a filming session, or a host of other possibilities, Astor Center offers an array of exceptional options to create a memorable and effective event. Please contact Kathleen Laux
