Clean. Reliable. Does the job.

The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.

Trendy drinks, but food consistency lacking.

The Alchemist Bar and Restaurant tries for a trendy vibe, but it’s a mixed bag. While some patrons loved the creative cocktails and attentive service from folks like Lewis and Aaron, others felt let down by the chaotic bottomless brunch experience. Rebecca had a decent time, praising the team’s handling of the busyness, while Drizzy was all about the food’s flavor and presentation. But don’t get too excited; Faye had a decent meal marred by cocktail drama, and Freya was left underwhelmed by service snafus and cold food.

It’s a stylish place for a night out, but be prepared for potential hiccups. If you’re there for the drinks and atmosphere, you’ll likely have a good time, but if food consistency matters to you, you may want to hold off until they sort their act out. The Alchemist is a safe choice, but just don’t expect perfection.
