I love this place I had such a back yard feel to it, they always have a great selection of beers and food.
Blue Raspberry, Guava and Coconut do not mix. The redbull soda was disgusting. I chose blue raspberry and asked to be surprised, let’s just say I was surprised by the disgusting combination
Great service. Great coffee. Great selection of freshly made foods. Highly recommend the reindeer burger. And the smoked salmon burrito.
We were here back in June of 2022 and had breakfast sandwiches. They were very good and the girl working was very friendly and helpful. Good place to stop for a quick breakfast.
I've been on the hunt for a proper breakfast burrito in Anchorage for a while and I've found my spot. It's really tasty, a ton of food for a great price. Really good dirty chai too!
Oh my God amazing food. My hat really goes off to this place. Their reindeer ANYTHING is worth getting. I've had crunch wrap, nachos and cheese fries and they all just made me want to go back for more. My mouth is watering just thinking about them honestly. I'll probably eventually get through the menu. The staff is always super sweet and friendly and definitely worth tipping.
Good pulled espresso drinks. Quirky restroom and ICP Juggalo Ronald behind the counter. What more needs be stated?
Went to the Hospital location at Alaska Regional Hospital asked lady for no ice and told her the drink tasted like too much syrup asked her to go off the Lotus she said she will but it’s rude I didn’t like the way she made my drink she filled the rest with water I said that was fine instead of soda water. She asked me to leave and go somewhere else if I don’t like her drinks and she’s the manager. Paid $7.00 and $2.00 tip what a rip off!
I love coming heret. The halibut fish and chips are everything you would hope for. This time I got the Reindeer Crunch Wrap and let me tell you! You NEED to eat this! It is the perfect combination of an Alaskan staple and comfort food. And if that's not for you, there are plenty of other options. The whole establishment has a nice vibe and I've never had to wait to grab a seat. Seriously, come grab a beer and some of this food, it's absolutely worth the price!
Food is amazing, Great flavor and made fresh. Quick service, great price. Came here for a date night and it is now a regular spot for us.
AK Alchemist was our go to place for breakfast for two mornings on a recent pre cruise visit to Anchorage. Really enjoyed the Reindeer sausage breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito. Had dinner here one night and had the Halibut tacos and Halibut quesadia. They were okay, would have liked more Halibut in each. All the staff that served us in the morning and evening were super friendly. Prices were also good in comparison to other local restaurants. Place was a bright spot for us as we were stuck in a dingy Ramada Inn a street over.
Awesome breakfast burritos and coffee to get going in the morning. Did the 1/2 pound version but they have a 1 pounder if you're starving. One of the better places in Anchorage. I'll be back
Since moving nearby my wife has gone here almost every day and brings home some of the best food in town every time, the coffee is great but the breakfast burritos are even better! The service is a little slow but that's to be expected since they make all the food as its ordered, its so fresh and tasty!
The server was rude and made me uncomfortable. I think she was high or intoxicated. We waited 45 min for fish and chips, left before it was ready as i couldn't wait any longer.. The server was licking her fingers after handing us drinks. I was excited to try this place and it was just a really bad experience.
Go here for the experience as much as anything. The good and beer were fine, but it was the ambiance and quirky servers that made it fun. I mean, I'm not sure the owner wanted us to have the kind of experience we did, but they're his people.
What a wonderful dining experience we (2 in our party) had this last Saturday at AK Alchemist on 4th Avenue. We were greeted and served by Kelcie, she was a breath of fresh air, with a kind, and cheerful personality (and just gorgeous). Our reindeer and halibut were cooked to perfection (thank you to the chef), the portions of both of our entrees was too much for us to eat so we both had leftovers, and the price for the entrees (amount of food we received) was less than we have paid at several other equal type of restaurants. We sat outside and other than some sporadic loud traffic, it was absolutely enjoyable sitting in the beautiful weather, with a fabulous server and dining on delicious reindeer, halibut and the best (fresh, crispy, hot) french fries. Thank you AK Alchemist for making our dining with your restaurant an A++++++ experience!
Great coffee, no burned shots. Super nice and friendly staff. I come here every time I'm in the area since we live in the valley.
Okay, so… let me preface this by explaining that I actually really like the coffee and food at this place. However, at the time of writing (04/17/22) I have been there within 10 minutes after opening and the cook has had to politely tell me I couldn’t get anything because the barista was late. This has happened a handful of times in a row and is honestly inexcusable. I’m going to start trying out Rush just right up the road.
Food is really good, and a fun place to hang out in downtown. Downside is they are really slow.
Great last minute place to get something to munch on
