Love everything here - especially the iced honey latte with almond milk (best one so far) & all the eats, can’t go wrong!

The store is large, but it is not easy to find a place because there are always many people studying or working with computers. Coffee tastes really good. The people who work are friendly too. Try cheese cake! It is really 👍

Obligatory coffee to start the day. Today was a stop at Alchemist Coffee Project where we had an oat milk mocha, tiramisu, and Spanish latte.

We couldn't order any hot food because the kitchen was closed beside that everything was good.

Excellent hot americano in a pre-heated cup. The truffle avocado toast was excellent and very flavorful, on fresh toasted bread. The service was pretty quick and very friendly. The breakfast sandwich was really tasty, too. And, they have a really awesome pastry section. Parking is a little tough but they have valet. I’d definitely go back. I want to try the kimchi avocado toast!

Been here a couple times as well as the location in Hobart. Got to say kind of hard to choose which location I like better but this one seems to have a calmer vibe which I enjoy more. I’ll be coming here more often

If you’re getting a specialty drink it’s a great value, their chai latte is bomb. Drip coffee and pour over is a very bad value and I’d go somewhere else. Parking is extremely bad. The staff is hit or miss. Good bathroom but there’s only one. The restaurant is kept pretty clean and stocked. It has great charm and it’s cute, if you come at peak time you won’t be getting a seat, lots of students camped out for the day.

Good cafe, but the Duo Latte was overly sweet. Prices are a bit high and it was pretty crowded. I hate to say it, but this cafe seems a bit overrated.

I love this place! One of the better tasting iced lattes w/ oat milk in K-town. Amazing decor. Great for studying- they have plenty of tables and outlets. Staff and service is phenomenal as well.

Top notch caffeine concoction in town. Skip Starbucks if you want the real deal with real service. The staff here are so friendly and genuine professional batistas.

First time trying Alchemist coffee—their online ordering system is super easy to use & to customize your drink with. Plaza is kind of small and packed but free 1 hr parking in the lot. Had a grab and go latte (it was excellent coffee!) but the location had a nice vibe so I think it would be a great sit down place. Not expensive either, would definitely swing by again.

Lol this place’s food and drinks are terrible. Idk why it was recently built. Respect to the baristas for their latte art though

It was not too busy on a Monday late morning so I didn't expect a long wait time. It ended up being a half hour for a sandwich. Others behind me in line received their food orders well ahead of me and after asking why, I was told my order is being made. No explanation why I waited so long. Not worth the wait and should not have given them a tip for that kind of service.

Usually don’t have bad experience at this place. But expired “fake” eggs Avocado toast was pretty underwhelming to say the least, adding an egg will come at hefty price, be warned. And nothing is organic or it’s not listed on their menu. If you are gonna order scrambled eggs, they don’t actually use a fresh eggs but rather a pre-made egg mix. I had no words… Our order or avocado toast + egg smelled and tasted horrible, we stopped to check and realized the smell was coming from the eggs, they changed it, for well a fresh egg this time. It’s disappointing that I have to leave this review, I really do like(d) Alchemist Coffee, but it’s hard to want to come back after all this. How can I trust that they properly check the rest of their food supplies. And that their kitchen is kept clean. Two stars ⭐️ ⭐️ Because despite the lack of efforts to make this right the staff is kind and welcoming, well, most of them…and they have wifi.
