Great vibes in here and yummy drinks! I first arrived and got the raspberry sage latte which was yummy & came back later for drinks and pizza! They have super cool interesting drinks and the pizza (forgot which one but it had arugula, ricotta, and honey) was delicious

Had an amazing time here! The drinks were phenomenal, delicious and beautifully curated! We have also been for coffee and it was a 10/10. We are locals and have tried many places, but I can confidently say The Alchemist is our favorite by far. This will be our go to spot this summer for sure. Music, vibes, drinks...I cant say enough how great the experience was. Prices are comparable to other places, and we have no problem paying for handcrafted quality. Thank you to Julian, amazing mixologist and very friendly! Make sure you visit this spot you won't regret it!

An esthetically pleasing place with good coffee and good vibes. I loved the set up of this place. When I went, they had not started serving cocktails yet. Can’t wait to go back and try the drinks.

It took us a little while to finally make it here, but it was worth the wait. Espresso is fantastic and served with a glass of sparkling water as it should. Service was friendly and quick. We'll be returning for sure!

This place has been my new hangout spot for both coffee (in the day) and cocktails (in the evening)! Ever since my first visit, I definitely enjoy the evening more. Love how much effort you guys put into your drinks and experience overall for the people you serve! I'm more of an introvert who enjoys going out to drink without the partying so this place have been perfect. It's hard to find a vibey place to sit down and drink without blaring music or the bar filled with 30 people trying to get a drink in Indy. The bar people were amazing during my visits, they make sure to check on you when needed! (Thanks for the worm salt Julien) Coffee is pretty good as well, though I haven't gotten the chance to really explore as much. I've tried many places for coffee and this place is one of the few places in town I would go back for coffee! No watery coffee here as far as I know! Took my friends to visit after I hyped up the tarot cards you hand out with the cocktails but they must be popular because there weren't any when we asked. Sad I didn't get one last time :')

Great atmosphere, staff have seemed a little bothered to be in the service industry both times I've been there. The food choices are good but the lack a large variety. The space is worth navigating the staff.

Avid coffee drinker so I love when a new coffee shop opens in Indy. Absolutely love the moodiness of the space. It has couch & chair seating and a range of high & low tables that can seat anywhere from 2-8 people. Perfect space to grab a cup of coffee & get some work done or meet up to chat with a friend! By the time I arrived all the pastries were sold out so I’ll take that as a good sign & make sure I get here earlier next time. I got the Maple Cinnamon Latte & it was great. Not overly sweet either as that’s where most miss the mark. My boyfriend got the Italian Shortbread Latte & enjoyed it as well. The lattes are around $7 which I thought was kind of pricey at first but they only charge an additional $0.25 for alternative milk which makes it pretty standard compared to other cafes. Super excited for the cocktail hours to open!

Julian was great! He made delicious cocktails but also took some time to chat with us and teach us about liqueurs. They serve the drink with adorable coasters. I won’t say so I don’t ruin it. Espresso martini was 10/10 - just not big enough!

Loved this spot and will be back again! Went during cocktail hours with my girlfriends around 10pm-1am as they were hosting an event with a DJ. -drinks and shots are well priced -there is a small parking lot and street parking all available for free -their bathroom was so nice, I hate to walk into a really nice place and then go to use their restroom and it's disgusting and this place is not that -I didn't try any food this visit, but they did have flatbreads, charcuterie, and dessert options for the cocktail time -the environment was very speakeasy vibes or quiet date nights. You can easily go with a group of friends and have fun or with your partner for some quality time

Let me just say that The Alchemist is a total vibe! I stopped by on a Saturday night with some friends. We originally sat at the bar. The bartenders were super cool and helpful when it came to choosing a specialty drink. We then decided to moved to a table on the back side. It was dark, intimate, and relaxing. There was a live dj playing rnb. I will say there is only 1 restroom, but it wasn't too much if a problem and it was very clean. Parking is located on the street and and in the back. I can't wait to return!

After a friend of mine and I attended an event at Tinker House Events downtown recently, we wanted to check out some place new nearby to try for a coffee, cocktail and bite to eat. Naturally, I referred to the Yelp app to help guide us to a local spot. We ended up at "The Alchemist" which has only been open for a few months. This place checked all the boxes for what we were seeking. There is some parking behind the building if you prefer not to park on the street. We walked into a dimly lit space with a woman singing so well I had to make sure it wasn't a recording. It's definitely a vibe. There's a bar and restaurant as well. I had my go to espresso martini. I wanted to try the Birria Empanadas but they were out hence the 4 stars. My friend and I shared the Margherita pizza. I'm picky about this particular pizza and this one wasn't my favorite. There was a mesquite BBQ like spice on it that I wasn't expecting and not sure I would order again. Overall the service, drinks and ambiance were excellent. I would probably go back just to see if they have those empanadas in the future so I can compare them to the ones I love at Che Chori.

It was super cute inside. We weren't greeted when we walked in but was greeted at the counter when placing our order. We stopped in after volunteering at a church down the street. I ordered a carmel hot chocolate. I wasn't too impressed with the flavor. I later purchased two bottles of tea. I drank one today and wasn't impressed either. The bottles were $7 each.

What a cute spot! We stopped in for a quick latte & treat on Labor Day. I ordered the Orange Dark Chocolate Latte with the Gluten-Free scone. And my partner ordered a latte with the old fashioned donut. The barista was really kind about my non-dairy needs and let me know about the cold foam in the original drink I wanted (Sage Raspberry Latte). Love the vibes, the seating options and looking forward to trying out the adult beverages soon.

I love The Alchemist so much and cannot thank them enough for being a fantastic venue for two Bookclubs I am in. The drinks are always spectacular and the bar tenders are fast and attentive. I loved the Halloween decorations and love that it is such a large bar with multiple areas for different sized groups. The Spicy Margarita is my go to, but there is never a bad drink on the menu.

This heady, upscale coffee and alcohol bar sits in an old building in the trendy Northside neighborhood. We stopped if for pastries on a Saturday morning before going to the museum. Unfortunately, the pastries had not arrived by 9 a.m., which is why we stopped in. The clerk was apologetic. We sat and waited. The dining area has lots of comfy seating with an industrial vibe and heavy jazz plays overhead. The dim lighting is comforting and romantic. The locally made donuts arrived shortly after we sat. I rarely complain about donuts, but the chocolate covered donut was a disappointment. The donut was heavy and not light and fluffy. The Apple Fritter was good, but could have had a bit more fruit. Note, they no longer make/serve breakfast sandwiches that are described in other reviews. Alcohol is served after 5:00 p.m. Street parking is free. A single unisex restroom serves all. Cool coffee shop. Free street parking. Clean restroom. Donuts were meh. Outdoor, pet friendly, patio.

The Alchemist almost has the perfect formulation. I really like The Alchemist. While it's location isn't ideal (for me) as it's not close to places I frequent, the super cute interior and FREE parking help to make up for it. The cocktails are pretty good, though The Alchemist has gone the way of many local bars with pre-mixed cocktails. I really miss the bespoke experience I have come to expect. As the cocktails are pre-mixed, it's difficult for the bartenders to deviate from their set recipes and for a bar named "The Alchemist," that feels like a miss. A few tweaks and the opportunity to customize cocktails will push this beautiful space much closer to that coveted 5-stars.

I stopped in for my second time last night with my husband, sister, and BIL after going out to dinner to celebrate a birthday. The cocktails were just as good as I remembered, but unfortunately so was the long wait time for drinks. Later into the night it usually is easier to get drinks quicker, but that is really the only downside. And you at least know the cocktails are being made fresh to order and are not pre-made in a dispenser. We chose to sit outside with our drinks since it was well into the evening and it had cooled off significantly. The other 2 outside tables had other groups of people sitting at them that were incredibly loud, were literally yelling into their phone, etc. That wasn't the most enjoyable, but you can't help who sits next to you. Both times I've been here have been Saturday nights, which clearly stay busy, so I'd like to try and stop in on maybe a Wednesday or Thursday to see if it's less packed. I also can't wait to stop in during the morning for a coffee!

First off I know you have been disappointed numerous times by ordering flavored lattes because they simply don't taste like the name, I know this because I have been numerous times but I am AMAZED on the taste of the Sweet Potato Pie latte!! It was AMAZING! The espresso taste wasn't over powered by the flavoring so you were still able to enjoy that aspect but wow.. this drink was perfect ! Had the iced s'mores latte and it was just as good but that sweet potato latte changed my expectations up !! There was a lot of space for seating and a bar for alcoholic drinks as well. From the pics you can see the ambiance is just a whole vibe! Dark industrial feel with moody vibes. Great spot for students, while I was there, there was quite a few groups and despite there being many people it was not loud like some others I've been too. Service was just as good- welcomed with a smile and offered suggestions. If I could give it bonus stars I would, I will be a regular !

My significant other and I decided to try this place for the first time for a birthday outing after dinner. The decor and vibe of this place screams "Date Night". They play all genres of music and its not to loud where you can't have an intimate conversation. We went here for drinks only (which were amazing by the way) but we ended up trying the burria empanadas too! The empanadas gave a good balance of sweet and savory . The staff was so welcoming to us and even accommodated us for a wait on a missed ticket without us even having to ask. This is our new favorite "go to"spot for drinks !

Nice space that was clean and welcoming. The service was friendly. However, my iced matcha latte was just ok. It tasted a bit watered down with the milk completely overpowering the lavender and matcha flavors. The bathroom was clean and there was parking on the street and behind the building in a lot. I hope to return and try other drinks.

My advice: Don't visit hungry. In the morning, they have two types of pre-made bagel sandwiches (bacon and egg, and sausage and egg), a few pastries and that's it. I ordered a sausage and egg bagel sandwich, and they went behind a curtain to fetch it. I guess they have bagel sandwiches in a warmer at the ready? In any case, The Alchemist isn't really a place to get a meal -- it's more of a coffee shop in the morning and bar in the evening. If you want to nosh, go elsewhere. The lattes, though, are delicious and so pretty. I don't usually get lattes, or any kind of coffee drink that isn't black coffee. (Too many empty calories!) But I was feeling particularly footloose and fancy free, so an orange dark chocolate latte and a chai latte was procured. Both were great, and the orange dark chocolate latte was served with a nice, creamy heart design on top. I visited on a nice day when the sun was out and the temps were high, so they opened the roll-up garage doors that line one whole side of the coffee shop. It was so relaxing to sit and enjoy a coffee while the fresh air streamed in. Other things I noticed during my visit to The Alchemist: There's one non-gendered restroom, and it has menstrual products for people to use if they need them. There are many different seating arrangements here: couches, comfy chairs, big tables for groups, two-seater tables, four-seater tables. They have a designated parking lot, but there's also street parking. I'll have to come back sometime in the evening when their menu switches to cocktails. The vibe at The Alchemist seems like it would be a good place to get a drink with a new person in your life who you want to impress.

Came here to catchup with an old friend and I was not disappointed! Service was quick and I appreciated there was plenty of seating inside. It was also nice that they have their own parking lot in the back! I ordered the Army & Navy drink and it was perfectly balanced. Fun fact, this place is a coffeeshop during the day and turns into a lounge in the evening! I will definitely be back during the day to try some of their day items off of the menu!

So, so, so nice! You would never guess this used to be the old West Fork Whiskey -- they've completely repurposed the space and made the most of it. I came here for the cocktail party and the vibes were 10/10. I haven't visited during the day yet, but night time is all about low lights, unique cocktails, and great energy. They also offer a small food menu - word on the street is to try the pizza! The bartenders are super helpful, fun, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. I can't recall the name of my cocktail, but it was rum based with egg white, pineapple, and lime and it came with a fortune card and a quick burn of sage! Yes, you read that right. A fortune and sage burned around my drink. I also tried a friends lemon drop and it was VERY good, if you're into those. Or maybe, even if you're not! Great spot for a chill hangout with friends, a cozy date night, or even a private party as they have a private room available for events. Cheers to a great time and good energy at The Alchemist!

This venue was gorgeous; absolutely one of the cleanest places I've been to. There was a ton of seating indoors that wrapped all around the counter which gave a very private and comforting feel. Lights were somewhat dimmed for a cozy atmosphere but not enough to make working on a laptop or visiting with friends "too dark." I loved the color scheme of this location and they had outdoor seating as well with water dishes and treats for your pups. The staff is incredibly kind and the torched s'mores latte was incredible. The graham cracker with torched marshmallow added the perfect touch. The drink was refreshing but not too overpowering of a taste. I will absolutely be back to this location

Was sad that when we turned up at 11pm was told by the not so friendly bartender that they didn't serve coffee, that they were a cocktail bar, despite the online info touting their affiliation with coffee. Their blackboard outside even men tioned having coffee. Inside was cool, for a cocktail bar. It's tucked into a peaceful little neighborhood. I'm only giving 3 stars bc the inside was cool. Bartender only gets 1 star for making us feel like a-holes.

The best Old Fashioned in Indy! I have been searching for a while! We went for the Devour menu. We were way impressed. The venue is beautiful. We chose to eat Inside but there is a lovely patio. We previewed the Devour menu so we were ready to order. The offering included a cocktail. Our guide was Julian. He was more than a server. We chose the caprese. Good choice. Second course was margarita flatbread. Beautiful presentation. Third course was Affogato. I first tried it in Italy. I was so impressed. I have tried a few in the US. Its rarely an offered, and when it is it is not Affogato. This was the real deal. The food was delicious. The service perfect. I am just so thrilled to find the real deal. Perfect food. Perfect service. Perfect atmosphere.

After a great dinner at another local spot. I took a walk to The Alchemist. The ambiance is comfy coffeehouse with a "I want to chill and vibe to some music with my friends with a delicious cocktail in hand" type of night life. They have specialty cocktails with something special for everyone (tequila, gin, vodka and bourbon) and even non-alcoholic options. Service was top notch and we were greeted with a smile and pick a spot wherever you like. Our bartender/waiter provided great service and also shared all of the great entertainment they offer during the week. They have bravo trivia, jazz artists and on the Saturday I was there they were having 3 DJs later that night. Truly something for everyone. Parking: parking available in a designated lot for The Alchemist and street parking out front. I'll be back to check out the coffeehouse experience in the near future.

Yay!!! I'm super excited about the location of this place! Since I moved in the neighborhood I have always said a coffee shop would be fantastic here. Now I loved WestFork Whiskey but they weren't open until 4 or 5 so all day the building wasn't open to the public. Upon walking in it was packed and bustling. Some people sitting at the bar working, just sitting and enjoying their phones, others conducting work business. At the tables, several looked like they were having a team meeting or organizing something. There is plenty of space, tables, couches, chairs and then of course the bar area. There were 3 people ordering ahead of me and that process did take time. From walking in until I got my drink I'd say it was about 15 minutes or so. I wasn't in a rush so it was fine but if you want to just run in on the way to work, I would suggest leaving a tad bit early. They also have pastries if you need a bite. Pricing is pretty standard for a coffee shop so no concerns there. Again, super excited to have this spot in the neighborhood because in the late afternoon it turns into a cocktail bar. I haven't been yet so can't speak to it but looking forward to going. Welcome to Kennedy King Alchemist!

I came here over the weekend and was sad to see they were closed as I been wanting to try the new coffee shop! So I finally came today and they were opened. They close at 2 so plan accordingly. Def wish they stayed opened longer. When I walked in it was really pretty and the bar top decor was phenomenal. I felt at peace there and the sunlight was beautiful inside. I did not try any food but the skinny vanilla latte with latte art was fun! The service was okay. Nothing special about it I think it was just a quiet morning for everyone as they don't greet you or say thank you etc but I enjoyed my time and will be back. Pros Beautiful Location Soft music Cons Cold Customer service was just okay

Went for cocktails on Saturday when they had a DJ! It was a moody environment with low lights and good music. The staff was attentive but gave us time to order, which I really liked. They also let us know when the time came that they wouldn't be doing table service anymore and we'd have to order and pay up at the bar. It was courteous and I really liked that they took the time to tell each table individually. As for the cocktails: The espresso martini ($15) was very good - something a coffee and cocktail spot should nail and they absolutely did. The other drink we got was the Yama No Yuki ($15), which was whiskey, yuzu, pandan syrup and a bit of matcha. I expected it to be really vibrant and tart yet earthy and balanced because of the ingredients but it wasn't all that flavorful or memorable. I got an Army & Navy ($13) after that and it was delicious. I forgot to take a photo, but it was perfectly strong, tart, sweet, and frothy. A classic drink that they got right. I also have to mention that a friend got the O.F. Martini and loved it - it had passion fruit so it was pretty tropical and came with a spoonful of boba! It was an experience to say the least! My last note because I'm picky, but also a very unnecessary detail: I wish their menu was on a smaller paper? It would have seemed more up scale. I'm excited to try the rest of their menu soon!

Our waiter was extremely polite and patient. He took time to explain the drinks in depth and then prepared them in a very artistic and tasteful manner. The outside porch was pleasantly relaxing, being on the east side of the building it was cool and shady. The seats were comfy and if I had the time and money I could spend hours here.

Beautiful new coffee shop in the Kennedy King neighborhood, previously occupied by West Fork Whiskey. The place was fairly crowded, not surprising for a late morning on a Saturday. The service was efficient and the woman taking my order appeared to know the menu well. She suggested add-ons, which is something I have mixed feelings about, since it wasn't clear these cost extra. Still clinging to holiday flavors, I got the gingerbread nitro brew with foam. Gingerbread is my favorite seasonal flavor and this didn't disappoint. The drink was not only beautifully made but had the perfect amount of gingery spice and sweetness (not too much). The prices are on par with other places. I'll definitely return for a lazy morning and look forward to checking out their cocktail service.

Takeout cups at the end of the night... even when you're dining in I stopped by this coffee shop toward the end of the evening, and while the drinks themselves were good, the service was disappointing. We were given to-go cups even though we were clearly staying to sit and enjoy our drinks. When we asked, we were told they "don't want to wash dishes during the last hour of the shift." I understand closing duties, but refusing dine-in cups well before closing just feels lazy and unwelcoming. It changed the whole vibe of the visit and made us feel like they were trying to rush us out. Great drinks, but the customer service needs work. If you're going to stay open, you should serve customers properly until time

I love this space before and still love it under the new business. Their drink menu is pretty extensive and has nice offerings. We stopped in for a quick cocktail and glass of wine before heading towards Mass Avenue. It was a great day outside so we chose the patio seating. The bartender was very helpful and Personable. Great place to hang out and have a quick drink.

Stopped by and had their gingerbread nitro, and it is super unique. Definitely tasted the gingerbread flavor with a hint of what I think was orange. I couldn't help but think while drinking it that this would be the perfect base for a take on an espresso martini. The place is pretty new, so there's not a lot to it yet, but with the quality of the coffee, it's a great start. I stopped by during morning rush, so I was the only customer at the time, but the staff seemed friendly enough. Would recommend checking this place out

Cozy new spot on Bellefontaine with lots of comfy seats and nooks and crannies to read your book or just hang out. I got a cappuccino and a double chocolate muffin - they were both excellent. They are supposed to be extending into later hours with cocktail service. Free WiFi, plenty of street parking nearby.

They nailed the design and decor in this place. I love the vibe, ease of parking, and ample seating. Indoor and outdoor spaces are really cute and cozy. I really wanted to love the coffee as well but there is definitely room for improvement. I got a pistachio latte and it was just meh. I also bought two bags of coffee, I've only tried one bag and it's also just meh if not worse. They might do better sourcing coffee from an established roaster in the city. I definitely want to go back to try cocktails and enjoy the space but I'm not sure this would ever be my go to for coffee in the area.

First off,I absolutely love the hat they did with the former West Fork Whiskey space. I was very curious to see what they were going to do. It's very cozy and airy and open. I was happy to see they had a golden latte as one of the non-caffeinated options. Sadly, it was not good. And the most expensive golden latte I've seen in the city. Womp. It was literally milk and turmeric. No sweetener, no cinnamon, ginger, clove. Just bland and overpriced. Love the vibes and service was great though

They did a great job transforming what used to be a whiskey production facility into The Alchemist. The front bar is still there, and the back area is now a cozy and comfortable space. The place is low-key without being too intimate or cramped. My first visit was for coffee, and now The Alchemist is ready with their cocktails program. Their most popular drinks are their specialty lattes. There is a variety of seasonal flavors to choose from. Their cocktails menu looks solid, with a number of classics and signature drinks. I happened to chat with the owners during my last visit. Once it warms up there are plans to host weekly events such as live music and trivia. There is a garage door that opens to the sidewalk, and some outdoor seating will be available.

I've only been for coffee at the Alchemist so far, but I love the concept of coffee/cocktail lounges that seamlessly flow from day to nighttime service. The Alchemist does it well while standing out from other local shops with their relaxed, moody, and cozy-industrial vibe inside. It was a busy day when we visited but still had plenty of space for our large group to gather together at a table to catch up. They had a good array of seating options for groups of all sizes as well as individuals looking to get solo work done. The Italian Shortbread Latte I ordered was good, but so far what will really make me return is their great atmosphere!

The Alchemist Brews Something Delicious First time visiting this little neighborhood spot since West Fork left. While I absolutely loved West Fork, they've taken the space here and turned it into a cute little coffee/bar combo. Both the interior and exterior look great and there were a good handful of people on a Sunday evening either chatting or working. We ordered some late lattes and will definitely be back to try some cocktails.

The team and the atmosphere of this space is amazing! This spot did a great job with vibes and the staff were super friendly. Their coffee service left a little to be desired though. There was also a private event while I was there that had about half of the seating reserved but there was still space for walk-ins. Definitely made a mental note to enquire about rentals in the future.

My favorite kind of coffee shop is one that feels more like a cozy living room that someone puts thought and care into as opposed to a cafe. The Alchemist is exactly that! They quick service, knowledgeable baristas, attention to detail set The Alchemist apart. The latte was a work of art and absolutely delicious (not too sweet). Well done, Alchemist!

As a previous West Fork enthusiast, if anything was going to take over this space, I was super exited to find out it would be a coffee/cocktail shop! I LOVE what they have done with the space! Lots of space to meet a group of friends, have a cute date, or do some work. I was impressed with the amount of options for having recently opened. They offer coffee, tea and non coffee options. I didn't get a chance to try the pastries on this visit, but they looked delicious. I opted for the iced eggnog seasonal latte. It was not overly sweet which I appreciated, but I do prefer a bolder espresso; didn't get much coffee or eggnog flavor. My friend tried the Italian Shortbread latte and very much enjoyed it! Definitely one of their sweeter options. All in all, loved the chill vibes and will definitely be back!

I got the iced Italian shortbread latte and it was great! I think it would be better hot instead of iced, so I'll be back to try that. The inside is very cozy and cute. There are tons of tables and seats to study or do work at. The employees were super friendly and handled being very busy well! It's a great addition to the neighborhood!

Going to miss west fork but this is a cute new addition to the neighborhood! Haven't had the opportunity to try their cocktails yet, but swung by in the morning for a coffee. Got the specialty Americano and presentation was on point and v festive. Not really sure I would order it again since it tasted more like cranberry than coffee? Will have to try out an Americano or latte to test out their coffee. The space is super cozy and vibes with lots of seating - there are some tables with outlets (but I think I saw just 3?). Only downside is that the hours are limited so if working or reading here there is a hit of a time constraint. Excited to see if the non-specialty/standard coffee drinks are good and excited to try the cocktails once they're available!

Review subject to change as they integrate cocktail aspect. They did excellent job with usage of space in former Westfork whiskey location. Plentiful seating available great for meeting with coworkers/work, studying. The coffee was fair. Many menu options available featuring variety of flavors. As someone who prefers light roast, fruit/foral forward coffee, the coffee a bit bitter and dark for palate. Tried cold brew as well which also fair, but lacked brightness that preferable in cold brew. Espresso drinks seem to be the way to go here. The roaster featured seemed to be largely either darker roast blends or espresso. Will be back to try cocktails.

Another cute, cozy coffee shop just opened and I was very excited to check it out. The menu is pretty simple, just your typical espresso drinks with a few speciality lattes. The cinnamon roll was very yummy and they even warm it up for you! A great spot with lots of seating, perfect for a meeting or study date :)

This little spot is so cute! The ambiance and aesthetic are so appealing and they've decorated the space so well! We were a little disappointed that they don't serve alcohol until 5pm, even on Saturdays, as we were hoping to get a cocktail in the afternoon before the Fever game. I feel as if this information should be posted in more places, as we heard a few individuals walk in while we were there also trying to order a cocktail. I got a pistachio latte that was okay, drinkable but not my favorite. Would love to come back and try out some of their cocktails, though, as the place was very cute and inviting!
