ALCHEMIST BAR & LOUNGE

  
I have went to "The Alchemist Bar" last weeked with my friends, this bar has been soft-open for months, has been drawing flattering comparisons to Local Edition for its focus on meticulously-crafted artisanal cocktails. 


Even the downstairs entrance is awesome, When you first walk in, you will see the nice old fashion entry way with some antiques! Old-timey writing desk, a giant iron chandelier, and mildly creepy music coming from a digital phonograph.


 Walk up to the lounge you will the space is marked by the exposed brick walls and wooden beams characteristic of many Soma establishments and is softened up with plush leather seating.


Speaking of mildly creepy, they'll be projecting movies like this one on the walls.


And this is one of 10 cocktails developed by alums from Burritt Room, Tipsy Pig, Comstock Saloon, and Local Edition. Must-gets include the Stop Fenneling Me (Right gin, manzanilla, falernum, fennel bitters), and this honey-and-gin Beez Nuts, or what Betty regularly threatened to tea-bag Blanche with.


The playing shuffleboard was fun, I played with my boy friend and friends,  they've got an assortment of bar snacks provided by the downstairs Root and the possibility of after-11p rotating weekend eats including Korean-Chinese-Japanese street food from the Gung Ho dude.


Alchemist bar is fun and you can meet alot of people there, I have a great time there, I think you guys should come check it out!
