Craig Purdon ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Relaxed environment. Heard some good reviews about the place so decided to try it out. We had some cocktails and made to perfection. The staff were friendly and they made the cocktails so quickly and tasted lovely. Huge fan and well worth every cent. Thanks guys

Our group of three visited The Alchemist on Sunday, and it was one of the absolute highlights of our whole trip to Edinburgh. If you're even considering eating here, I'd 110% recommend it! …

Had a lovely meet up with old friends for brunch. Our waiter Lewis was very attentive, there was a good selection of cocktails which brought the drama! Would recommend.

Just had a lovely lunch here with my partner. Our server Megan was lovely, had great suggestions for food and cocktails and was brilliant to chat to. Delighted with everything we got and we’d definitely come back the next time we’re in Edinburgh!
