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!

Found parking surprisingly pretty fast. I enjoyed a refreshing Iced Organic Peach Peony Tea, rating it 10/10. My companion ordered a cheesecake, which I sampled and rated 9/10 for its delicious, subtly sweet flavor. She also had a Tiramisu Latte, giving it a 10/10 rating. The establishment offers ample space for studying and working.

Been here twice so far and both times have been great. The available syrups are not house-made, so I skipped on getting vanilla latte (my go-to drink) and got the Spanish coffee, which was great. Their Matcha latte was pretty solid too. Btw, I loved their Basque cheesecake. It was delicious.

Was staying in the area for a couple of days and we were able to walk to this cute little shop. Fun decorations inside very like steampunk in a way but for coffee. Service was goods My friends enjoy their coffees, so I’m not sure what they were drinking, I think they got the same the next day . The first day I had the tiramisu drink, and it was quite delightful, more dessert than it was coffee, but it was still very good . The second day I had a brown sugar latte, and it was good . The ham and cheese croissant was so incredibly flaky. I got a second day in a row. . We tried the honey cake and it’s very nostalgic and reminds me of a moon pie, and I can’t stop thinking about it. I would love to know where they get their pastries from. . Definitely skip the chain coffee shops, and come here!

Food: 8.1/10 (got the croissant: super fresh and crispy) Service: 7.5/10 (not chatty but still nice) Atmosphere: 7.5/10 (Productive, plenty of tables and places to sit. It can be loud sometimes) Coffee: 7.8/10 (really nice, good coffee experience) Super fun spot. Productive environment, but it can be loud at times. The staff were nice enough, but they didn't seem very chatty; could be a plus or minus. The coffee came out quickly. Love that they have a "for here" option where they give you a mug. Less single use products and better coffee drinking experience. The croissant was surprisingly fresh and crispy. My latte (regular milk) was VERY clean and had a nice lightness with it, which is rare for a latte in my opinion. I would recommend!

Slammed the Misugaru latte in record time. I really tried to pace myself, but this is one of the best coffees I've ever had. I'm currently sitting inside, debating on ordering one to-go just to have a "walking home" version. I'm unwell. The coffee isn't. Indoor seating was plentiful.

Here’s a polished review: Alchemist Coffee Project was a pleasant surprise and quickly became a favorite. The bakery items are excellent - the Pesto Danish is easily a 6/5, packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. Gets sold out quick.The Everything Croissant is another standout at 5/5, and the chocolate biscuits are great as well. The coffee is good, though I would recommend asking for it extra hot when ordering. The Spinach Feta pastry was good too (4/5). The café itself is cute, cozy, and has a nice atmosphere. The only downside is that it’s a bit on the expensive side. Overall, definitely worth a visit.

Great spot to study and work. Nice ambiance. The music is not obnoxiously loud. I had a hot matcha. It was excellent. I got it sweetened but it was modestly sweet, as it should be. I was able to find street parking for free because I came on a Sunday but the parking situation looks sketchy. A very small strip mall lot with lots of businesses. It seems like it’s valet parking.

Found this super cool, modern cafe in K-Town called Alchemist Coffee Project. The coffee is really good, and they have a great selection of biscuits and pastries. I tried the matcha biscuits and they were delicious. The decor is a mix of interesting and slightly 'weird', and they have some unique merch for sale too.
