The Alchemist is an industry leading cocktail bar and restaurant, pushing the boundaries on theatrical cocktails, exciting serves and amazing team members. Our menu boasts over 50 signature cocktails, designed for theatre and guest interaction. We employ cutting-edge techniques such as dry-ice, spherification, clarification, carbonation and flavoured edible airs. We serve drinks on fire, drinks in lightbulbs and drinks in edible cups.
We believe that training is the most important part of making sure that a team member feels comfortable, valued and respected. All of our bartenders will begin their career learning the role of the bar support, as we believe it is fundamental for a well-rounded bartender to know each and every ingredient inside the drinks that they are creating.
