Went for brunch today, me and my partner are awkward vegan monsters but the staff were super accommodating and sorted us out with some lovely breakfasts - delicious and generous portions. Cocktails were all fantastic. We were also able to sit outside with my dog who had plenty of water and fuss provided. Every member of staff we dealt with were fantastic. Service was really prompt too.
The whole place looks stunning inside as well. Really, really loved it. Definitely worth every penny spent there.
amazing place, I came in with my camera crew as we was filming in Birmingham and as the rain came down on a Saturday afternoon we all rushed in to the alchemist :) nice and warm, food drinks staff on point and friendly, we will be coming again :) thanks x
One of my favourite places in town. I love the cocktails here but had never eaten until last night. I had the Katsu chicken and it was lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful a lively place thank you
The staff were lovely. The people behind the bar worked non stop. The people in front of the bar took orders so
We could stay seated. Absolutely perfect. Great fun and everyone made for a lovely atmospheric feeling. Highly recommend for an experience as well as a surprise for a drink �
Our server Steve was both cute and - more importantly - friendly. As a gay couple we appreciate a good blow torch double entendre.
Beautiful establishment and the food was sublime. Defo recommendo.
The meal was absolutely amazing and steak was to die for, our waitress was exceptional thank you x
What a great place, Cocktail making was fun with Matt, then lovely food and more drink!! Great atmosphere and staff too 😊
Just want to thank everyone, especially our waitress, for a fantastic birthday night. Couldn't have been treated better. Very attentive, fantastic food (ribeye steaks) & amazing cocktails 🍹🍸. Couldn't have asked for more 😀. You really made my day x
Absolutely brilliant atmosphere and a wonderful experience
Would recommend to anyone for that special night out x
Headed here as the suspence waiting for the Nottingham Alchemist was killing us.
Had 4 delicious cocktails, timed our arrival just right as we got a spot in the window to sit and had a great time.
Decor suits the theme really well.
Lovely lovely couple of hours spent here .. food was exceptional, staff attentive and entertaining .. a brilliant day was had by all
Had such a good night here....cocktails are amazing and so inventive, a very different experience so will go back for sure!! Bar staff were also a great, made an effort to talk to you and had good banter! 👌🏼
Went for brunch with a friend and her little baby girl. Staff were great about the baby and the food was very tasty. I would definitely go back of an evening and try some of their cocktails and more food.
Had a fantastic time here for my daughters hen party, thank you for a fabulous masterclass in cocktail making.
Booked table and went strait there. Food was lovely and service great and very helpful as first visit. Will definitely go again.
Excellent service! Definitely will be coming back for more, good quality food and a great ambience 😃
Love the place , always great service and a great skilled team
We went on a Saturday evening and immediately as we stepped in the music was blaring. They did however try to separate the restaurant from the bar but it was still quite loud. The seats were quite close together so it wouldn’t be good for an intimate chat. The food was really good but they served it in this quite awkward plate. The drinks in my opinion were awful, I can see the attempt to create fun and exciting new cocktails but I think they should just stick to the basics. I would return for the food but nothing else.
This place was lovely. The food was insanely good and filling. The cocktails were leaving something to be desired, they were not for me. Also, the music was quite loud making it more difficult to hear myself speak. Overall, it was a good experience, I could have benefitted from some simpler cocktails though.
Amazing cocktails, obviously! Very busy and hard to find a seat, I recommend booking if you're going at the weekend! On our Saturday night visit took about 20 mins to be served at the bar but worth the wait! Staff are so nice and very knowledgeable about their craft. Bit too loud for me personally but definitely a fun place to go.
Having eaten at the Nottingham alchemist before, the Birmingham Colmore Row one stood out to be better food and service and more of a nicer feel to it. Our waitress was Jas who was really fantastic and even though we were in a rush helped us by getting the deserts out really quickly and bringing the bill and card machine out so that we didn’t have to wait ages and could leave quickly and not miss our show. We all opted for the smoking boards. I am a vegetarian so chose the meat free chicken and was very pleasantly surprised how good this was - I’ve tried a lot of meat free chicken and this was one of the best! Drinks were really fun and theatrical as you’d expect and they don’t disappoint. Overall a really good experience and would certainly recommend. Thanks to Jas :)
What a fantastic cocktail bar! There is definitely magic going on behind that bar and watching the cocktails being made is fantastic. The bar is comfortable and cozy with a fabulous atmosphere. The range of cocktails is extensive so you definitely find something you will enjoy. It's worth a visit if you have never been before.

Who knew that The Alchemist could whip up more than just mind-blowing cocktails? Well, let me tell you, their breakfast game is on point! 🍳 We decided to shake things up and try their breakfast on a lazy Sunday morning, and boy, were we in for a treat.
First things first, forget everything you thought you knew about breakfast. The Alchemist doesn't mess around when it comes to cooking up a morning feast. Every single item on our plates was an absolute delight, cooked to perfection.
And get this—when they ask how you want your eggs cooked, they mean it! You can even mix it up and have each one cooked differently. Talk about catering to all tastes, even the slightly quirky ones (like mine)!
But it's not just about the eggs; it's the quality of the ingredients that really sets this breakfast apart. From the first bite, you can taste the difference. And they don't stop there—think cherry tomatoes cooked with garlic, taking your taste buds on a flavor journey you won't soon forget.
Now, I'll be honest, I'm not usually one for toast. But let me tell you, this toast and selection of bread? Absolute game-changer.
Long story short, our breakfast disappeared faster than you can say "delicious." I can't recommend it highly enough! Whether you're a cocktail connoisseur or just looking for a killer breakfast spot, The Alchemist has got you covered. 🥂
Absolutely incredible food and cocktails for the brunch menu, very good value for money. Very impressed with our server i actually timed the service time after i have finished my drink and it was 40 seconds. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!!!
It has the most fantastic cocktail presentation. It's a one-of-a-kind location. Cocktail enthusiasts will find a wide range of options.
I recommend it to anyone who like change and discovering new areas. It's worth a shot.
The service is also excellent, with a welcoming atmosphere.
The bottomless brunch here was lovely.
I'm not sure about the service so much. But considering our main waitress was lovely, food was amazing and the speed of service was great, we would definitely recommend. Maybe some of the other staff could have been a bit more freindly, no one smiled at us and they often made it look like they were staring and laughing. But I've worked in hospitality when I was younger, so hopefully was just a mistake or a bad day for some of the staff.
Definitely recommend the food, brunch is great value for money and it's super cool and trendy inside.
Visited on a Wednesday night, fairly quiet but meant we didn’t have to wait long to be served, it also didn’t have an impact on ambience of the bar.
Top notch cocktails, as always.
This is a great cocktail bar. I came here to celebrate with my sister and I got 'the legal one' cocktail, which was very fitting for the circumstances, and a few others. Overall, a great lively atmosphere, really friendly staff and of course the cocktails and the food were to die for. Will definitely be coming back again!
I loved it here! Totally different experience, great vibe, nice ambience.
1. It is wheelchair accessible
2. Staff are nice
3. Menu is quite unique
4. It is more of an experience than a hunger quench
5. Easy to locate
6. Neat and unique rest room
7. Food was great, I had one of the servers pick a dish for me and she did great. I had Crispy Fish Curry or so.
I would visit again.
Amazing service, food was 8/10 and huuuuge portion for a chicken salad. I got fries as an extra side but didn't need to! Knocked a star off as amount of drink in the cocktail was so little compared to the price. Very tasty, would come back. 😌
Absolutely incredible service, food, drinks, and atmosphere! It's was the best way we could have chosen to have spent our anniversary! Everything was explained and the show that came along with the drinks was just as lovely! Seriously, don't sleep on this place. The experience is incredible! It was such a, literally, magical experience! Thank you so, so much!
It’s very rare I take the time to leave a review, I’ve been to this venue and Nottingham a few times but usually outside of peak times. The cocktails and atmosphere were absolutely outstanding as always - but the reason for my review is to compliment the Door Supervision team, as a Director of a security business myself, I pay close attention to them. The Door Supervisors that worked yesterday evening were absolutely outstanding, they greeted us fantastically, with a great smile, banter and made us feel very welcoming from the moment I stepped through the door, to the moment I left. I would love it if you could pass this on to the team and supplier as it’s a thankless job at times and rarely they get the praise they deserve.
We booked online and left a deposit for the £35 bottomless brunch. But sadly as we caught covid, we had to cancel, the restaurant was really good, they held onto the deposit and allowed us to change the date for when we were clear.
When we came, the restaurant was quiet, service was quick and our waiter was very attentive. The menu had a good variety for brunch and it was a really good portion size plus the cocktails were delicious, a bit on the heavy side.
The only downfall is when we booked it was offering the £35 bottomless brunch, but when we asked after our brunch order how much time we had left for bottomless, they advised it was no longer available and we had already made our second order. So it was disappointing as we planned a moms day off for a lot of tipples!
Absolutely loved every moment at this place! The staff were lovely. I am not going to lie but there is 100% witchcraft going on here! Wizardry i tell you! I also got to try vegan tofu prawn toast! Since turning vegan I wanted to see what that tastes like and there it was on the beautifully designed menu. The inside was absolutely stunning. The toilets looked far to posh for myself to even be in them. I really did have a wonderful time.
Great experience! If you want to drink something really good and with an impressive presentation just try this restaurant! The bar and restaurant are very nice and ambient atmosphere. The food is good too. Nice service also, they a big variety of drinks and food also. I really recommend this if you wanna try something else.
