Very posh chilled vibes in this restaurant/Bar. Went in initially just for a drink but because we might get a table we ordered some tempura prawns which are absolutely delicious. And the drinks we had were very nice as well and the whole place is very elegant, definitely a great place for a night out with friends or a date with the partner.

Wow! Great experience as expected. Amazing cocktails and great food. Couldn't ask for more. The bartender provided exceptional service. As it was our first time here, we had a lot of questions and he was really kind and helpful. We had 4 cocktails each and we really enjoyed them till the last drop.

Vine aquí solo, esta es mi primera vez comiendo solo en un restaurante y mi camarero Tom me hizo sentir a gusto e incluso disfrutar de la experiencia. Era educado, atento y divertido. Hizo esta experiencia mucho menos estresante de lo que esperaba. La comida estuvo brillante como siempre y siempre recomendaré las papas fritas de sal y pimienta ❤️. gracias de nuevo equipo : )

The veg sharing plate as a starter was really delicious but my main course was disappointing (tempura batter was too thick and heavy). Music was rather loud.

Just had an amazing meal and I can't stop raving about it! The food was top-notch—everything from the smoking chicken to the cookie smore was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. The cocktails were a highlight too; great value and served with a bit of theatre! The staff were super attentive, guiding us through the menu and even recommending drinks which really made the experience special. Can't wait to come back for more!

Increíble. Hicimos los 3 cócteles n brunch 30 libras trato. Le pregunté a la oficina central si podemos cambiar de opinión a la llegada y dijeron que sí. Después de la 1 calle 2 tragos nos dimos cuenta por 10 más podemos ir ilimitado el chico amable pidió n nos dejó. El almuerzo estaba bien, pero los cocktaisl eran encantadores. Todos los servidores eran amigables aunque 3 días después de Navidad decidimos eliminar el cargo masivo por servicio. (Ojalá nunca ahora). Gran brunch gran personal grandes cócteles!

Really disappointed with our latest trip to the alchemist. Me and my partner had our first date at The Alchemist and have chose to go back for the last 3 years. The first two times were amazing, great food and service. This time we arrived early at 6:40 on Friday the 13th when the table was booked for 6:45. Was quickly greeted and sat which was promising. Our main gripe was we was sat in the restaurant area but the music was that loud you couldn’t hear each other speak. We then sat for 25 minutes without no one coming over. We tried to flag down waiters and waitresses but was looked at and ignored. Finally at 7:07 what must of been a manager kindly came over and took our drink and food order. The drinks arrived shortly and as usual was very nice. Starters arrived quickly and we started to relax as it seemed like everything was going well. Starters were cleared and mains took nearly and hour to come out and when they did they were disappointing. Rice was overcooked and katsu chicken breadcrumbs was soft. We quickly ate and asked for the bill. I asked for service charge to be taken off which is a first as me and my partner both work in hospitality. Really saddened as we love the alchemist but this has left us wondering if we should go elsewhere in future.

El lugar siempre es bueno, pero mi única observación era el personal pasando tanto tiempo jugando. Sí, el bar era tranquilo, pero literalmente una persona de cada 7 no estaba haciendo nada. Había un funcionario que claramente estaba sirviendo bebidas, pero el resto aparte de los supervisores no estaban haciendo nada. Una señora incluso estaba armada con pistola de agua. No es lo que hubiera esperado ya que pagué 14 libras por una copa de vino, y luego estaba en un entorno como este Ligeramente decepcionado por los estándares aquí que mojan ser entregados.

My wife and I visited for dinner and cocktail before heading into town. Booked table online (very easy, and would recommend booking on a weekend). Katsu Curry and Chicken in a basket was fresh, succulent and very tasty. Caramel Churros for dessert were piping hot, delicious and extremely moorish! Would highly recommend the Churros. Smoking Old Fashioned cocktail was perfect (and really hard to find a good Old Fashioned nowadays). We went around 6pm, and it was busy, but not overcrowded. If I had one criticism, it would be the music was very loud in the dining area (made it quite hard to talk and order). Everywhere else, the music volume was perfect. Very highly recommend!

We recently stopped in for lunch, having only experienced the cocktails here on previous visits. For starters, we chose the chorizo and cheddar dough balls, followed by the tempura fish and chips and the French dip steak sandwich as our mains. Each dish was flavorful, and the service was attentive throughout. While the food was enjoyable, we did anticipate a bit more of the creative, laboratory-style flair that the establishment is known for with its cocktails. Overall, a pleasant dining experience, though a touch more innovation in the food presentation would have been appreciated to match the uniqueness of their drinks menu.

Mi primera vez en el Alquimista después de todos estos años. Nos trataron con servicio de mesa que nos salvó de esperar ansiosamente en el bar. Hay una amplia gama de cócteles para elegir. Fui por el de los zombis. El miembro del personal me dijo que solo lo bebiera a través de la pajita y no a través del vaso, porque entonces me quemaría la garganta. Por supuesto, esto significa que pasé todo el tiempo teniendo que contenerme físicamente de beber a través del vidrio por pura curiosidad. Las bebidas son todas caras, pero creo que por una bebida vale la pena por la experiencia!

Pedí un cóctel para compartir llamado "Elige tu veneno" El lugar estaba vacío. Tardaron 20 minutos en servirnos. La bebida sabía bien, pero si la hubiéramos vertido en un vaso de media pinta, apenas la habría llenado hasta la mitad. Y para añadir insulto al perjuicio añadieron automáticamente un 10% de cargo por servicio sin preguntarnos. Lo pagamos pero nunca volveremos!

La ubicación es excelente al estar tan cerca de la estación de tren. Nuestro hotel estaba a solo 100 metros de distancia, así que estábamos muy emocionados de ir después de nuestra comida de aniversario para tomar cócteles. Nos habían recomendado visitar aquí por varios amigos, así que estábamos preparados para un final divertido de la noche. Gran ambiente acogedor de bar y personal alegre , servicial ayudándonos a seleccionar algo que se adapte a nuestro gusto del extenso menú . La preparación de todos los cócteles termina con el llenado completo de la copa con hielo y luego se vierte en el brebaje para descansar hacia el fondo de la copa. No pasó mucho tiempo para que nuestras bebidas comenzaran a debilitarse por el hielo derretido y me dejó haciendo muecas en el sabor al final. Tristemente esta fue nuestra única bebida ya que nos fuimos a probar en otro lugar.

I’ve visited The Alchemist several times before with larger groups and have always had a great experience. However, my recent visit as a party of two was incredibly disappointing. The difference in service was stark. Despite having a reserved time slot, we were served only two rounds of drinks and felt completely ignored by the staff. We had to repeatedly prompt them just to place an order for our drinks. When we finally managed to order a second drink, our server told us she’d have to check if we had enough time left on our table—something I’ve never experienced before. When we tried to order food, we were told we could only order small plates, which felt like a deliberate effort to rush us out the door. It’s clear that The Alchemist prioritises larger parties and neglects smaller groups. This felt unfair considering we were paying customers just like everyone else. What used to be a go-to spot for me has now become a place I’ll likely avoid in the future. If you’re in a smaller group, I wouldn’t recommend.

A wonderful first time visit to The Alchemist in Greek Street, Leeds. The cocktails were amazing and the food was great, but the thing that turned a good night into a great night was the service from Tilly and Ollie. They couldn't have been more friendly, helpful or informative (and patient with a noisy table having a fun night out). If I could give 10 stars for service, I would! I certainly know where I'll be heading next time I'm in Leeds!!

Firstly trying to book was a bit of a nightmare but it was sorted out once complaints were raised, 12 of us dined tonight for my 25th, food was absolutely brilliant, service was also good. Drinks, cocktails specifically were a little on the strong side. In my opinion cocktails are meant to taste nice and get you drunk sneakily, these tasted like pure spirit. For example I had a strawberry daiquiri and it was very strong rum taste rather than the strawberry fruity flavour it should have. Then our biggest issue came to the bills. With us being a big group I understand it may be difficult to deal with however my mother in law was ordering bottles of wine and laying separately to the bill we had with the food, when she got said bill for the wine there was an extra £5 tip charge along with a service charge she’d never agreed to. Then when we all got our final bills which was two separate bills, 6 people on each bill. One bill was fine no issue, the bill for the second table which had my mother on it who originally paid the deposit for the table all paid their bill however the £132 cash they paid was never registered on the till and so the deposit returned to my mother was less than she should of had, wether this was a mistake by one of the staff or intentional of what we have no idea, it was dealt with after about 30 minutes after one member of our group spoke to the staff to try and explain the mistake made to which then staff were very reluctant to try and resolve the incident and were very argumentative, one waitress in particular whose name we did not get but was very rude to members of our party during the questioning of the bill. In the end it was all resolved however being completely honest I would never return here again which is unfortunate as the food is great but our experience was ruined due to poor customer service.

Well.......it was a wet cold friday evening walking through the dreary streets of Leeds I stumbled upon this bar by luck. My nephews 20th birthday I said I will treat you to some cocktails. The bar was extremely quiet and dead. However it was a really great night as the staff were happy and made it good fun. I worked my way through the menu and I think we tried around 80percent of the cocktails. In my personal opinion the popsicle ones Tasted soapy and I really didn't like them. The fun ones were TNT and Mad hatters. The one I enjoyed the taste of the mist was jaffa cake. It comes with a warning don't bite the edible cup until completely empty (I had about and inch left and thought it will be fine if I nibble the top... but it split all the way done and leaked over my leg) All in all this was the better franchised cocktail bars I have been in....

We dined here on Sunday 3rd December with a reservation. We are returning customers to The Alchemist and fans of both restaurants in Leeds, however Sunday’s experience was very disappointing. Service was slow throughout even though the restaurant was very quiet, the restaurant was freezing and the attitude of the staff member when I asked if the heating was broken was disappointing. To be told we were sat on the side where the heating doesn’t work, and the temperatures are freezing outside is sad sign of the lack of customer experience you strive for. We arrived cold after being out in the snow, and left colder. We won’t be rushing back!

I recently visited the alchemist on a Saturday night, myself and MIL ordered a pornstar martini. When it came it was 90% froth and a yellow colour. We challenged the bar man stating it was all froth and he replied with ‘it’s still got the same amount of alcohol and the froth will go down’ meaning we only had a very small amount of liquid. When I tasted it I was so disappointed! It tasted nothing like passion fruit and tasted allot more like pineapple with a bitter taste. It was completely undrinkable. We then went to all bar one further down and the porn star martinis there were 1000000% better. Really disappointing for alchemist considering the prices it charges.

Showed us to our seat promptly with no problem even though we had no booking. For first timers, we found the drinks menu had so much variety and were a little unsure on what to order. Imad our waiter was so friendly and had a very happy aura. He was more than happy to help recommend things we may enjoy. The food was so amazing. I’ve never had anything like it.

Came here yesterday for my friends hen party, I loved the cocktails and personally thought the service was fab until it was time to pay. There was a misunderstanding with the bill, all of the £40 service charge wasn’t paid as a few people thought it was optional. In the end my friend payed the rest of the service charge and I didn’t think there was an issue. The woman serving us then stormed off and stood at the head of our table with her arms folded, shaking her head looking visibly angry. Genuine childlike behaviour and just a really unprofessional response to a situation. Don’t work in hospitality if you can’t professionally respond to a situation. Ruined what had been a fab time.

Absolutely fantastic. 1st came back in Feb 23 but just had cocktails. This time we had food too & we were not in any way disappointed : crispy curried fish & French dip steak sandwich, both delicious, flavours perfectly blended to complement the main component of the meal. Everything about our visit was perfect, from the service to the toilets... unfortunately I didn't take my phone to the toilet with me, but I was really impressed with them. It may seem odd to some people but alot of how I rate a place is based on their toilets, Alchemist toilets were not only really clean & not have that 'sewage' smell that some public toilets have, but they were stylishly decorated to a high standard which reflects the bar & restaurant. Well done team Alchemist, from one very satisfied customer... I'm definitely coming back.

I ordered an Old Fashioned which is me of the most famous drinks that any cocktail bartender should be able to make with their eyes shut. I was horrified to see them pour it from a premix over a ball of ice, with no other effort put in. No question of which bourbon would you like sir? No orange peel, no zesting no bitters. I tried it and all you could taste was sugar syrup. I have drink these the world over and can tell you this was the worst I’ve ever had. I took it back to the bar and asked for a refund and it took a long discussion, two managers and lots of protesting before I was given my money back. I then ordered a pint of Moretti and paid £7.40 for the Priceline. Avoid the Alchemist at all costs!

The Alchemist Greek Street is an absolute must-visit spot that I 100% recommend—no, I'm practically begging you to go! Brace yourself for an unforgettable experience. The performance of the drinks and the talented bartenders at The Alchemist Greek Street will leave you in awe. Their bartender skills are like a mesmerizing show, captivating both your eyes and taste buds. Watching them work their magic is an experience in itself. Now, let's talk about the drinks. Oh boy, they are deceptively delicious! If I didn't know any better, I would never have guessed they contained alcohol. They are so smooth and flavorful that they go down like a dream. I found myself sipping on these delightful concoctions without a care in the world. But hey, remember to pace yourself! These drinks may be sneaky, and their deliciousness can be dangerously addictive. They're like a potion that you can't resist. So, don't hesitate for a moment. Make your way to The Alchemist Greek Street and let the bartenders work their magic. Just be prepared to fall in love with their enchanting drinks. It's an experience you won't want to miss!

As you can imagine, 11am on a Sunday, flat out! We tried going in and standing at the bar, which in fairness did get a different result, as we were then ignored by 2 members of staff instead. It's not all bad though. The couple sat on the adjacent table had also been ignored, so they came with us to All Bar One next door and we all had a lovely afternoon drinking and eating in the sun. The Alchemist- Failing to turn ordinary punters hard earnt into Gold.

Visited for my friends birthday on a day drinking in Leeds. We visited early afternoon & it was pretty quiet. There was 7 of us. This was my very 1st visit to an alchemist & I was not disappointed. I love the way the drinks are done & presented. I ordered happiness was served in a hip flask. This was a strong drink but very nice. Will definitely go back

Like every Alchemist I’ve been to, you’re given a sense that you’re entering someplace exclusive and special And the grand stairs leading to the main entrance does just that A decent size inside, we arrived on a Weds evening and it wasn’t as busy as I’m sure it is on a Friday/Saturday We ordered cocktails for each other, not knowing how it would turn out This was fun as everyone feared the worst Turned out the drinks are so well concocted that even the maturest of our group accepted his Screwball, however much it embarrassed him to drink it as it resembled a child’s dessert, he thoroughly enjoyed it

Arrived here on a very quiet Thursday afternoon for pre show drinks . It is a very beautiful bar with lots of comfy booths . There was a photo shoot of the new cocktails taking place which inspired us to try the ones they were photographing. Definitely an expensive couple of hours but we enjoyed ourselves .

Chicken Dippers and Chips Prawn Lollipops so disappointing we have eaten before at Trinity and we thought it was excellent. Could not get into Trinity as event taking place. We realised afterwards we should have gone to Carluccios where the food would have been far better.

Busy busy busy. I'd say quite expensive and not the normal type of bar I'd go to, it's a reflection on me not the bar(I'd definitely have been there 20 years ago) If your looking for an expensive busy bar then this is your place. I just like a quieter place these days

Nicely presented bar, different clientele to the Trinity centre Alchemist, more mature crowd which we appreciated. One of the first cocktail bars I have been to with a decent range of cocktails. The picture is of the CBD spritzer which tasted really nice, not too sweet either, the ambience and music really added to the evenings vibe and my friend and I on our alcohol free weekend had a really good night out here.

Second visit here and after an outstanding first time, this time was disappointing. Most of vegetarian options were fried, unhealthy and not as adventurous as previous experience. Starter shrooms were very salty. Cocktails did not disappoint - don't mind pay extra for food but quality was not as great.

A very good selection of drinks, they were also very quick with making the drinks. we tried a few different cocktails and all of them were nice. I would prefer the music to be a bit less loud but that’s just my preference. Nice experience overall.

Really nice atmosphere at this venue. Visited there to meet with friends briefly before travelling. Very knowledgeable staff who recommended a sour beer based on flavours I liked. Never had one before but I am sold now! Lots of independent brewery drinks are stocked here so beer, ale and lager afficionadoes there will be something for every taste. Close to station for those who need to get on a train quick. I will be back again and spend more time.

First visit. Proper pub with real people who are generally polite and helpful to strangers. I really don't mind Sam's rules, and their drinks are decent. No real ale, but the stout is excellent.
