One of our favourite bars in town! The cocktails are super unique looking but more importantly taste spectacular. It's on the more expensive side but totally worth all the hype. The interior design is very picturesque and the service is very welcoming. Excited to come back one day. read more

Pretentious cocktail bar going for quasi speakeasy vibe. They try to act exclusive by having velvet rope when plenty Of tables. They claim care more for quality than quantity though everyone who waited got in. Maybe does keep out those who would walk in and leave. Drinks were okay and the show with some of the drinks with the teapot were fun. read more

Great tasting menu. Super variation of ingredients and cooking techniques. Often the simplest dishes tasted the best but I can appreciate the craftsmanship of each dish. Service was also fantastic. As a solo diner without drink pairing, I finished in a bout 90 minutes. read more

So close to perfect The bartenders are very energetic and knowledgeable in the drinks. Fun little "prohibition/ speakeasy moment" they share with you. The one bartender does speak a little too fast, but fairly understandable. We had the Martini Tiramisu, White Truffle Pisco Sour, Apolo and the Old Fashion that you have to find with a black light. The music is great jazzy jams. We came her after enjoying 2023's best bar in the world, Sips. Definitely a great follow up bar to Sips. The decor creates a warm cozy atmosphere. I personally think it rivals in creative cocktails but without the excessive presentation. We ordered the oysters with caviar and they use little droppers for their different "sauces" for the oysters (lemon juice, mignonette, yuzu and another Asian sauces that tastes like a cross between the lemon juice and mignonette). Next we had the Creamy Indian which was amazing. If you don't like truffle, not a dish for you. Eat in one bite and it's an explosion in your mouth. (Personally, a little too much cream, but definitely tasty.) Lastly, we had the Bloody Lobster. Very different but honestly, the lobster is a little fishy for my taste. The overall experience has been amazing! It is a great follow up to Sips (which does not serve food, save for little snacks). If I was judging solely based on service and love of their craft I would TOTALLY give 5 stars. It's just that I am VERY particular about my personal food tastes. That aside, I can honestly say you should definitely come and try Alchemix for yourself. You won't be sorry ! read more

A very enjoyable and interesting experience. I went with two colleagues from work and had the tasting menu and accompanying tasting cocktails. All of the dishes were beautiful looking and the cocktails quite interesting. I don't think I ever had a meal like it before. While all the dishes looked beautiful, the taste was good but not great. Very little of the taste was very memorable, very Instagramable and nothing was bad (I ate every bite) but the taste did not match the appearance. I also enjoyed the cocktails but for me it seemed a bit much, by the last couple not really looking forward to more, in part because they were generally quite sweet and felt heavy/sugary. That said, I did enjoy the experience and the service was incredible, am very happy I went. read more

Stopped here after visiting Sips. I have to say that I was equally impressed by the libations created here. (& They're a little more quaffable in my opinion) The place has a US prohibition speakeasy theme without the secrecy We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted by Erick and Carlos. They answered any questions we had about the menu and happily made whatever we liked. I started with the white truffle pisco sour and it was DELICIOUS. Then I saw them... Mrs Pots and little chip on the back bar I just had to order that drink A lovely gin concoction With a little fanfare :) To eat we ordered the bloody lobster and the golgappa Both were tasty small bites to go with our drinks Nacho even came out to speak with us about the dishes We had already eaten earlier or we would have definitely explored more of his food menu. This place was one of the highlights of my trip and if/when I come back to Barcelona I will be back HIGHLY RECOMMEND read more

The Alchemix is an experience like no other. The bartenders are the most lively and fun bartenders I've ever interacted with and they have very interesting stories for each of their drinks. The Mrs. Potts and chip drink was so creative and fun and it tasted fruity and fun. The bubbles on top of the drink also had a ton of flavor and I was just so overwhelmingly impressed with this entire drink. El Colima was so cool with very impressive presentation and a fun dry ice spectacle! It tasted like sweet mango with fruity notes all over. Absolutely delicious!! The Viking comes in a magnificent Viking horn to drink from. It was sweet and yummy! This place was by far our favorite stop in Barcelona and I'm so happy I got to try it! The owner also has such deep history with each of the decorations and pieces and it was a lot of fun to learn about his stories and experiences. Such an impressive place and a magnificent find! Thank you Alchemix! read more

I'm a world traveler and this is the best dining experience I've had! At the first meeting of Senior Nacho (owner), you could feel his passion and love for what he's doing. The place is beautifully designed with unique artifacts collected over 25 years from different parts of the world. We were entertained with the story telling of some of the pieces and were delighted to hear them! There's 2 tasting menus. One is 8 course for €72 and 12 courses for €120. We initially picked the 8 course + mini cocktail/wine pairing of €38 (you should definitely do the drink pairing as its just the complete experience!). I don't even drink regularly, but I love their cocktail innovations! 1st course was Normandy oyster with imperial caviar and 4 different sauces to taste. Absolutely fresh and we loved being able to pick different sauces based on our liking (our favorite was the 2nd one, vinaigrette) 2nd course was smoked salmon marinated with beets and with beer mustard sauce and wasabi fish eggs. There was a mini pine tree plant that was torched so we could experience the scent while enjoying the smoked salmon And at this moment, we have decided that we don't want the experience to end, so we asked to go for the full menu which was €120 + €55 for drinks pairing (and if I could redo it, I will go for the full menu + drinks pairing again) I won't spoil the rest of the course but it was a magical experience! I highly recommend the full experience + drinks pairing. We are surprised they don't have a Michelin star but I'm sure they will soon! This is definitely one of the top restaurants in Spain! read more

Tbh, I don't understand why this places does not yet have a Michelin star rating. My friends and I came for drinks and ended up loving it so much that we came back a second night for the tasting menu with cocktail pairing. The first night, we had a few drinks, most of which came with a spectacular show. All were very delicious drinks! (The last one hit pretty hard ). The bartenders/servers/"alchemists" (whatever you would like to call them) were all very amicable and attentive. Our friends and I decided at the end of the night that we had to come back to bring our friends who were arriving to Barcelona later than we did. The second night was the tasting menu. We did not expect much, but left with an amazing experience. The food was amazing and fresh. The artisanal cocktail pairings matched well with the food. The servers were knowledgeable in the dishes brought out. Overall, my friends and I were extremely satisfied with the food, service, and ambience! read more

Don't hesitate - just go! SO good! Food/drinks: did I say this was SO good! We started with the white truffle pisco sour (yum!!) and the other recommended pre-meal cocktail (also yum). We didn't do the tasting menu and instead ordered 5 plates to share: chicken satay (heard it was AMAZING, but didn't partake), cockles (mollusks in yummy light curry sauce), lobster tartare (out of this world with lobster,wagyu jerky, caviar, tomato, and deliciousness), eggplant tartare (also amazing - one of the best eggplant dishes I've had; explosive flavors), and pork ribs (good but least favorite and I could have done without). This was more than enough food for 2. I had a glass of dry white with the meal (meh) and - my fav - the Thai-inspired coconut milk cocktail for dessert that came with some plantain/banana chips. Service: 5 star. Very attentive but not overbearing. Really lovely and helpful. Top! Ambiance: Beautiful, simple, and thoughtful environment that matched the world-inspired, nature-centered menu. Our reservation (via the Fork) was for 8:30 p, and there was no one! Within the hour, 4 other tables filled, creating a bit more of a lively ambiance. An absolute highlight of my first time in Barcelona! A little off a path I would have seen but the absolute best place to end my trip! read more

Great drinks and especially great craftsmanship for the drinks! The bartenders were experts making drinks and had enthusiasm while showing us how the drinks were made. I definitely recommend coming here to get fun/delicious drinks. I enjoyed the Mrs. pots drink and the coconut drink We also shared a few appetizers that were good. We really enjoyed the curry clams, the ribs and the croquettes. The potato with crispy blood sausage was underwhelming. I will definitely come back here next time I'm in Barcelona! read more

Another amazing mixology bar in Barcelona! We passed by The Alchemix in our cab home the night before and looked it up. It looked like a neat spot so we decided to check it out the next night. When we got there we thought it was closed (we got there just a few minutes after it opened so there wasn't really any customers in there yet) and the doorway was blocked with a velvet rope. The bartender saw us and said he would be right out. We figured they just forgot to remove it before opening but we shortly realized they did that so that they could create an experience for guests and control the flow of customers. It was a neat little touch! We did not have reservations (they do a whole tasting menu with cocktails, etc) but we were fine with sitting at the bar because we just wanted a drink. We actually preferred sitting at the bar because we got to watch all the neat cocktails get made! They had an amazing list of cocktails every one was unique with a story and the glassware was specific to the drink. I got the Viking drink as my first drink which came in a horn. My friend got a pumpkin drink with some middle eastern flavors and it came in a gourd. There were cloves under her cup in a little dish that the bartender lit on fire so that the smells would remind her of the flavors of the middle east. We were so impressed with the cocktails and the hospitality that we decided to cancel our dinner reservation and stay for another round. My second drink was the Prohibition old fashioned that is a secret menu item only visible with a blacklight. It was made with house infused red pepper bourbon and tobacco bitters. I'm not a huge red pepper or tobacco fan but I figured why not and I was not disappointed at all! The drink exceeded my expectations. My friends second drink was something to do with Thailand and it had coconut and a bunch of other yummies. She was unsure about it but the bartender urged her to do it and she ended up loving it. Aside from the drinks, the bartenders Luis and Guiermillo were so friendly! They answered all of our silly touristy questions and gave us a few recommendations. We didn't know that you needed a reservation for Park Guell and they were all booked so Luis told us about a spot nearby where we could get a similar view for free! The Alchemix was one of our favorite stops in Barcelona and a lot of it had to do with how friendly Luis and Guiermillo were. Next time I'm back in Barcelona I want to check out their food! Can't wait to go back! read more

Very trendy bar with lots of reference to the prohibition era in the US. The staff tries hard to make you feel welcome, at times succeeds and at times it feels a bit over the top. Alcohol selection is limited although it seems at first it's varied and misleading imo. If your into the razzle and dazzles of making drinks and a cool atmosphere that serves expensive drinks with cheap alcohol this is your place. read more

Beyond rude and disrespectful management aka owner. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all cost unless you want to be treated horribly!!!! As a tourist, feeling respected and safe in a foreign country should be of most importance. Shame on you!!! read more

Another great cocktail bar in Barcelona. Had the Viking Soul which is their take on an upscale Viking mead and presented in a Viking horn. Way too easy to drink. All the workers were very friendly and helpful. read more

This is a super cool bar with amazing bartenders, unique drinks and a unique interior look! I ordered La Noche de Avecina, along with the hidden special drink. Video of the special drink is in my review! I stayed and chatted with one of the bartenders who came to Barcelona from Argentina! read more

We wanted to like this restaurant very. Several of the dishes were really stand out. The duck was incredible. So was the caviar. But the sea urchin approached gross. Hard to get past that. And not in a "sea urchin is challenging" sort of way. We love it generally. The drink pairings were also a huge miss. Overly sweet concoctions that served to diminish the flavors of the food and left a sticky Slurpee-like sugar residue in your mouth. Service was great and the space is very cool. We might have been in an off night. read more

Came across the bar with my friends. First thing we noticed was the authenticity and originality of their bar. Bartender/Co-owner Nacho was super welcoming and informative of the entire concept. Super tasty, crafty, and interesting drinks. Their restaurant is a taste-menu which fuses the cultures of Asia and Catalonia. If looking for great experience and tasty drinks/food, I fully recommend this joint. read more

¡Qué tesoro! La comida es increíblemente buena y te hace viajar a través de varias texturas y sabores. Tomamos el maridaje de "vino" con mini cócteles fantásticamente diseñados. La ambientación es muy intimista, y la música allí, de fondo, no es disruptiva como puede haberla en algunos lugares. El personal es muy atento y discreto. ¡Lo recomiendo encarecidamente y volveré a probar el segundo menú! read more

Phenomenal brand new gastropub in the heart of Barcelona specializing in mixology and the ultimate unique drinking experience ! This venue opened only two months ago, website is still under construction. We happened to be staying at an Airbnb across the street and stopped in for a drink. Outside, the sign is venerable yet unassuming; however once you enter it's like walking into a different world! The decor is modern with a prohibition flare and there is the utmost attention to each and every detail throughout the bar and restaurant areas. We put our trust in the bartender and he made some of the most sensational, exciting drinks that we've ever had! I say exciting specifically because sitting at the bar as the bartender was concocting everything we ordered, he explained the inspiration and steps behind each drink as he went (providing the coolest videos!!) and absolutely radiated passion for what he was doing. Our quick stop for a drink before dinner turned into an exceptionally memorable experience (+drinks!) and I would absolutely recommend stopping in to see it for yourself! You won't be disappointed. read more

all I have to say is "Wow." I just came from Sips (#1 bar in the world) which I had a good experience, but Alchemix blew it out of the water. The Pumpkin Lassi (best drink), Tiramisu martini (#2), Arashi Spirit, and the Khao Tom Mad... amazing experience. initially we just stumbled in for drinks... we now made a reservation for their prefix with mini cocktail pairing. I can barely hold my excitement. Please ask for Ignacio who gave us the most enlightening tour of the restaurant chalk full of artistic flair and attention to detail. definitely a memorable experience I will remember for life. No cap. Try the pumpkin Lassi. if you don't share that same enlightenment after a sip, we can't be friends. read more

What a wonderful place. Stopped in on a whim while waiting for our group to be complete to go out for the night and had no clue what we had just discovered. Upon sitting down at the bar the the atmosphere was relaxed but still exciting. It was fun to just sit an explore the Decor of the place. Our group trusted the recommendation of our bartender who turned out to be one of the owners. It truly is exciting to see someone in their element and so passionate about the job they do. Every drink we had was crafted down to the detail. As well the ingredients being explained and why they were added. My favorite was "The Viking" This will definitely be one of the first stops on a return trip to Barcelona and possibly another to one of their other 3 locations they have throughout the world. read more

Overpriced. And not a Gastropub. Small tapas are offered at 5 Euros for EACH piece. The wine list is decent, but per glass or bottle, it is too much money for the wines being offered.

Honestly, my favorite experience in Barcelona. Our server, Nacho, truly went above and beyond. Each drink has a story, and it comes with quite a show.

Great place for out of towners they explain all their mixology very well in English and cater the cocktails to your preference.

This place has the COOLEST concept. Spoke with the owner who created this restaurant with Spanish and Thai influences. Only came here for drinks, but we ended up coming back twice because it was so great! The drink menu is small, but they are so intricate and well-crafted. The Khao Niao Mamuang was the best drink I've ever had. It tastes exactly as it's described. The servers/bartenders were so knowledgeable and passionate about their menu. I really loved this place and will recommend to others. Will have to come back to try their food in the future. read more

I love a well crafted cocktail, and the guys here at Alchemix went way above and beyond my expectations. The atmosphere is mad scientist meets Pottery barn, in the best way possible - I love the version of the periodic table that they have behind the main bar. The cocktail book itself is a work of art in itself, each concoction is paired with a brief intro explaining the inspiration behind each drink, whether it be a region or the world (the Jalisco and Thai drinks were amazing) or a time in history (prohibition) or a story (Beauty and the Beast and Game of Thrones!) as well as the major notes behind each drink - floral, sour, smoky, etc. You can tell the bartenders here are really passionate about what they do, and the time and effort they put into each drink does not go unnoticed. Between the three of us, we sampled almost every drink on the menu. Not only are the presentations incredible - the Mrs Potts came with an actual "steaming" teapot (dry ice) that put out yummy floral fragrances, my prohibition cocktail was tobacco smoked in a glass case at the table - each drink is complex and well balanced and absolutely delicious! Though the prices are a bit higher than the 5€ cocktails that you can find elsewhere in this neighborhood, you're paying for quality ingredients as well as a fantastic show. I really cannot recommend Alchemix enough! read more
