The Alchemist Liverpool

Our Take

Theatrical cocktail wizardry where colour-changing concoctions arrive in bongs, smoking vessels, and test tubes because science apparently demands it. The kooky presentation isn't just Instagram bait — the cocktails are genuinely excellent, built on premium spirits and serious bartending craft. Happy hour deals make the premium menu accessible for afternoon sessions, while the luxurious Grade II listed surroundings justify treating daytime drinking as an occasion. The bottomless brunch at £40 offers passionfruit pancake stacks or chicken and waffles alongside two hours of theatrical unlimited drinks. Gets properly buzzing from afternoon onwards with a mix of groups celebrating something and solo drinkers who just appreciate exceptional cocktails. Liverpool's most dramatically presented afternoon drinking experience — in the best possible way.
