Just minutes from Aldgate Station, The Alchemist at Bevis Marks serves theatrical cocktails and modern European and international cuisine. When the occasion demands something a little more exclusive though, The Alchemist group and private dining offerings step up to the plate. This isn’t just a cocktail bar that happens to serve some properly impressive food, The Alchemist group dining experience is one of total immersion.
The interiors are warm, employing a red and amber colour palette along with the trademark copper accents to create a feeling of warmth all year round. The bar itself, features a wrap-around copper counter, reflecting the coloured glass of top-shelf bottles. Seating features both bar stools and elegant grey and umber banquettes, with quirky Gothic-styled illustrations and artworks. It’s eminently stylish and suited to a wide variety of events from corporate parties to graduation events and casual bottomless brunch birthday celebrations.
Group dining at The Alchemist Bevis Marks is flexible. Understanding that everyone’s requirements differ, whether it's a work mixer or engagement brunch anything is possible, and you’ll have a team on hand to ensure your event is tailored to your needs. And, if you’re looking to kick up the drama, groups greater than six can book a premium cocktail-making master class, at very reasonable prices. There are three packages available, for non-alcoholic mixology, light and dreamy cocktails, and theatrical and seriously flavourful cocktails like a ‘Dead Red Zombie’.
The Alchemist menu is impressive, offering breakfast, brunch, all-day sharing plates, and a la carte inspired by global influences and East Asian favourites. Expect a menu of elevated and playful classics, such as ‘The Hangover Killer’, a loaded breakfast bap with hot sauce. Other popular items include the crispiest chicken gyoza with viet chilli, sticky beef nachos perfect for group dining, and ‘Smoking boards’ with your choice of steak, plant-based goujons, and pork.
