Alchemist Coffee Project

Best matcha latte I've ever had! Also got the kimchi avocado toast which was surprisingly really good.

Fantastic drinks, great music, and an awesome staff! I highly recommend the strawberry croissant. The Egg Bat sandwich was delicious, and the duo latte really had a strong kick to it.

Great selection of coffee and drinks, nice friendly service and good place to meet a friend or get some work done. We had Tiramisu Latte, Lavender Matcha and Mocha Latte and all were amazing. View menu

This is an excellent coffee spot in K-town for hanging out. If you're a fan of matcha, I highly recommend trying their Lavender Matcha Latte—it's delicious! The customer service is top-notch, and the overall atmosphere is wonderful. Make sure to pay this place a visit!

Excellent little place conveniently located in the corner and with lots of street parking, as well as structured parking across the street (free 60 mins). Their coffee was delicious and their avocado toast was just right. The only issue I have is that they only have one size cups and I'm a coffee drinker, I would appreciate a larger choice.

I had an hour to spare before my next appointment, so I decided to check out this café. Since I had just had lunch, I only had room for dessert and coffee. The ambiance was relaxing, and the cashier recommended a great pairing of coffee and a muffin. This spot is perfect for a casual meetup or studying. It was an ideal place for me to dive into the next chapter of my latest book. View menu

We ordered two tiramisu lattes and some pastries. The pastries were decent, but the lattes were truly disappointing. To start, both drinks, which were supposed to be identical, had completely different flavors. The taste of tiramisu was hardly detectable in either of them. Anyone who has seen an advertisement for this drink should steer clear; it’s not enjoyable and feels like a waste of money. Additionally, parking is paid, and the café was quite noisy. Our table was shaky, making us feel like it might topple over. Overall, I can't recommend this place! On a positive note, the baristas were friendly.

What a wonderful experience at this coffee shop! The contemporary design was beautiful, creating a cozy and welcoming ambiance. The lavender matcha was delightful—perfectly balanced and refreshing. Meanwhile, the vegan truffle avocado toast was a flavor explosion that left me wanting more. This place truly offers an impressive menu, making it a must-visit for any coffee and food lover. Just a heads up: parking can be quite crowded during peak hours from 11 AM to 3 PM, as it's part of a shopping complex. However, if you tip the valets generously, they do a fantastic job with parking. The ideal time to go is between 8 AM and 10 AM.

Situated in K-Town and formerly home to Bourbon Street Café, Alchemist Coffee Project aims to compete with renowned coffee shops like Intelligentsia, Blue Bottle, and LA Mill. They source high-quality beans from Onyx and offer a range of brewing temperatures and styles. Despite its New Orleans roots, the vibe feels distinctly "Los Angeles," with the staff embodying that classic aspiring actor-waiter persona. After browsing through their pastries and brewing equipment, I decided to try a cold brew priced at $5.50. The service was friendly, and the drink itself was exceptional—dubbed "the Elixir," it had a light sweetness and delightful floral afternotes. View menu
