The Alchemist is famous for their creative cocktails and delicious dining. Experience their decadent Alchemy Cocktail Brunch, available every weekend.

Cocktails are created with an obsessive eye for detail, presented in mystical vessels delivering theatre for every guest. The bartenders know how to put on a show and guarantee to charm and entertain. Try the guest favourite 'Colour Changing One' where you conjure the drink by mixing yourself and watch the liquid change from blue to pink before your very eyes. Or try the show-stopping Cherry Poppins. This gin-based cocktail is served with a cherry fog bubble ready for you to burst and release its aromas. It's a scientific lab waiting to be discovered.

The food is special too with a menu served from breakfast until late evening. The menu is an eclectic mix of classic dishes with an Alchemist twist. Favourites include Katsu Curry, Smoking Boards, Curried Fish and Steak. Why not try their weekend Alchemy Cocktail Brunch, every weekend from 10am. Choose three cocktails and any brunch dish, with the option of making drinks bottomless for just £10 extra!

Perfectly located overlooking Canalside in Gunwharf Quays, and within strolling distance of the magnificent Spinnaker Tower, The Alchemist Portsmouth is just a short walk from Portsmouth Harbour Station.

    The crispy shrooms are a recommendation as they had umami, crisp and still with juice. I enjoy going to the Alchemist for their drinks which have a picture to show what container they would come in. However, I would point out that the rump steak was £20, and the portion size could be questionable. Perhaps in comparison to other places, this place feels that it could have had a review on their rump to have its value in comparison to other dishes. Overall, the atmosphere was ambient and good to converse in, music came louder when it got later. Service at the start was proactive.

    Great place for cinematic drinks ! We were also very surprised about the food, and the quality of service provided, even though it's a smaller good menu they have quite some plates to cater to different needs.
