The Alchemist

The Alchemist is a cocktail-focused bar and mixology business at Shalma Road 28, in the Jaffa Flea Market area of Tel Aviv. Its work centres on cocktails, quality spirits and guided experiences built around drinks rather than a conventional restaurant menu. The venue suits visitors looking for a dedicated cocktail setting, as well as groups interested in learning how drinks are created and prepared.

The Alchemist offers cocktail workshops, including sessions focused on gin and tequila, alongside broader mixology masterclasses. These experiences place the preparation and balance of a cocktail at the centre, making the venue relevant to both curious beginners and people with an established interest in drinks. The business also provides cocktail bars for private events, with designed cocktail stations that bring the same drinks-led approach to celebrations and gatherings outside the bar.

The venue’s wider range includes cocktail kits for home use and an events complex connected to the Alchemist brand. Cocktail festivals are also part of its activity, adding a larger public-facing dimension to its focus on drinks and mixology. The result is a place with several ways to engage with cocktails: a bar visit, a practical workshop, an organised event or a kit prepared for serving elsewhere.

The setting in the Jaffa Flea Market area gives the bar a distinctly local context, while the concept remains centred on the craft and presentation of cocktails. The emphasis on carefully selected ingredients, spirits and service supports an experience-led style rather than a food-led one. Visitors seeking a full restaurant meal may find the venue better suited to drinks, cocktail education and event-based occasions.

The Alchemist works particularly well for cocktail enthusiasts, small groups planning a shared activity and event organisers looking for a dedicated cocktail service. Its workshops and event bars make it suitable for organised gatherings, while the main bar provides a place to explore the venue’s mixology focus. Opening arrangements, reservations and the availability of particular experiences should be confirmed directly before a visit.
