Alchemist Coffee Project
698 S Vermont Ave, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused café treats every cup like an art form, from their signature creative drinks to the latte art they sneak onto to-go cups. While their specialty beverages like the Spanish Latte and iced offerings earn genuine enthusiasm from regulars, expect premium pricing and modestly sized pours that spark strong opinions. The vibe balances quick coffee runs with cozy sit-down moments, backed by genuinely friendly service that keeps people coming back.”

What is this A LATTE FOR ANTS!? 7$ for a miniscule oat milk latte that was decent at best and not even filled to the top. I don't know where they get off charging these prices. For Pete sakes the cup is too small for the sleeve. The parking situation here is awful too...instead of paying for the valet and overpriced latte just open your own coffee shop it'll be cheaper.
Alchemist Coffee Project @ LA Great coffee spot with impressive attention to detail. Even the to-go cups have latte art, which was a nice surprise. I ordered the Spanish Latte & the Signature Misugaru Latte — both were good. The shop itself is small, but parking is easy since it’s located in a plaza, which makes stopping by very convenient. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy specialty coffee and something a little different.
I discovered this café by chance while walking around Los Angeles. The service is quick and very friendly. I spent some time there with my wife, she had an almond milk cappuccino, and I had an iced hibiscus tea.
I love this coffee shop! The coffee is excellent — this was my second visit, and it was just as good as the first. If you ever find yourself in Welshell, definitely stop by this place. Highly recommend their coffee!
During our visit to the city, we tried this popular cafe, but it didn't quite meet our expectations. The Matcha Latte felt a bit diluted, and we found the pricing to be on the higher side. The bacon scone was okay, although it, too, was priced rather steeply for the quality and the size. The ambiance of the place was pleasant—comfortable and clean. However, we felt that the service could be improved. As first-time visitors, we had a few questions, but the staff member kept informing us that he would call our names when our drinks were ready instead of answering. I had read several reviews mentioning friendly staff, so perhaps this staff member was having an off day. Overall, there is room for improvement.
