Alchemy Specialty Coffee is a great little spot with a relaxed vibe. I stopped by for a couple of Americanos and was served by Walter, who was friendly and quick. The coffee was excellent—smooth, well-balanced, and exactly what I needed. Prices were very reasonable too. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area and need a caffeine fix.

Absolutely love this place! The staff is very welcoming and professional. I tried almost all bean varieties as V60. Columbia Geisha and Mexico Fatima Carbonic are especially good

An excellent coffee shop Thanks a lot to barista Jesus, who was very attentive, highly skilled and knowledgeable. He knew a lot about coffee preparation and made a cup that was smooth and of perfect taste and consistency (and also beautiful ) It is a place where you can drink really good and well-prepared specialty coffee. Highly recommend to specialty coffee lovers!

This place is awesome and the employees are super friendly. I love the fact that they ask if you want a different type of milk a friend of mine always has to ask at the cafes and here they freely give the option! And both the coffee and food are divine. Definitely coming back here the next time I am in Madrid!

It’s a small but very cozy place. Everything we had was fresh and delicious. The coffee was also quite good. We went there for breakfast, but unfortunately couldn’t try the cookies and cakes because we were already too full — they definitely caught our attention though! The staff member was very kind and friendly, and we’d like to thank them especially for their warm hospitality.

Alchemy Coffee in Madrid is a tiny, cute spot with a chill, curated vibe. They pull shots on a beautiful Slayer machine, and you can tell they care about the craft. I had a flat white—smooth, with a medium-to-dark roast profile that still felt balanced. The baristas were warm and easy to talk to. Apparently, they’ve got a bigger location nearby, and I’d totally go back to check it out.

We stopped by this café and really enjoyed the coffee. We had a flat white and a double espresso—both were excellent, and we appreciated the option to choose between different coffee beans. The barista was super friendly and in a great mood, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was warm and filled with lots of plants, giving it a relaxed feel. The seating wasn’t the most comfortable for eating, but it worked fine for a short stay. We tried the Italian and pastrami sandwiches—both were tasty. The café itself felt a bit run down which should be improved. Overall, a solid spot for a good coffee break!
