OVER 400 GLAMOROUS GUESTS MADE THE MOST OF THE HOTTEST TICKETS IN TOWN FOR THE VIP LAUNCH PARTY FOR THE ALCHEMIST BAR AND RESTAURANT IN BRUNSWICK STREET.

Faces from the world of sport and television, including boxer Paul Smith, former Everton players Ian Snodin, Graeme Stuart and Graham Sharp, and LFC Legend John Barnes, joined actress Emma Rigby, X Factor and West End star Marcus Collins, Gemma Merna and a host of Hollyoaks cast at the star studded bash.

Guests were told their fortunes by an impressive Zoltar machine and as well  as  enjoying  a  selection of signature Alchemist cocktails and an array of sumptuous canapes along with the theatrical delights of a nitrous ice cream parlour. A Saxophonist and DJ ensured that the party went with a swing.

Proving to be a huge hit in the heart of the business district in Brunswick Street, The Alchemist officially opened to the public on Monday and has already wowed guests with their unique style of  adventurous  molecular mixology, alchemy and craftsmanship.  The Alchemist will open weekdays for breakfast from 8am and the food menu is an amalgamation of comfort food and cult classics, available all-day including Alchemist favourites such as blackened salmon, chicken in a basket, prawn lollipops and the sticky beef salad.

Simon Potts, Managing Director of  The Alchemist said “The feedback we have had so far during our first week of trading has been really wonderful to hear, from delight in the design, to how friendly our staff are. I am delighted that so many people have been able to enjoy tonight’s launch party and we look forward to welcoming them back in the weeks to come!”
