With us, every coffee has a story. Behind every bean, there are gestures, faces, know-how — we simply add our passion.

Our workshops are about sharing — unpretentious, but with high standards. We taste, we talk about extraction, roasting, and terroir. We discover that coffee is a whole world, not just a routine.

Come in, we have coffee and stories to share!
Our coffee shop is a bit like our open laboratory. We serve coffees that we roast on-site. The atmosphere? Simple. Lively. Often with the aroma of freshly roasted beans in the air. We talk about coffee, of course, but also about music, cycling, and the Belgian weather! Here, every customer matters, and so does every cup.

For coffee enthusiasts and snobs. Excellent coffee and service, it's well worth it to return frequently to try the different coffees. It's also a great place to buy accessories like filters, as well as specialty coffees.

This is my favorite café in Brussels. The specialty coffees are of exceptional quality, and the atmosphere is always pleasant, from the friendly staff and unique decor to the background music that I always enjoy! I recommend this place to anyone who loves coffee! Whether you want to enjoy the best cappuccino or discover the world of filter coffee. ✨😊

Do you love coffee in all its forms? It's small, it's charming... They roast on-site, and they also offer training courses here... They sell coffee, not the kind you find everywhere, but with incredible aromas... A wonderful discovery that we love to visit...

The story behind each cup
Alchemists is a family story.
Two brothers, a nephew, and the same desire: to make coffee properly, by hand, without cheating.
We started small, with a gas-powered machine, lots of trial and error, and immense respect for those who cultivate this product.
Since then, we have grown up, but the flame remains the same — blue, precise, and a little capricious.
We know we're just one link in the chain. So we do our part as best we can, so that the coffee retains everything that others have given it before us.

Let's talk coffee
A question, an idea, a desire to work together? Write to us. We'll reply as soon as the flame is out and the cup is set down.
