Alchemy Coffee Roasters

Alchemy Coffee Roasters is a coffee shop that specializes in artisan roasted coffee. Founded in 2016 by Conrad Hoffmann, a former South African rugby player who fell in love with coffee while living in Australia, Alchemy brings fresh ideas to the coffee culture of South Africa. They roast single origin beans on-site several times per week, ensuring the freshest and best flavors possible for their handcrafted coffee beverages. The name Alchemy was inspired by the idea of transformation and creation, a fitting name for a place where coffee is not only made but transformed into something magical.

What people say

Alchemy Coffee Roasters is a coffee shop that truly lives up to its name. The owner, Conrad Hoffmann, has brought his passion for coffee from Australia to Cape Town and transformed it into an artisanal experience. What sets Alchemy apart is their commitment to roasting single origin beans in-house several times a week, ensuring the freshest and most flavorful cup of coffee possible.

The inspiration behind the name "Alchemy" comes from Paulo Coelho's book "The Alchemist", which speaks to the magical process of transformation and creation - something that can be experienced with every sip of their handcrafted coffee.

Conrad's dedication to his craft is evident in every aspect of Alchemy Coffee Roasters, from the carefully selected beans to the expertly brewed cups of coffee. Whether you're a coffee connoisseur or simply looking for a great cup of joe, Alchemy is definitely worth a visit.
