 A new Richmond coffee shop every day of the week 

 Midweek mood-boosters, students, and anyone who loves inventive coffee near campus energy

 on Broad Street. Just steps from VCU, this café is known for its specialty lattes, inventive seasonal drinks, and approachable vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can experiment with something new without overthinking it. Order a signature latte, or if you’re in the mood for simplicity, their drip coffee always hits right.

Being so close to campus, Alchemy has a lively mix of students, creatives, and locals. The space is colorful and full of energy, making it a great spot for catching up with friends, people-watching out the windows, or just soaking in the hustle of Broad Street.

Snap a photo of your drink (bonus points if it’s one of their fun seasonal lattes) or jot down a quick note about the crowd. By the end of the week, you’ll have a mini coffee map that shows how much personality each neighborhood café brings.
