The Alchemist, Monument, EC3

No cask obviously. Small keg offering of Guinness, Brixton Reliance Pale Ale, Moretti and Asahi.

This is a newly opened (at date of visit) branch of the chain not too far from Monument tube. Typical plush interior with bar counter along the left-hand wall starting near the entrance. Some patterned tiles along the bar counter but other than that dark and light sections of bare boards. There is a long leather banquette winding its way around the right-hand wall from the entrance with tall wooden tables and what look like v expensive leather backed tall stools the other side thereof. A couple of gold coloured metal tables filled around the two central pillars with the same type of stools before Booth tables in the rear corner and around the dog leg off the back right corner. Lighting is low and the music predictably ambient and loud!
