Click here for ABBA location of Alchemist at The Mill 5 Jalan Kilang #02-02 Singapore 159405
The mill is a unique piece of architecture which is reminisce of Park view Square, a.k.a Gotham/Batman Building located across from Bugis Junction (Home to the largest Gin Collection and a great Gatsby architectural feel to the place.) 
 
This architecturally interesting building is located amongst the light industrial area and juxtaposes the surrounding buildings. Alchemist is located on the second story which offers good coffee and a small array of pastries.
The place in all honesty was smaller than expected but it has its picturesque corners and sleek design. A great atmosphere for a cuppa and to enjoy the bespoke architecture.
Abbatips:
- Park opposite as the downstairs parking are restricted for tenants only.
- Enjoy the architecture of the place as well as the wall paintings which reminds one of the many
statues and paintings in Rome Italy
- Look out for a cool vintage car or two in the tenant's parking lots. 
Ordered on:
9thJan22
Food 4/5
Coffee has a nice roast and good flavor.
The pastries may not be to the standard of Tiong Bahru Bakery (one of many chained places in Singapore) but its paired very nicely with the cuppa.
Total Fed 4 SGD30.50
Ambience 4/5
*Total package along with the architecture*

Service 4/5
Being the only patrons the staff were very friendly and offered baby chinos (just steamed milk) for the kids and arranged the tables to better accommodate the orders. Further more they were very kind to answer my queries on where the coffees were from and about pourover coffees. Am by no means a connoisseur of good coffee but it is very reminiscent of artisanal coffee like the famous Blue Bottle Cafe in San Francisco which is much touted by bean lovers. 
Value 3.5/5
Great place to pop in for an in between ‘attraction’ for great coffee, nice architectural lines and maybe spot some fancy vintage wheels.
