Klub Alchemia Krakow

Feel the Kazimierz spirit & music

"Klub Alchemia (est. 1999) in Krakow is a place for music, drinks and events, where you can feel the true spirit of Kazimierz..."

Klub Alchemia is a place where you can have a coffee and eat something during the day, and have a drink in the evening. It's a place where music concerts take place regularly in the basement. It was founded in 1999 as a place for music and cultural events where extraordinary personas meet.

Many say it's a magical place.

You can literally feel the culture by spending time there - often, one of the rooms is used as a space for visual, temporary exhibitions (such as Krakow Photo Month).

Café by day

Thanks to the Alchemia od kuchni - a restaurant next door - during the day, besides something to drink, you can order a breakfast or lunch. Although the food is fine, the interior itself has the leading role. Vintage, antique furniture and accessories create a dreamy, bohemian atmosphere. For years, the smoking area was divided from the rest of the café by the wardrobe. To cross between the spaces, you had to walk into the wardrobe - just like in Narnia. Today, the smoking area is no longer there, but the wardrobe passing still remains.

Drink bar by night

As the sun goes down, the bar is more or less besieged (depending on whether there's a concert this evening). You can simply order a beer, but there's also a wine menu and tasty cocktail options.

The basement filled with sounds

On the official page of Alchemia, you can check the latest concerts and buy tickets for one of them.

Spoko

All good in the hood

A pub as local as "Spoko" is hard to find. in Krakow. Many of its products (like the amazing bagels) come from around the area, and the coffee is great, too.
