Stopped in when visiting next door bar, but was amazed by the extensive stock of quite rare and special liquors. Particularly impressed by Alec who proved to be not only extremely knowledgeable but welcoming and charming.

We had the BEST time at ABC! We saw it on maps and thought we'd stop in for a drink and maybe a quick bite. Little did we know we found our new favorite place! The service was so good, we sat at the bar and watched them create the charcuterie board right in front of us. Food was very reasonably priced and drinks were cold and delicious. After we ate we went and browsed the wine selection (3, 40ft shelves filled top to bottom) and left with 3 bottles of wine. There were screens around the room as well so we were able to watch college football. We will definitely be back!

This is a cozy chill spot where you can buy wine/beer or stay and enjoy a great meal or just a snack if you like. Inside and outside seating and numerous options to choose from- we enjoyed the fish tacos, pretzel, tuna and crab cake along with a round of beers. It's a nice casual spot when you don't feel like a long drawn out meal.

This place is a great hidden gem. All of the food is with local ingredients and the menu is super unique. They also have an in house sommelier so the wine selection is great.

So we went here to check it out for the 1st time on vacation.. seat your self sign so we went outside.. after a good 15 minutes I had to go in and ask for a server and menus. We ordered a dozen blue point oysters.. took over 25 minutes for them to come out and they were the smallest oysters I have ever seen.. then they gave us stale crackers.. very dissatisfied.. we didn't even want to wait any longer so we just ate the oysters and went to dinner somewhere else.. not to mention that they were $36! For one dozen.. and so tiny plus almost an hour for them.. we will not be going back.. the charcuterie boards looked good but make sure you have a lotttt of time to wait.

Did not expect this!! - Cool giant skeleton outside lured us in. The Beer side serves beer, wine, small plates. Great for sip & shop! We ended up indulging in one of the three choices of oysters- a dozen of them were opened and cleaned off the shell by Kurt (he cleaned them perfectly). A woman at the bar suggested a wine to pair with the seafood- and it was the best combination with the naturally and noticeably sweet oysters. What a great recommendation. The vibe and music were absolutely perfect. They even sell some Delta 8 Bloody Mary mixer 100mg (also Oyster Mignonette 250mg and Olive Oil 300 mg)! I fell in love with this place and we will continue to come by any chance we get.

We always drive by Alchemist on our way to get groceries, and every time we drive by we always say "that looks like a great atmosphere, we should go sometime" -- well I am pleased to say we finally went! Attached to their well-stocked liquor store is also a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. The patio area is decorated festively for Halloween currently.We dropped by on a busy Friday evening. It's open seating so we seated ourselves outside on the patio (love the patio!). They were short-handed I believe that evening because it took awhile for someone to come introduce themselves and take our order, but everyone was very kind and doing their best!We got beers on tap, which they list conveniently on a board they can bring to the table, the pesto chicken flatbread, and a charcuterie platter. We got the flatbread order in first. The flatbread was nice and crispy (but still substantial, not dry and crunchy), and the crust was very buttery. The chicken was not too dry either. Overall the flatbread met my expectations, though I would not come back just for the flatbread.Now the charcuterie board was really the star of our meal! You fill out a form with what you want, and each item is priced a la carte, so you choose your own selection and number. We tried 3 cheeses and 2 meats. The board comes with a jam, a mustard, a fruit & nut mix, some chocolate, and olives -- a perfect mix of savory, sweet, and spicy accoutrements. If you live nearby and are looking for a place for drinks, charcuterie, flatbread, and small plates with cozy, relaxed vibes, I recommend you check out Alchemist.

We have gone to ABC on multiple occasions. They have an amazing charcuterie selection as well as many other great dishes. The beer and wine selection is also pretty stellar. I would definitely recommend.
