About The Alchemists’ Kitchen

Stepping off Jetty Road into this Brighton beachside spot reveals blistered wood-fired pizzas, sharing platters, and an easy coastal pulse. Dough comes out charred, chewy, and remarkably light—with a dedicated gluten-free base baked in the wood oven so coeliacs never miss out. Regulars point newcomers straight to the alchemy of dips and the truffle mushroom pizza, finished with earthy sautéed mushrooms and fresh herbs. Pour your own vintage from home alongside proper stemware for a modest corkage, or order a shaken cocktail while platters of arancini hit the table.

  • Wood-Fired & Gluten-Free Dough: Pizzas emerge from the wood oven with a light, blistered crust, offered on dedicated gluten-free dough alongside traditional bases.
  • BYO Wine & Stemware: Guests can bring preferred bottles of wine with a $25 corkage fee and matching proper glassware provided at the table.
  • Shared Coastal Dinners: Evenings center on shareable spreads like the alchemy of dips, arancini, and truffle mushroom pizzas in an accommodating beachside room.

  • Effortless Family Celebrations

    Families dining with toddlers and infants receive thoughtful seating with ample pram space alongside generous personal touches from the team.

    they made sure they seated us at a table with plenty of room for the pram. They also gifted us a dessert to help us celebrate the special occasion. A very lovely touch!

    Diners manage severe allergies without stress thanks to floor staff who confidently navigate ingredients and suggest tailored dishes.

    She was made aware of my allergies and was able to cater to my concerns with ease. She recommended some fantastic dishes that went down a treat.

  • Light, Artisanal Wood-Fired Crusts

    Blistered, chewy bases and umami-rich toppings yield a full-flavored pizza that leaves diners feeling light rather than heavy.

    Some of the lightest/fluffiest pizza I've had in a long time without the oily/overfull feeling afterwards.

  • Coastal Shared Dining Vibes

    Shared tapas-style starters and wood oven creations create a vibrant setting for groups to connect and celebrate together.

    Had dinner last night in this very nice place in Jetty Road with great food, friendly service and a beachside vibe. Had a range of sharing starters, a couple of gourmet pizzas, and dessert; all really good.
