Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2026 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!
This time, we’re taking over The Alchemist in Media City. A sleek, sexy cocktail spot that mixes theatrical drinks with major main character energy. Think low lighting, alchemy-inspired cocktails, and a playlist that doesn’t make you feel ancient. Sitting right on the water with those glassy Media City views, it delivers that effortless “I’m living my best life” vibe without even trying.
