BIZNOTE: Alchemy opening date delayed

| West Seattle news | West Seattle restaurants | WS beverages

If you were hoping to be among the first to try the cocktails and small plates at Alchemy, you’ll have to wait a little longer. We were first to report last month that the new bar/lounge was planning to open in the West Seattle Junction on April 28th; since that’s this Friday, we checked in today with spokesperson Sara Ryan to see about a preview, and she told us the opening had been “pushed.” No new date yet. It’s one of two new enterprises that F2T Hospitality is opening at Junction 47 (California/Alaska/42nd), as first reported here last June.

I hope they let the people know who made reservations for opening night. Alchemy is still advertising that on Facebook as of right now, and 601 people have RSVP’d.

The Facebook page lists opening weekend as May 12.

That is an update from yesterday, as they indeed hadn’t updated the April 28th date on social media when we published this story (which again, is sourced to the restaurant’s PR spokesperson, with whom we checked yesterday morning as part of a long list of followups to start the week, and she told us they hadn’t yet chosen the new date). Thanks!

As of today, they are still advertising a grand opening on 4/28 (tomorrow) on Facebook. So…if anyone from Alchemy sees this, you need to cancel or correct the Facebook advertising!

The header on the FB page says “opening weekend, 5/12”:

  Yep, I can see that. It’s the Facebook ad that is everywhere in my feed that is still wrong. It’s probably based on whatever was submitted when they paid Facebook for the ad still.

Sorry, comment time is over.
