I stopped in looking for a unique birthday gift for a friend, and I absolutely loved the peaceful, welcoming vibe inside. The shop is well-curated with a wide variety of items for sale, including rare occult books, crystals, custom candles, and authentic Mexican folk magic supplies. I was really impressed by the service; the staff was incredibly knowledgeable and happy to answer my questions while I browsed. read more

They're amazing people behind the counter always knowing what you need. If they don't have it they tell you where you can go get it.

Fantastic, they have a great selection of useful witchcraft items, very careful and specific which I appreciate. Kind and knowledgable.

City Alchemist is a 10/10! Bought a candle for my mom to help bring $$ - she ended up being the top seller at her job that month. This place is the real deal read more

This is an absolutely STUNNING spiritualist and witch shop. I loved how well organized the store is while still having a ton of items to choose from. Alexis and Tito are both so amazing and kind. I got the pleasure of getting a tarot reading from Tito and it was fantastic. I'm still thinking about the reading days later. There is a wide array of items from books to tarot cards to candles to herbs to body products they have just about anything you could be looking for. The prices were definitely very reasonable as well. I was impressed with how in depth my Tarot reading was for the price. I really appreciated how knowledgeable the people who work here are. You can tell it's a small number of people on staff because they all know everything! Had an amazing experience here. Will certainly be back soon read more

Eric gave me a limpia last week that is the best I have ever received in the United States, and I have received many. He and Alexis are incredibly knowledgeable in their fields.

Stepping into City Alchemist creates this feeling of peace and bliss washing over you... Entering from East 6th's hustle and bustle into the quaint store run by Alexis & Eric is a truly wonderful experience.

These two are so knowledgeable and love educating others. Want a reading? They have that covered, too - be sure to book it on their website. Come in, take a look around, and grab a little of this or that. You won't regret it. read more

We LOVE spiritual shops and apothecaries, we just HAD to stop by before leaving Austin. The customer service was excellent, being able to connect with the young lady working was so nice!!! She complimented my friends dress and purse, it's so relieving to be able to talk to someone who has similar interests as us. Lots of charms, necklaces, wax, herbs, books, and tarot decks. Went in not wanting to spend money, but ended up buying a few items! Definitely worth the visit, loved their 2 alters at the entrance, always a nice offer to leave change. read more

The nicest people own this shop and they could probably tell we were there just being curious but they never treated us as so. I am interested in learning more about what all they have to offer but we did end up purchasing a skull from them. The store owners said how they felt a good presence with him in the shop and I believe it, as we feel the same having him in our home. Not everyone will understand the decision, but he is respected and we are honored to have him around. Definitely will be back. read more

I went to City Alchemist on Friday and had an opportunity to meet Eric J. Labrado. Eric was so kind, and very helpful. I walked in an immediately felt at home. I got some nice beeswax candles, a glass charm, and an amethyst bracelet. My FAVORITE item though is their book, Magia Magia. I love how the magia in the book has roots in Mexico but is really that of the Texas-Mexican border, where I was born. It really resonates with me because it's so familiar. This is the way my grandmother and tia did things as well. I highly recommend the book and a visit to the shop if you haven't been. -- at City Alchemist. read more

I have been to this shop several times. They always greet you and make you feel welcome. There is no ego or superficiality to the shopkeepers. They keep their shop clean and organized. The pricing is reasonable and their selection is vast and plentiful. If you can not find what you are looking for they are quick to offer up referrals to other vendors in the area. The best thing to me was they carry locally made goods as well. Each time I pop in they have new additions to their merchandise. Their book collection is comprehensive and includes rare books as well. They have many types of candles, oils, herbs, crystals and curios. My visits not only provide me with amazing items, but also a great sense of well being. The shopkeepers are extremely knowledgeable and pleasant. Their authenticity is a rarity and is the highlight of my day, when I am able to make my way to visit their establishment. I highly recommend you check this spot out, you won't be disappointed! read more

Had a cool selection of different items. I have never seen human bones for sale but they have them if that's what you're looking for.

I cannot describe how incredibly helpful and insightful Alexis and Eric are. Not only are they willing to go above and beyond in answering questions, they are two of the kindest and most patient people you will ever encounter. They answered all of my questions and gave me exceptionally helpful advice. Their products are truly magical and amazing while also being practical. I highly recommend their store and cannot wait to visit again. read more

Was suggested this shop for a talisman I've been looking for and left with so much more. Tito was very knowledgeable and guided me when I let him know what I was needing. He dressed my candles and took time helping me set my intentions. There was also a tarot card reader named Yamil who gave me an un-sugarcoated but incredibly clarifying read. This place is the real deal even though it's nestled in the middle of the city. Will be back very soon. read more

For those that are African diasporic practitioners, latinx practitioners or even just European bc they do have stuff for European practices too, this store is like honeydukes. An interesting array of occult books and staff is accommodating and especially to those finding their practice. Also location is just cool read more

My favorite shop in town; very welcoming with incredibly knowledgeable staff who are always willing to offer their expertise. I grew up hearing about the curanderas in my own family. As I've frequented the store, they've given me the tools to learn the greater context of those memories and to find a way to embrace those practices today. I'm so grateful for the guidance and connection that I've been given. read more

Nice, clean and organized store. I dig the psychic that was in the store and the Delta CBD truck parked in the lot next door.

I love this place. My daughter and I go in here often for stones and incense. the staff is friendly knowledgeable and patient with everyone who walks in. They cleanse the place everyday and you can feel the good and positive energy as soon as you walk in. the tarot reader is spot on and cute and funny. if you want answers to questions you don't even want to ask yourself go there and you will get what you need. love them all. read more

Went for the first time to buy a special Incense burner and one of the owners Alexis struck up a convo about it and was surprised he knew so much about the Aztec diety the Copalero was shaped after. Both owners Eric and Alexis are super knowledgeable about the products they sell and are super friendly. The Items they sell are really rare to find in this part of Texas. The shop is amazing and has an amazing vibe. 10 out of 10. Definitely a staple in the Austin esoteric community. read more

A real gem of a store led by some gracious and informative people. Do stop in the next time you're looking to add to your human bone collection, which is a totally legal. Also, do not make jokes about Sublime's "Santeria" to the staff. It is a bad joke to make and that song was never that good anyway. read more

Always love coming here! The owners are so nice and the shop always has whatever I need! I love the environment so much!

A welcoming little metaphysical shop. Primarily focused on Mexican beliefs, but with touches of ideologies of other cultures. Even had a card reader available, and was glad to see someone sit down for a reading while I was there. Even though the space was small, there was definitely a lot they offered. Worth stopping in. read more
