First off, this is clearly a destination. If you didn't care about first rate, artisanal cocktails in a comfortable, speakeasy setting, you wouldn't even know about Pangea. This was our third visit over the last couple of years, and it's always first rate. A real...gem. Excellent service in a singular setting. Hard to improve upon.More

Was in town for CONCACAF U20 Championships and was looking for a hip speakeasy... PANGEA does not disappoint, a bit shady to find. Small, Cozy and mysterious. Staff and crowd was hip and laidback, drinks and ability to please Premium, they create seasonal drinks that...beg to be discovered... Great Nooks for group convo’s or with a significant other. WELL PLAYED PANGEA, enjoyed my visit!More

Don't worry about the journey to find Alchemy Labs - through an alleyway lined with bins and puddles - the handcrafted cocktails are definitely worth the trip. Just a quick glance at the drink menu tells you the bartenders here know their trade...each drink as...unique and surprising as the next. The space itself it on the small side, but exudes exclusivity and the thrill of hanging out in a secret place. Service is warm and gracious...think of the staff as your own personal guide through this wonderland.More

We go to Pangea every single time we are in Sarasota, it never disappoints! The location is interesting and the cocktails are fantastic and creative!

We went in july for my husbands birthday with a friend who had been there previously. The drinks are amazing! The only reason I gave a four star as opposed to a five was the smell. Hopefully it was just the night we went but...it was not the best smell there? If they had that fixed it would’ve been a perfect experience. They handcraft their own cocktails in little medicine bottles. Very boutique feeling. Nice atmosphere. Lots of groups and couples lighting and ambiance is great! Will try again and hope the smell is gone.More

On a whim on St. Patrick’s day my best friend and I headed to Sarasota. We had gotten off to a late start, so we checked into our hotel and headed downtown. One of the main streets was closed off. We asked some cops what...areas to avoid and began to have fun. After fantastic tacos at Mother Truckin Food truck, a couple of locals steered us to Pangea, the Alchemy Lab. I love the name. The access is through the alley...intriguing indeed. We passed by the back doors of some restaurants, some with their own herb gardens, climbed a few stairs and walked through a black curtain entering a dimly lit, moody space. The cocktails are handcrafted by knowledgeable friendly staff. The ambiance, the comfortable seating, the food and drinks made for a sublime evening. The menu itself is beautifully presented as two oblong wood panels with parchment style pages. The Flourless chocolate cake with Amaretto mousse and smoked chocolate ice cream in perfect proportions were a delight to the eyes and heaven in my taste buds. I asked for a drink pairing and was rewarded with perfection of bubbles. The next evening found us back for a second visit, I’m glad my bff was a designated driver because I purposely had one too many...woohoo!! I am trying to find reasons to find myself in Sarasota just to go back here. Btw I noticed they have mainstays but change the drink menu.More

Fun place to have an interesting cocktail. Serious mixed drinks. Very good quality. Love the happy hour. Didn’t try the food, but will next time.
