The Exchange Coffee, Mercantile & Eatery

Great coffee, service can be a bit more customer oriented. A few of these ladies have mastered the art of acting as you did not exist while they arrange flowers at the pickup station. I had to dodge 2 workers carrying scalding coffee right by me without making eye contact. I've seen this place busy and it has operated better than this. This is just a random Thursday, so who knows...just a bad day. My order was given to me and I was told to have a nice day, without giving me the entire order. Seriously worry about the customers, not how cool your shop looks.

Place used to be a household favorite to go for dinner. Coffee and ambience are great, but the cafe dramatically scaled back their afternoon/evening food options to a menu that isn’t even worth looking at.

You can still get the full menu until 200pm, but this place really has the best vibes during the evening and was one of the few places with its quality of food in the area.

It’s just a shame that the ownership doesn’t seem to realize what a unique place to eat Exchange was. We probably won’t be coming back.

Great food.. great coffee.. and super laid back spot for laptop work or coming with friends

One of the best locally-run coffee shops in town. The coffee drinks are delicious and they have a great tea menu. The Exchange is known for its waffles and crepes, both savory and sweet-they don't disappoint! My favorite is the Wisconsin Pride!

Nice place with good atmosphere. It's a little expensive for what you get though. For a latte they charge for flavor and charge $1 for plant-based milk so my $4 coffee ends up being more like $6. Breakfast here can be $30+ easily for two people, two coffees and a small food item each.

Absolutely LOVE this place! They have friendly, happy and super kind employees. They make a point to not only remember you but what you like and go far above and beyond standard to make your experience enjoyable. Even with everything going on, they managed to keep the place feeling comfortable and as close to normal as they could! It is my favorite place to go in all this chaos and they have made my terrible days so much better.

Kind of need to break this place down into three points: aesthetic, food, and the shop. The design is amazing, honest. A lot of dark relaxing colors and natural light coming in throughout. I could easily sit a relax for a long time here. I had the savory crepes (mushroom, chives, spinach) and was very impressed. It is not a huge pile of food but is very satisfactory. The little shop inside donates profits to fight human trafficking. Lots of soaps, jewelry and children's clothes, all of which fit in the rest of the restaurants vibe. One complaint is that a lot of floor space is dedicated to very large tables. Great to bring a group of 4+ but those two tops go fast! If you like places like Kavarna then you will probably enjoy it here too

I went here for lunch. They don't have much of a selection, and when I got my food it was expensive and didn't taste very good. Won't be going back.

This place is a great brunch spot. The coffee is very good as is the service. Their menu might appear short but when you see that you can mix up any combination you want it is easy to see how they have options for all. Their kitchen is from scratch but it is well worth the wait

One of the cutest places. Both the food and atmosphere were delicious. The place is plenty big to bring a small group and quiet enough to grab a seat and work.
