Today my Sister and Brother in law got married and had an afternoon tea reception in the 1849 private dining room. It was a very friendly and intimate atmosphere in the beautiful and tasteful historic dining room attached to Exchange Coffee. The cakes and sandwiches were delicious and the staff took care of us wonderfully. I highly recommend Exchange for any small celebrations.”
