What an adorable shop that has much more than coffee and tea. Obviously that’s the focus here, but it’s more than just a variety of loose coffee and teas. They also sell the accessories that go along with it such as brewers, mugs, and diffusers as well as bulk spices and other cooking accessories. If you are a do it yourself coffee brewer, they have lots of devices such as pour over, french press, and immersion brewers. It’s a bit tight in the store so I’m always afraid I’ll knock something over, but it’s really a fun place to browse and pick up a treat or too. It’s like a book store the caffeine (or if you will caffeine free) minded folks. They also serve drinks to go both hot and iced.

Such a great selection of coffee beans from around the world which the staff is more than welcome to describe and prescribe. They will even grind it to your preferred granularity. There is also a great selection of coffee accessories. Lastly, they have a full service coffee bar which has great quality at a price lower than Starbucks or Intelligensia. I go out of my way to come here.

Small, local mom & pop coffee shop . . . count me in. Coffee & Tea Exchange has a great selection of beans that you can purchase whole or have ground. The quality is just as good (or better) than what you get from Intelligentia but reasonably priced. They also sell fresh spices in quantities you might actually go through. Wonderful, local business Im happy to support.

I visited during their recent 40-year anniversary event, scoring a discounted pound of their special coffee blend along with a free coffee mug! Its a lively place on Broadway with an endless selection of coffees, teas and brewing gadgets. This is a destination spot on Broadway, a great place to explore and support local businesses!

The smell of coffee, tea, and spices that hits you at the door of this place is amazing. I wish they offered a candle that smelled like that! At least you can take home some of their rotating (and delicious) selection of coffee. Also a go to place for fun coffee or tea apparatus and gifts.

Ive only ever bought tea from here, but they have an amazing (large) selection of coffee too. I found their tea is pretty good quality and their prices are definitely cheaper than their rival tea shops (e.g., Adaigo). Staff is pretty friendly and Ive only ever had good experiences here.

This is my coffee and tea place. I buy spices here sometimes too. Knowledgeable staff, great service. Ready to drink coffee and tea menu too. Awesome selection. You can order online too, but Id rather visit since Im local and can avoid shipping charges.

Great place to swing in and get your beans or leaves. The smell is incredible when you walk in and just gets better every time you open a barrel or have them show you a jar of tea. They also sell unroasted beans if you have an inkling to roast your own.

I get all of my coffee from here. They have a huge selection of locally roasted beans from around the world. Just make your selection and tell them how you want it ground if at all. The prices are great compared to buying coffee at the grocery store.

Very helpful service from knowledgable staff. They had some tasty rooibos teas, a solid selection of other loose leaf teas, a great and reasonably priced selection of bulk herbs and spices, and a terrific selection of whole bean coffee.

Quality, kindness, great service, locally owned....who the hell needs a international coffee monopoly chain store?!?! Try the vegan baked goods....oh and a cheddar chive scone if youre interested in something less sweet. .

This place is a tea (and coffee) lovers paradise. By as much or little as you want, as many flavors as you want. They also have tons of fun tins, mugs and other tea/coffee drinking implements. So many things to choose from!

Great place for a coffee and tea lover. They have a huge selection of whole beans and loose tea. The staff is very knowledgeable and can answer any question. They have a bunch of accessories for you or gifts for others.

My go-to place for a fine selection of flavored black teas. Its a hike from my neighborhood but well worth it! Ive tried the coffee in the past and its amazing as well. Great selection of tea/coffee-related accessories.

Ive been coming here for about 10 years and have been happy with the whole bean coffee that i bought here and the service. The code is high quality and the prices are very reasonable, especially the sale prices.

There is no place you can get fresh grounds that are hand made like this place. They also have a an assortment of teas and spices. . Also, great for a unique tasting coffee or tea on the go.

I come in here to buy loose teas a lot. The aromas are great, and the staff helps you find exactly what you need. I love their Calming Sleep Tea, Cold Tea Herbal, and Happy Throat Herbal.

I go to this for the loose leaf chamomile tea, the coffee bean flavors (maple walnut) and the individual caramels. Employees are always helpful and friendly. Items are consistently good.

Great little coffee spot. Decent lattes and brewed coffee. However; the coffee bean selection is what is most impressive.
