I think that people forget that there are only 4 guys that serve the entire bar for the entire hall! While the drinks may take a while to order they are definitely worth the wait. I always have a great time when I come here and always leave better than I came, thanks to the great bartender Urale; he's the best! read more

My friend wanted to grab a drink, so we made a quick stop at this crowded place 1/28/25 around 6pm. It was super busy, and there was only one bartender, which was a bit of a bummer since it meant we had to wait longer. I really admired how he managed everything; some people can't keep it together under that kind of pressure, but he stayed cool and still managed to crack a joke or two while mixing drinks. Just wanted to show some love. read more

Such a fun little spot to stop by for a drink! We were on vacation so visited during a weekday morning so it was just opening up, but the locale looks promising. For my Fort Lauderdale folks: this is similar to Sistrunk Marketplace. This specific bar had creative drinks which is always a plus for me. My margarita was made with love and care. The bartender was wonderful. It's also really nice that it's a bit open to the outdoors and has great ceiling to floor window walls that allow you to enjoy the beautiful weather. I look forward to visiting again! read more

It was fairly quiet on a Friday night; ambiance is all over the place. There's a buzz around the food hall while and a lot of people picnicking outside on the lawn. We ordered our drinks to go as you're free to roam around their premises outside. Their beverage options are simple but priced accordingly; if you want a cocktail or glass of mediocre wine at a fair price, this is good stop. read more

We had an awesome time at The Exchange bar. The bartender and the manger, Michael Pouncy really took care of us. The Exchange has a great energy and we had a nice view of all the festivities going on outside. We will definitely be going back next time we're in Dallas. read more

Food was awesome, bar service was the worst I have had in recent memory. Me and my guest had an empty beer glass for almost 10 minutes while the bartenders talked to eachother and hung out on the other side of the bar. When one finally came to me to get my order he dropped a lime in my glass with his bare hand and proceeded to place another on the rim of the glass like nothing happened. Decent happy hour prices but if you're looking to be served and attended to I recommend going elsewhere. read more

Top Notch! Ian, Eureal, Manny, Mgt all outstanding. The best spot in the Exchange. Please visit, grab a drink (or two) and relax.

What's good? The beer is not astronomically high. Most are on tap, choose 12 or 16 oz. If your gonna roam around they will provide plastic glasses. Cans are also reasonably priced and the M-F happy hour is really good. What I don't like? They batch all of their cocktails. Do you want a batched ole fashion? Batched means they premake the entire cocktail and it sits in a dispenser until dispensed. Why is this bad? Because certain ingredients tend to infuse at a different rate and grow stronger. For instance we ordered a "millions of peaches" cocktail which has ginger and citrus. The ginger overpowered the cocktail to the point where we couldn't taste the citrus. Batching is okay if it is consumed quickly, my guess is that it sits for a lot longer then it should. Batching also allows them to use cheaper quality ingredients. If you look at the menu they don't indicate what whisky or gin is used but for vodka they are proud of New Amsterdam Vodka and Hornitos Tiquilla both of which are cheaper spirits which they charge craft cocktail prices for. My advice; if your gonna batch don't batch the entire cocktail. There a some parts they should be mixed, stirred or shaken when the drink is ordered. To each it's own, but not a place for me for cocktails. The beer selection is great and hands down a great happy hour. read more

Had a horrible experience last night 10.02.23 , from the bartender (White, blonde, male). Me and my date went in around 9:30p. High top chairs at bar were full so we sat at the bar in the low chairs at the bar (no handicap accessible notice or sticker is there, and again there were chairs there) . We sat for 10-15 not being served but watched the bartender offer more drinks to those who were already there. We were never acknowledged at all but figured he was just trying to close out these people's tabs as they closed in 30 min. But I figured if the bar was closed, he would at least tell us as he had come within 10ft of us SEVERAL times, so it's not like he didn't know we were there. A new group of patrons comes in AFTER US and the same bartender serves them immediately. At that point we were fed up. I asked the bartender if there was a reason why we weren't being served but this new group was. He asked how long we had been sitting there and stated he hadn't seen us (he definitely saw us many time and even the bar back at least greeted us when he saw us too), I told him we had been there waiting for 10-15. He then says well it's because I wasn't sure why y'all were sitting in the handicapped seats (wait, you just said you didn't see us, now you're saying you saw us an were questioning our seating choice, which is it?. Also again, no handicap sticker, there were chairs there and let's not act like there was a line of handicapped people waiting to be seated), I told him well nobody asked us why we were sitting there. His response: I have the right to refuse service to anybody, so I'm refusing you service. My response: okay thank you. Couple next to us: their eyes were truly HUGE in disbelief. The security guard: apologized to me and my date on our way out. We took our business to the country bar next door, where SERVICE WAS AMAZING! The couple mentioned came over, bought us drinks, apologized to us for how the bartender ignored us then refused us service. The four of us (me, my date and the other couple) won't be back. You guys should consider training your bartender to simply own his actions when committing a service failure. Despite his failure we would have still ordered drinks, paid and tipped well. His loss and the exchange's loss as I visit there 2-3x a week but will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

Awesome indoor area to eat and drink next to the AT&T discovery district in downtown Dallas, Tx. Not sure about the address as the one I saw was off Commerce. The bar tender was super sweet. I asked for a Bloody Mary with no alcohol as my cardiologist instructed me to increase my salt intake and alcohol gives me a headache. (I didn't tell him all that part ofcourse) And he gave it to me for free! I was so excited and it was the BEST Bloody Mary ever! read more

Stopped at the bar during happy hour- around 3:30 pm( $3 off cocktails)- I asked the bartender for a suggestion- a stronger drink. She tells me that the Pineapple Ranch water is stronger than the traditional margarita and she can add a double shot to make it stronger. I'm fine with that since I wanted a strong drink. I pay for my drink - which is $19 btw. She tells me- "Be careful I added 3oz." -It's not until the last sip that I've figured out I just got cheated.

The Exchange Bar - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I was expecting much better cocktails than what I got until I found out that they batch their cocktails and that's when the poor quality made sense. These are cocktails I'd expect from a low-dollar restaurant, not a place that bills itself as a cocktail bar. Only reason for the second star was that the staff was amicable. Outside of that just order a beer and keep moving. read more

Omg this bar is so much fun. The drinks are great and the bartenders are amazing. Andrew and his luxurious man bun, Crystal and her sparkling personality are the reason I'll be returning. My friends and I always have such a great time here. Best bar in Dallas! read more

Staff is extremely rude. I am never one to complain or write horrible reviews but I couldn't not say something. The bartender was so rude to a good friend of mine we all sat down to get a drink. He asked the prices of a couple of drinks and we a dead serious face asked "do you want me to tell you the price of the whole menu" and rolled her eyes. I have never been so appalled in my life. We went up the street to the Pegasus city Brewery and they were way more than accommodating. We told multiple couples not to visit this place and the bartenders said they have heard this before. Unless you want to be treated like complete trash I recommend not coming to this establishment. read more

Love this place! Great venue for a drink and dinner. Perfect for date night or for the whole family! Definitely check this place out. Cocktails and beer on tap are efficient and delicious. read more

The 1 and only drink I had at this place stayed on my mind! I got the Pineapple Ranch Water for myself, and my boyfriend got the Dos XX and he also said it tasted really good. It was a great location for our family, and we enjoyed the Exchange Hall all around. Definitely a nice place at all hours of the day! read more

I love the atmosphere here and the service is always great especially with bartender, Deagan! She remembers your face and what you like to drink after meeting you for the first time. This place is great for any type of vibe you're wanting and the variety of drinks is definitely a plus! read more

I don't even know where to begin. This is one of the best bars with the best service in the downtown Dallas area. Every time I sit down I am amazed with the quality of drinks,service, and vibe. If there was a supermodel of bars. This is it. Also, Deagan might be one of the greatest bartenders of the 21st century. read more

You are a trash establishment that denies patrons service for staying and nursing their drinks. You treat customers like expired parking meters even on slow days. Ive never been cut off at a bar, and this is most certainly the last time we will return. My friends and I have supported you for the last month religiously and this will be the absolute last time you can count on any penny from us. Shame on you, especially when you cant tell me who cut us off. read more

This is the place to be when in downtown Dallas if you want to be where everybody knows your name :) bartenders and staff are very welcoming! read more

Having lived downtown for almost 13 years, was great to have new great place with a friendly staff! Deagan was amazing !!!

This place is located in the heart of AT&T discovery district of Dallas AT&T hall. Place is small and only carries drinks section as there are a lot of food options in the building. The bartender was friendly and initial service was ok & at times felt sluggish. They have a limited selection in drink. Pricing was a bit high for a small island bar counter & probably normal for that location@ $8 per a glass of beer. Knocked off 2 stars coz of the other guy who was very annoying in the barista who does nothing but walking all around as If he was busy doing everything. We asked for the check & to close the tab, the guy said on it and completely ignored us. We sat there doing nothing to get the other guys attention to close the tab. If he's is the owner, there is no wrong in doing something when the other one is doing everything. And if he's is getting trained, he should be made to do things rather than look what the other guy is doing and roam around. read more

Chill vibes, Cool area, Good people. All the bartenders and management staff are always super kind to me. Swing through if you're in downtown. read more

Super cool environment where you aren't limited by one menu (all food vendors at the exchange; you can quickly grab and then chill at the bar) and the drinks are legit. Bartenders are friendly and accommodating, even when patrons are rude and don't deserve it. Staff overall have a family feel to them that they include their patrons in on the regular. Nice atmosphere indoor with outdoor seating available in a perfect part of Dallas to people watch. Definitely a must visit stop for locals and those traveling. read more

If you are over 22 yrs old... don't bother. The bartenders strategically look over anyone over that is not a 21 yr old dressed in Forever 21. Save your hard earned "old people" money for a bartender that provides good customer service regardless of age. read more
